* belly measuring 29cm - slightly under the expected size, but i have been measuring this way the entire time... it seems as though he baby has taken up residence in the space formerly inhabited by my stomach and lungs... :)
* total weight gain of 21 lbs.... i know it's good news... but working in the fitness industry for the last 9 years, i have never celebrated weight gain, so it still seems strange.... and my once de-activated sweet tooth is back in full force, so i have no doubt that we will continue to grow and grow in these last 8 weeks!
*baby's heart rate was 150bpm! still going strong! the baby seems to LOVE to practice his zumba and martial arts moves between the hours of 3-6am.... must be in his genes to love that early morning workout!
*on the exercise front, things have definitely slowed down for me....i still walk the dog every day, and have been taking water aerobics twice a week. I still try to do some sort of yoga every day, mostly on my own, as i am down to teaching just once a week now....
Here are some pics of the growing belly....
Going...
Going....
Gone!
and yes.... linus still managed to get his little face in the picture... and i have officially lost my toes! the belly has taken up lots of real estate... and this girl that could once bend in half and kiss her knees now needs assistance with tying my shoes! haha!
Oh! Here's one last picture... i got carried away with the fall decorating this week....
he wasn't too thrilled...

I'm so excited about all of your current pregger-stats! You're in the home-stretch! I want to see an actual pic of you now!
You got the biggest compliment as far as it goes for a prego girl......and I repeat," Dear Lord she doesnt' even look pregnant from the back...I hate her!" I want to assure you this was said in love. Can't wait to meet little Bumstead!!
Love you!
