25 Weeks!?

Holy moly, I can't believe I'm 25 weeks already! Where is the time going? I plan to be pregnant for another 13-15 weeks, but it's hard to believe that in just 12 short weeks (that's 3 months, people!), I will be full term. AND, we've passed V-day (24 weeks). Although, I want to keep this little guy cooking for much longer, it's still a pretty cool milestone to reach:)

How far along are you? 25 weeks

Total weight gain: I was up 5 lbs at my appointment this week, for a total of, uh, 17?

How big is baby?: According to babycenter, about 13 inches and a pound and a half! The size of a rutabaga...lol!

Maternity clothes: Mostly everything.

Stretch marks?: Still none, yay!

Sleep?: Sleep is starting to get more difficult. I think I wake up about every half hour to switch positions because everything on my body hurts. Plus I pee 3-4 times a night.

Best moment this week?: Getting the nursery furniture put together and hearing his beautiful heartbeat:)

Movement?: Oh yeah. He's pretty mellow most of the morning/day and then his movement really picks up in the early evening. He's been bouncing off the walls in there!

Food cravings?: I've been craving belgian waffles for the past few days...

Food aversions?: Bell peppers. That's about it!

Labor signs?: Nope.

Belly button in or out?: Still innie. Maybe it'll stay that way?

What I miss: Breaking a good sweat!

What I'm looking forward to: Nothing right now, really. Just getting stuff ready for the baby!

I still need to take a 25 week picture, but here's 24 weeks:

23 Weeks

Oops, it's been awhile! I guess I haven't had anything too exciting to update. Actually, I take that back. Since I last posted we had the anatomy scan (everything looked great and it's definitely still a boy!), we registered, and we got our nursery furniture. Not even close to having the nursery ready, but that's ok. We still have plenty of time.

How far along are you? 23 weeks

Total weight gain: Haven't weighed myself since last appointment when I was up 12 lbs total. But that was two and a half weeks ago so, yeah...

How big is baby?: He should be about a foot long and over a pound by now!

Maternity clothes: Most definitely. Getting sick of wearing the same 3 pairs of jeans, though...

Stretch marks?: Nope. I read that if you don't have any by 24 or 25 weeks, you most likely won't get any? Is this true??

Sleep?: Sleep has been ok...when my husband isn't snoring! Grrrr.

Best moment this week?: Feeling his movement really pick up the past few days.

Movement?: See above:)

Food cravings?: Still Subway sandwiches and spicy foods. The past few days I've been on an orange kick again.

Food aversions?: Bell peppers. That's about it!

Labor signs?: Nope.

Belly button in or out?: Still innie, but pretty flat.

What I miss: My back not hurting.

What I'm looking forward to: My appointment in a week and a half.

Since I missed a few weeks, here's a couple pictures.

I think I look bigger at 22 weeks. I think it's time to retire the horizontal stripes. Haha!
