23 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 23 weeks today.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: At my last doctor's visit I forgot to ask...I think that they act like you haven't gained any weight unless it's a problem, so I am guessing that there was gain just not too much.

How Big is the Baby: The size of a papaya

Gender: It's a BOY!

Maternity Clothes: I have been living in non-maternity dresses and gaucho type pants!

Best Moment of the Week: Feeling him move all around in my tummy! This actually happened for me right before my 21st week. I feel him move most in the morning and at night while I am laying still in bed.

Stretch Marks: Negative

Movement: Definitely and I love it!

Sleep: Sleeping is still fine, but it's still sometimes tricky getting comfortable.

What I miss: Being able to bend over and get out of bed with ease! It has been the strangest feeling to move around and get up from a sitting or laying down position with a ball that does not move attached to my body!

What I am looking forward to: Decorating the nursery and registering!

Symptoms: Still getting heartburn from pretty much anything...even water! Other than that I feel super fantastic!

Food Cravings: I have been craving vegetables constantly! I think I had steamed squash and zucchini three times last week, ha!

Belly Button: Still an inny, but it's getting flatter my the day!

Signs of Labor: Thankfully, no!

I hope that everyone is having a fabulous Monday!

  4. Congratulations. My daughter and her husband are due in December with my first grandchild. They aren't finding you what it is, they want to be surprised. At first I thought it was a great idea but I want to know! Best of luck to you.

  6. Congrats on your baby!!! What an exciting time! We just welcomed our 2nd little bundle in March - love following pregnancy journeys and remembering all the fun moments :) November is a perfect month - my daughter was born in November so by the time summer rolled around, she was old enough to play in the water and sit and do things. Hope you have a great week!
