Week 27: Baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with her legs extended. She's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing her eyes, and perhaps even sucking her fingers. With more brain tissue developing, baby's brain is very active now.
This coming Friday marks the beginning of my third trimester....WHAT?!?! How did that happen? I'm still feeling great, which is SO nice! Except I think that my hands are starting to get swollen cause my ring is fairly tight....is there anything you can do to not swell? Also, I think my feet have grown. Some people have said that they could just be swollen too, but I honestly think they have gotten longer, haha, I guess I'll know after the baby comes if my new bigger feet are here to stay :-) And the newest thing is my sore bellybutton, yes, you heard me correctly, I said sore bellybutton. Who knew a bellybutton could be sore? So if I see you and you touch my belly just be sure to steer clear of the bellybutton...thanks!

Usually your feet getting 'longer' is because your arches are flattening (because of the preggo weight, lol!). Also, to keep swelling in check just keep hydrated and at the end of the day elevate your limbs! I don't have any other tricks beyond that. :(
You look so beautiful Em! I also get the sore bellybutton :(
so cute, i just want to meet that baby!
I will avoid your bellybutton at all costs.
