Pregnancy week 26


Total weight gain: my scale says 16, my doctor's scale says 14, so I guess 15?
Maternity clothes: No, only one pair of pants still button, so it's just a matter of hours
Miss anything: Not today :)
Movement: She has been very active. 

Food cravings: CHOCOLATE, which is probably why I've gained 5lbs in 3 weeks.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I had a meat aversion, but it seems to have gone away

Have you started to show yet: yes, I think she has really come forward this week.
Gender: Girl
Labor signs: Braxton Hicks contractions all the time. The doctor recommended we make sure I'm not dilating and thankfully I am not. We bumped my next visit up a week and we'll just keep monitoring.

This week: had the glucose test and as far as I know, I passed.

Belly button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On, but my feet have started swelling.

Happy or moody most of the time: Pretty happy.

Looking forward to: Summer and swimming. We head to the SBC soon , so I'm looking forward to catching up with friends.

Pregnancy update 21,22 &23 weeks

21 Weeks
22 Weeks


23 Weeks

Total weight gain: around 10. I actually think it is more or it's shaped differently because I've lost muscle tone.
Maternity clothes: No. I did have to bust out a hair tie one day this week. 
Best moment of this week: Anna Kate got to feel her move
Miss anything: Not today :)
Movement: She has been very active. I can feel maybe a head and a bottom now at the same time in two different spots.
Food cravings: Sour!! I'm still on a raspberry train and lemon is competing.
Anything making you queasy or sick: raw chicken has made me gag again

Have you started to show yet: yes

Happy or moody most of the time: Sentimental
