28/29 week pregnancy update.

This week's update is joined onto my 29th week update. I've had a busy week and completely forgot to write for week 28, but nothing different really has happened so I figured I'd just join them together.

Symptoms wise I'm struggling a bit. Heartburn and acid are taking over, and some days I can eat like a horse.. whilst others I can't even eat a toddler portion. SPD has taken over, which isn't helped by the problems my body already has, so I'm in agony each day. Physio are fitting me with a tubigrip for the whole of my stomach to hopefully gold my pelvis in place and strengthen my uterus to keep baby in longer! Hormones have been a little pants this week, although I've done good just letting them out and telling people how I feel. I guess now we're just 11 weeks away, anxiety is kicking in a little and I just need my baby here, safe in my arms.

Sleep wise I'm doing good, by the time I've struggled for a day my body just gives up and lets me sleep a full night- which is lovely. 

My 28 week midwife appointment went great. Baby was head down and engaged, with a very strong heartbeat (160!!) Urine/bloods etc were fine and she wasn't concerned about anything! I'll next be seeing her to write my birth plan!!

Depression wise I'm doing good. We're one week into no medication and I've been feeling good. I think the sun has helped, aswell as time alone aith Triston whilst Alyssa's been at nursery- to talk about any worries etc before they build up. For once I'm in control and I hope it stays that way!

That's all for this week (and last) All still going good and baby is hanging in there, making me feel like a whale! :-)
