28 Weeks

How Far Along: 28 weeks today.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: As of the end of last month 10 pounds, but I am sure that will change when I head to my appointment on Friday!

How big is the Baby:

Gender: It's a boy and his name is Jett!

Maternity Clothes: I still have been living in non-maternity dresses!

Best Moment of the Week: Finally making a choice on the bedding...it's so super cute! Oh and finishing up on my registry...it was definitely a task, ha!

Stretch Marks: Yes, but still trying everything I can to prevent anymore from popping up!

Movement: Yes, especially in the early mornings and at night.

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

What I miss: Nothing really...just enjoying every moment of having my sweet babe inside of me!

What I am looking forward to: Decorating the nursery.

Symptoms: Still getting heartburn from pretty much anything, but as long as I nip it early enough with some Tums I am usually okay.

Food Cravings: Root Beer and Hot Glazed Donuts from Krispy Kreme...not together though of course! The craving for donuts just started this week and is so weird for me because I have never been a huge fan of donuts. Don't get me wrong they are certainly delish, but I have always just felt like they were too sweet!

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

Signs of Labor: Thankfully, no!

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!

20 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 20 weeks...I can't believe that I am halfway through! I feel like these first 20 weeks have gone by so fast!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: At my last doctor's visit still NO weight gain, but I am sure that will change when I see the doctor on Friday! I feel like I have "grown" a bunch in the last two weeks for sure!

How Big is the Baby: The size of a cantaloupe

Gender: We are 98.9% percent sure that it is a BOY, but there will be no doubt about it on Friday at my next doctors appointment!

Maternity Clothes: I have been wearing non-maternity dresses and gaucho type pants, but have definitely invested in some maternity shirts. All my pre-preggers shirts are too short now!

Best Moment of the Week: This will definitely be finding out for sure that we are having a little boy on Friday! I am ready to start doing some planning/decorating.

Stretch Marks: Negative

Movement: NONE YET, ugh! Everyone keeps asking, but so far...no out of the ordinary feelings in the tummy region.

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

What I miss: I get SO hot SO fast! Pre-preggers I was always super tolerable of the heat, but since I've been preggers I feel like I get hot SO quickly!

What I am looking forward to: Finding out FOR SURE {without a single doubt} what gender the baby is at the end of the week...yippie!

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

Food Cravings: I have been craving salad and sandwiches like crazy! I don't necessarily think that it is specifically anything about them other than they just seem light to me. I am not into anything super heavy sounding at the moment!

Belly Button: Still an Inny

Signs of Labor: Thankfully, no!

I hope that everyone is having a fabulous Monday!

13 Weeks

Here's my super bloated belly at 13 weeks!

{Please ignore the lack of makeup and hair in a ponytail...it has literally been raining for 3 days}

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 13 weeks

Total Weight Gain/Loss: ZERO pounds, yippie!

How Big is the Baby: The size of a medium shrimp

Gender: We aren't sure yet...At my ultrasound last week, Dr. N said girl then a few seconds later said boy! In the end, he said that he couldn't get a good enough look {the baby wouldn't move} ,so he said that we'd know next time for sure.

Maternity Clothes: Not just yet...I think I may need to invest in some longer shirts very soon! I feel like my shirts are getting shorter by the day. My pre-preggers pants are still working just fine, but by the end of the day I feel like I need some comfy pants on for sure, ha!

Best Moment of the Week: Starting to feel less sickly with every passing day!

Stretch Marks: Negative

Movement: Nothing yet, but I wonder what it feels like...

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

What I miss: Being able to actually get hungry before having to eat! I have learned that if I can just eat before I feel hungry I won't feel sick at all, but if I feel hungry that usually turns into feeling super sickly.

What I am looking forward to: Finding out what gender the baby is at the end of the month...only 2 more weeks, yay!

Symptoms: I get heartburn from pretty much anything...even water! For some reason I have had a headache for the last 3 days, ugh! I am still super tired by the end of the day, but I think that is getting a little better.

Food Cravings: Nothing specific besides Mexican food, but that is pretty much normal for me! I am definitely not into anything greasy right now for sure!

Belly Button: Inny

Signs of Labor: Negative
