Hot Weather + Somersworth + 30 Weeks Pregnant

Holy craps it's hot... but I'm not complaining! I'm so excited for hot weather, however, I have to be careful not to let my body temp rise too much because Jack doesn't like that. He's not able to regulate his body temp, that's my job.


Josh and I did some yard work (because we have our very own yard!) and then Josh grilled some hamburgers for lunch. After that I was a little tired but not ready to go back in the house so I laid out in the back yard in the sun and it felt so good but it was very hot. I had a jug of water with me so I poured water over my head and belly. That kept my nice and cool in the hot sun. When I pulled my shirt up to expose my belly to the sun Jack would react to the light (he's able to see light through my tummy now) and start kicking. I was only out for maybe an hour because I didn't want to get too hot but it was awesome. After that Josh and I lounged in the shade for a bit. I ended up drinking 2 gallons of water yesterday, I think that's a new record!


He didn't move too much this past week which made me nervous (because he's normally very active) but he was moving enough to not raise any red flags. Yesterday I think he decided that he'd show me everything was okay because he moved ALL day long. It was a big relief to feel him acting like his normal little fetal self again.



Yesterday Jack found new places to poke me. his feet were up so high it felt like he could touch my heart... it was the weirdest feeling! He was also tickling my ribs that are right under my boobs. He's about 3 pound and 16 inches long. I can't believe he's getting so big! I can't wait to meet him!





(when viewing these pictures keep in mind that I live in Somersworth now so I can get away with it.)
