22 Weeks


How far along? 22 weeks
Total weight gain: +5
Maternity clothes? some of my clothes still fit and some don't.  Wearing the bella band more lately and favoring my jersey fold over skirts and any pants with a stretchy waistband.
Stretch marks? none yet and I hope to never get them!
Sleep: lately I don't know what's wrong with me, I wake up in the middle of the night and can not fall back asleep for at least an hour more!  The night after we registered I woke up at 3 AM worrying about which stroller and car seat we should get and didn't fall back asleep until after 5!
Best moment this week: getting the registry started (i was really dreading going and doing this but it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be) and feeling her move more and more.  It is seriously the best feeling! Each morning I lay there and wait for her to start moving.  Best part was when Erick felt her moving around! His face lit up like a Christmas tree :-)
Miss Anything? Hot yoga and boot camp!
Movement: YES!!! and I love it!!! She started moving the other day when she heard Erick's voice :-)
Food cravings: nothing crazy, still loving fruits and my green smoothies
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope
Gender: BABY GIRL!!!!
Labor Signs: No way
Symptoms: some heartburn, back aches a little, crazy dreams 
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: happy and emotional (like crying everytime I see that Publix commercial with the little girl and pregnant mom cooking!) and I'm kind of glad Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice are over for this season because I don't think I have enough tissues to make it through any more episodes!
Looking forward to: a lot of things- Our next appointment this week, the curtains for the nursery that I ordered coming in, ripping up the carpet and starting to get the new floors done in her room and going to the condo with the family for Memorial day weekend :-)

20 Weeks

"Oh, we're half way there
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer!"

This is the song that keeps popping in my head.  20 weeks is 1/2 way there!!!  So crazy to think that I'm half way done with my pregnancy.  The first 12 weeks seemed like the longest weeks of my life and now I'm thinking I only have 20 (give or take a few) weeks to go. 



How far along? 20 weeks
Total weight gain: +1
Maternity clothes? wearing some maternity dresses to work... my jeans still fit and some shorts still do.
Stretch marks? none yet and I hope to never get them! 
Sleep: sleep is pretty good.
Best moment this week: finding out our lil peanut is a girl! 
Miss Anything? i'll miss margaritas tonight when we go out for Cinco de Mayo lol
Movement: I'm pretty sure I've been feeling her move a little lately! It's awesome, feels likes flutters.  It doesn't happen a lot, just every now and then. 
Food cravings: nothing crazy, still loving fruits
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope
Gender: BABY GIRL!!!!
Labor Signs: No way 
Symptoms: starting to get some heartburn 
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: super happy and more relaxed after seeing her move all around on the ultrasound and hearing her heartbeat again (seriously it's my favorite sound!)
Looking forward to: Getting things together for nursery!!!
