A little late: 25 Weeks Bumpdate

Hello All, I missed my 24 week update due to some things going on, so I figured I'd post a 25 week update, enjoy! How far along? 25 Weeks 6 days How big is baby? 1 lb 12 oz (he is in the 58th percentile, apparently). According to the bump.com he is the size of a cauliflower. Maternity clothes? Yes and I will need to get more soon. The ones I bought over the summer are getting quite snug, I'll need to get bigger clothes for the fall/winter.  Sleep:  Pretty terrible. I can't fall asleep easily anymore, I feel exhausted so I go to bed, then when I am in bed I can't fall asleep. I am up every few hours, I kind of feel like a zombie.   Best moment this week: Hearing his little heartbeat and passing my glucose test  Movement: He is a mover and a shaker. I think he's still pretty small where I don't necessarily feel him unless I'm paying attention, but he is definitely getting stronger in there.  Food cravings: I've been craving SOMETHING but I can't f

Bumpdate: 23 Weeks

I haven't really been updating weekly on my pregnancy and I figure I should probably start (hey better late than never..right?) this way I can look back and say "Ah, what a joyous time that was" when baby is here. :) So for your reading pleasure! How far along? 23 Weeks 5 Days How big is baby? Last time I went to the doctor he was almost a pound. Per thebump.com he is the size of a grapefruit or an ear of corn.  Total weight gain/loss: ha...yeah..right. Not posting that ;) Maternity clothes? That's all that fits these days!  Sleep: Not great. I have been waking up every night at least twice to pee, try to get comfortable or from baby having a dance party. I still don't get why people say "sleep now, because you won't when he gets here" just not happening. Best moment this week: Hm. Probably last night when I felt him moving around and kicking in there. Movement: Starting to feel  him daily and a lot stronger! :)  Food cravings: None r

It's still summer?

Taking the dogs for a walk this morning was amazing, the cool crisp air was perfect for a Fall morning. Except wait, it's not Fall..it's still summer? Really? It sure doesn't feel like it right now. I know a lot of people have been complaining about this weather, but I LOVE it. Fall is my favorite season of all, it's perfect. I'm so excited for the trees to start turning colors and to bake pumpkin and apple pies. I like the summer a lot, but I think this year it really has worn me down. The heatwave(s) did a number on me and I am just ready for the cooler weather. Sorry to all you summer lovers out there, this pregnant girl just loves the cool weather.  Moving on to a general update:  Things have been going well, I'm feeling really good these days.I am 22 weeks, 5 days, it's going by so fast! Although, I'm really tired lately, but I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I am not sleeping through the night. Ever. My belly has gotten A LOT b
