Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 25 weeks, 5 days
Size of baby: about 13 1/2 inches long and about a pound and a half, not much more than an average rutabaga. (according to babycenter.com) **where do they come up with the foods they compare the sizes to? a rutabaga? ha!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: I've gained 15.5 lbs total as of my appointment at 23 weeks.
Maternity Clothes: of course! I had to buy maternity swimsuits for our beach vacation in two weeks....yikes. That's all I have to say about that.
Gender: girl - Aubrey Lauren
Movement: She has been a wiggle worm this week! However, I don't think Rhett has felt her move in quite some time because she stops as soon as he puts his hand on my belly!
Sleep: Still having to get up to go to the bathroom several times a night, so I never really feel like I get a solid night's sleep anymore. Also, I just cannot get very comfortable at night now. I don't recall having this problem this early on with Caleb.
Symptoms: still mostly the same....having to pee all.the.time; some pressure/achiness, starving and having to snack more; some very mild reflux. No more Braxton Hicks this week, though.
What I miss: right now, I am mostly missing being able to sleep on my back.
Cravings: still pretty much the same...any fruit, ice cream, other sweets, juice...probably why I gain so much weight! :) also, peanut butter and jelly!
Best moment this week: Aubrey has been moving a lot!
What I am looking forward to: can't think of anything in particular going on this week...just trying to enjoy what's left of my time with just Caleb!
