T minus 11 weeks and counting

Dear Conor,

This week is your 29th week in my stomach.  You have become much more active in the mornings and evenings but I have also noticed you at various points of the day.  Your kicks are also becoming much stronger (please be gentle!).  Another interesting thing is that I can often tell which position you are in because I can sometimes feel your head at my sides (but not all the time).

This week has been a tough one because I have had a LOT of heartburn.  If the old wives tales are correct this indicates that you will be born with a lot of hair - we shall see in a few weeks if this proves to be right in your case.

I have also had a lot of swelling in the last 2 weeks.  I had to go out and buy a new pair of work shoes because my fat little feet wouldn't fit in my nice brown heels - my wedding rings also don't fit my fingers.  Friends and family that don't see me on a daily basis also say that my face has gained a little weight. 

But, overall I would say that things are going pretty well for you and I and I am certain the next 10 weeks are going to seem to fly by.

xoxo
Mom
