23 Weeks

 

Week 23

How far along? 23 weeks!

Total weight gain:Well from when I lost a lot of weight with the flu, I am up 15 pounds... which sounds like a lot. From normal weight only about 8ish pounds.

Maternity clothes? Of course! they are a must now!

 Stretch marks? No and stay away!

Sleep: sleep is OK could be better. I keep waking up with my pregnancy body pillow wrapped and contorted in different positions. Once it made its way up towards my head, lol.

Miss anything? I miss being able to do things without assistance. Last week when cleaning out the baby room I kept getting frustrated having to ask Jordan to lift things for me. Fortunately, he's not frustrated with this. I also miss being able to workout without side affects. First time I tried to workout (pregnancy workout) I spotted a little. This time my whole body is sore and I'm having weird tingling pain in my stomach (the nurse said it was nothing to worry about).

Movement:He's constantly moving around! He's still got a bit of room to kick around in, so the movements are fun still.

Food cravings: Chicken salad sandwiches from Zoe's Kitchen. I have eaten one at least once a week. We've started to earn reward points on their app :) This week we won a take home container of chicken salad. It was gone in one day!

Anything making you queasy or sick: No, but I will NOT take my chances with crab...

Gender: It's a boy! And no, he isn't named yet

Labor signs: nope! thankfully!

Symptoms: Last week I was incredibly moody and emotional, and nesting. 

Belly button in or out? In, but if I press down on it it will pop out!

Wedding rings on or off?  On

Happy or moody most of the time: generally happy, but last week I was incredibly moody

Looking forward to: The end of school in 3 weeks!

  Here's a pic of me at 23 Weeks, 1 day: I feel like I went from looking "little" to looking HUGE!
