Pregnancy: 29 Weeks Bump Update
We are nearly 3/4 of the way done with this pregnancy! Its been flying by and before we know it, I will have a little baby in my arms! We have the nursery ready to go and I have packed my hospital bags as of this week. The last thing that there really is to do is to install the carseat, but we wont do that until 4 weeks to go. This week we did not have the kids so I caught up on a ton of work, worked on my pregnancy fitness app program, and did a private pasta making class with my husband which was a ton of fun. I cant wait to get the kids this weekend because we will be doing Halloween events and dressing up with the kids again this year.

Diet: Diet has been a lot better this week! Less sugar intake.
Best moment this week: There was not really an aha moment this week. I caught up on work, got an oil change for the GTR, had couple’s therapy and therapy on my own. Actually! There was one SUPER fun moment that I loved. I went to a private pasta making class with my friend Cali and husband. I got to make fettuccine noodles as well as sweet potato gnocchi! It was the best time and I think I would like to make my own homemade pasta often.

Notes:
I found out I was pregnant at just 3 weeks of pregnancy after we did our frozen embryo transfer. If you haven’t followed my IVF journey, check out my frozen embryo transfer blog and my egg retrieval blog. Long story short, my husband was infertile due to the structure of his reproductive system-his vas deferens were missing so IVF was the only way and it worked the first try!
I have not been pregnant in 8 years almost so it is wild that I am doing it all over again and hope to do it only fourth and final time in another two-three years. Wish us luck and love! I will be doing these pregnancy progression bump updates weekly so you can “grow” with me along with a bump photo + questions about my pregnancy.
Your trainer and friend,
