25 Weeks

July 5, 2012

Pregnancy Stats:

How Far Along: 25 weeks

Size of baby: Size of an eggplant, around 9.2 inches and 2 lbs

Total Weight Gain: 7 pounds...as of three weeks ago, definitely more now, this baby is a growing and I sure can feel it!

Gender: It's a GIRL!!!

Movement:  She has been moving around like crazy the past few days!  It is the craziest feeling.  She kicks so hard at times it hurts and other times I think she's having the time of her life in there.  I also think she had the hiccups today for this first time.  I felt a thump...thump...thump...thump...thump...

Sleep: I fall asleep ok, because I am so tired from getting up early from working, but I wake up earlier than I need to because alarms are going off and then I can't go back to sleep.  It's a bummer.

What I miss:  Running & enjoying coffee in the morning

Cravings: Anything sweet...mmm ice cream & brownies, I think my baby likes brownies too.

Symptoms: I can't really complain about anything right now.  Praise God for that!

Maternity Clothes: My pants definitely don't fit anymore.  I can't even come close to buttoning them because of how low she is, but I bought a belly band the other day and it has been a life saver!  Should have invested in that a long time ago, thats for sure!

Best Moment this week: Having my husband working at the same place with me!  I couldn't imagine this transition without him there.

I have to do the glucose test next week...Not gonna lie, I am a little nervous about it...Pretty sure I am going to fail with all the sweets I have been eating.  Think good thoughts pretty please...
