30 Weeks... A Pregnancy Update
My belly turned 30 weeks the other day... yes THIRTY!!! That means there are only 10 weeks left of this pregnancy (or possibly even less!)
I cannot even believe it is so close! I've heard the next ten weeks will drag on and on... but so far this pregnancy has gone by so fast, so I feel I can use the extra time (though I won't be saying that after a few more weeks!)
From now on baby will put on 1/2 a pound EACH WEEK, which is absolutely crazy! I feel her moving around a lot (she's our little wiggles), and I can tell she is getting bigger and more cramped in my belly.
An Update...
Due Date? September 2nd
Gender? Girl!
Do you have a name picked out? Yes... but I'm not sharing it over a blog just yet!
Cravings? Cheetos (which is "great" because I'm lactose intolerant *insert sarcasm*), and DONUTS (all the time!)
FIRST TRIMESTER
Did you have any clues that you might be pregnant? I was craving curly fries and Arby's sauce like CRAZY! That was like all I wanted to eat! That craving continued through the first couple months of pregnancy.
When did you find out? 2 days after Christmas- best present ever!Who did you tell first? My sister Emily and her husband- we broke the news to them via SnapChat (classy right!)
How did you tell your parents? We gave them the book How to Babysit a Grandpa and wrote in the cover "The best dad's get promoted to Grandpa!" Husband's parents got it right away, my parents had a little trouble picking up on the hint ;)
Did you get sick? No- THANKFULLY! I got queasy a lot, but not sick!
Most annoying symptom? Having to pee all the time!!
Did you have a gender prediction? Yes. I thought we were having a boy!
When did you share the news? We told our families at 10 or 11 weeks and we posted on Instagram at 13 weeks.
SECOND TRIMESTER
![]() |
at about 11 weeks and then at 17 weeks |
When did you find out the gender? We couldn't wait! So we went to a clinic in Provo that did the early gender checks at 16 weeks and found out she is a girl!
Babymoon? YES! We went to London, Paris, and Rome after we graduated! London was our favorite! I was 21 weeks.

At the Tower of London! |
Third Trimester
Are you starting to get uncomfortable? Yes, of course! Especially when trying to sleep.
Are you hot? Yes, very if I am outside (hello, it's summer!), but thankfully air conditioning exists!!
Are you nesting? I'm not sure when "nesting" is technically supposed to start... but I feel I have been in nesting mode the whole pregnancy (on and off). Mostly it involves me deep cleaning and getting rid of stuff!
What are you doing with the nursery? I am SO Excited to share the nursery when we get it finished! The colors are mint, peach, and gold with base colors of white and gray! So cute! I want it to feel peaceful and girly, and I love sitting in there imagining her being there! I can't wait to share pictures!
Have you had a baby shower yet? Nope! But we have a couple coming up in the next couple months! We are using a couple themes from the printable pack of showers from the Dating Divas! SO CUTE!
And that's about it! A quick rundown on the pregnancy so far... which has honestly been pretty great! (I for sure can't complain!) Here's hoping for a smooth next ten weeks! (cross your fingers for us!)
