How far along? 23 weeks 5 days
Size of baby: A papaya (8 in, 1.2 lbs)
Total weight gain: About 12/13 pounds I think.
Maternity clothes: Still wearing dresses and skirts--although I need to shop for school clothes soon! I have only one pair of maternity jeans, but I did order a belly band so hopefully I can wear some of my normal pants at least at the beginning of the semester.
Sleep: I actually have been sleeping fairly well lately. My husband actually made a box spring for our bed this week, and I have to say, what a difference! His old box spring did not fit up our stairs when he moved into our house, and so since last year, there has been no box spring haha.
Best moment of the week: Feeling the baby move a lot during the day!! When I first felt the baby move it was later at night (which made me nervous haha), but now I feel him/her throughout the day which is such a comforting feeling!
Movement: YES! Consistently now :)
Miss anything: Sometimes I miss feeling "normal"-- I have been tired/lethargic lately during the day so I miss feeling energetic, I miss that I can't sleep on my back (sleeping on your side gets tiring!), and I miss being able to help with house projects (specifically painting). While I certainly have things I miss, being pregnant is completely worth it. I honestly can't complain :)
Food aversions: Still nothing really!
Symptoms I have: Heartburn, constipation, tingly fingers and toes (so weird!), and occasional headaches.
Gender Predictions: Girl :)
Looking forward to: I am looking forward to my husband feeling the baby move more. He felt movement once, and I can't wait until he can feel it move more :)
