Weekly Check-In (28 weeks)

How far along? 28 weeks, 5 days
Weight gain/loss: +20 pounds, down 1 from last week. This is possibly because we're having a heat wave in NY and all I've done is sweat for the last week.
Maternity clothes? Yup, everything but sweats and the big t-shirts I sleep in.
Sleep? I'm still sleeping great! Totally jinxed the whole getting up to pee thing. I have been getting up at least once if not twice to go to the bathroom. It's really not a big deal though, I usually fall right back to sleep.
Best moment this past week?
It's been a rough week but I think I figured out the whole calve cramps thing. I added another 20oz of water to my day and they seem to have disappeared. That's a good thing!
Sex: We're having a boy!
Belly button in or out? In, but it's looking very little.
Movement: Lots and lots! Now Bill, my sister, my mom, and my mother in law have felt him kick :)
What I miss? I still really want a drink.
What I'm looking forward to this week: Getting the 3 hour glucose test over with and hopefully having a better week than last week. We started looking at baby names again and we're pretty much set between two of them. Of course I like one and Bill likes the other. I think I can bring him over to my side though!
Milestones: From babygaga.com, "your little explorer's eyes are doing lots of blinking this week because they’re now responding to light and dark!And in life-critical physical developments: your champ's tiny industrious bone marrow is now a major construction site for blood cells, while their super-cute adrenal glands are actually producing androgen and estrogen — which will stimulate your body to begin milk production."
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks here and there.
Picture: can't find my camera :( Who loses a camera. I'll try and take a decent picture with my phone later
Edit: Here's my crappy cell phone pic from 29 weeks
