How far along? 25 weeks 0 days!
Total weight gain/loss: At my doctors appointment last wednesday I had actually lost two pounds from when I got pregnant. I don't think it has changed much since then. I was kind of nervous about that because I knew I wasn't gaining much weight but my doctor didn't seem too concerned. He said that the baby needs to grow but I don't necessarily have to but that we will watch close and if I don't start gaining soon then he will do another ultrasound just to make sure the baby is still on track with her growth. (She was exactly where she should be at my 20 week appointment). It's sad that it makes me slightly happy with this because I was so worried that I was going to gain like 80 pounds while I was pregnant so I'm glad that isn't the case. (I'm not trying to not gain though, I still eat plenty).
Maternity clothes? I finally bought a pair of maternity pants at DI this last week and now I'm going to have to buy more. They are so much more comfortable than just trying to make it work with my other pants and my belly band.
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: I've been waking up a few times lately a night either because I have the worlds worst heartburn or because I need to go to the bathroom, but I actually am starting to feel so much less tired lately. I haven't had to nap almost at all this week.
Best moment this week: Several. Getting our nursery started on decorating by getting my dots put up. I love them! The baby has started to kick so hard lately every morning and night and I can feel it really well from the outside. It also tickles me from the inside so I laugh really hard every time. The fact that while the doctor was trying to count the heartbeat at our appointment the little stinker kept kicking the doppler like 4 times so it took him forever to get the reading. She's such a little pill already. I love her!! Also, last friday Colton cleaned my whole apartment spotless which I was really stressed about how messy it was so I'm pretty happy.
Miss anything? Not having heartburn every second of my life. I hope the rumor is true that the more heartburn you have the more hair your baby will have. If it is true then I will give birth to a gorilla.
Movement: YES!! So much, I honestly love it so much.
Food cravings: Not really anything. Maybe in'n'out burger and strawberries and cream frappacinos from starbucks but nothing else really, and even those not much.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope. I'm super grateful that part seems to have passed for me. No zofran for over two weeks now. I'll take it.
Have you started to show yet: Yep. I am most definitely starting to get a belly.
Gender: GIRL!!!
Labor signs: no
Bell button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? Definitely off. I can get it on once it a while but then it is crazy hard to get off so I just don't bother anymore. It makes me sad. My feet are actually starting to swell a little bit to. Not a ton but enough. I was hoping to avoid that part until the very end. I'm not sure what I will do about my work shoes.
Happy or moody most of the time: Mostly happy I think.
Looking forward to: We are going to stay in a condo this weekend with my family for conference. I seriously can't wait! Also, the baby shower that my mom and sister are throwing me is in less than three weeks. I love it and seriously can't wait until then. It makes things even more real!
Baby #2 is the size of a cantaloupe!
Her see-through skin is gradually becoming opaque.
And it's got a new pink glow, thanks to the small capillaries that have recently formed.
Baby #2 is the size of a cauliflower!
She's enjoying her new sense of equilibrium--she now knows which way is up and which way is down.
She's growing more fat, and more hair too!!
