Total weight gain: 23ish lbs
Best moment of the week: Buying fun things for baby girl. :) She is so fun to shop for! Bows, clothes galore, etc. Also, really getting into "looking pregnant" these days and I love that it's finally obvious to people. The looks I get are great, and I can't say "thank you" enough to all the kind words people share and give us!
Maternity clothes? Sometimes! Definitely sticking to baggier "normal girl" clothes, haha, but I officially bought my first two pair of maternity pants. Skinny jeans and black pants...and very glad I did! Boy does it get uncomfortable when something is too tight. Thank you Jessica Simpson for making a super cute maternity clothes line!
Sleep: Still doing well in the sleep department! Oddly, I am getting about an hour less of sleep every night, and I'm really doing okay with it. I know that sounds funny - but I honestly have always (since a BABY) needed so much sleep. Early to bed, early to rise. But I talked to a friend of mine who just gave birth and she said it perfectly, she said it's almost like your brain and body are preparing you for life with an infant, and we begin to work a *wee bit* better on less sleep.
Miss anything? Not too much luckily! I would've love to do a huge workout after Thanksgiving (holy hell - I don't think I've EVER been that full!), but there's no boot-camp-allowed for this body for the time being. I'll stick to my lower-weight bodypump and stair master!
Food cravings: Really not much. Really a LACK OF cravings. I'm again to the point where it takes me hours upon hours to make a decision on what to eat. Everyone is so sweet and wants the pregnant lady to pick what we eat...but honestly you would be doing me a bigger favor to pick FOR me! Now - this is all being said minus Thanksgiving day. My dad's fried turkey and my mom's mashed potatoes had me all but foaming at the mouth all day long. I could eat that meal FOR every meal... :)
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope! Feeling pretty comfortable around all food and smells. Nothing that didn't make me queasy pre-pregnancy.
Symptoms: Just really showing more and more and really beginning to really get the "pregnant girl" body. Not really symptoms per say, but more just feeling like a legitimate pregnant girl. :)
Belly button in or out? Still in/flat!!! Please stay this way as long as possible...AND WHAT IF IT DOESN'T GO BACK IN?!
Movement: Yes, yes, yes! I just LOVE feeling baby girl move around in there. I almost videoed my stomach the other day because every so often you could see her kicking from looking at my belly! I can't wait for that and for hubby to feel her more.
Happy or Moody most of the time? So, so happy.
Looking forward to: Naming this little peanut! Can't wait to find something perfect to call our little girl.
