Baby #2 - 25 weeks

How far along: 25 weeks

Baby's size: Ear of corn

Weight gain: 10lbs.

Maternity clothes: A few items...still squeezing into my regular workout clothes

Stretch marks: None

Sleep: Can't ever get enough!

Gender: BOY!

Movement: Lots!

Best moment this week: We got the nursery painted and I LOVE IT! I also just put the last coat on the curtain rod / shelf unit for the window, so I'm super excited to get that all together!

Worst moment this week: I had (yet another) meltdown on Thursday, and Josh actually had to come home from work. With Jacob being sick and needy, and my inability to recover from small bumps in the road, I just couldn't handle it. I get so embarrassed when he has to come home, I mean- is it really that hard?! Gah.

Looking forward to: I'm traveling to New York with my mom and sister this weekend, and I'm soo looking forward to a little girls getaway.

Food cravings: Nothing, really...

Weirdest food I ate this week: Nothing, really...

Anything making you queasy or sick: I had to clean, boil and cut up chicken this week. OMG woof!

Labor signs: None

Symptoms: Tired, queasiness, heartburn, tight tummy (don't think it's braxton hicks), shortness of breath

Workouts: Nothing this week, it's been too hot!

What I miss: WINE

Similarities/differences between last pregnancy: Basically the same, minus the pregnancy glow. Last pregnancy at 25 weeks here for reference.

Things that suck: This Texas heat!!!!!!! ACK!

Things that don't suck: It's the last week of August- YAY!

25-week Update

How far along? 25 weeks
Total weight gain: 19 lbs
Maternity clothes? Still just using the Bella Band to wear my regular jeans.
Stretch marks? None
Sleep: I wake up around 2:30am to pee, and have a tough time falling back to sleep.  But other than that, I feel great!
Best moment this week: The nursery furniture arrived this week, so Josh spent Wednesday and Thursday night putting together the bookcase and crib.  Both look amazing!  I'll do a separate post about that later.
Miss anything? Wine, and running!  I can't wait to hit the trails after delivery!  I wonder how long I'll have to recover??
Movement: Lots in the mornings, around lunch time, and around dinner time.

Food cravings: This week I've been obsessed with strawberries and brownies.  I literally ate an entire carton of fresh strawberries in one sitting.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Gender: Boy :)
Labor Signs: Nope
Symptoms: Gas....still...ugh!  And leg cramps.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On...actually, my rings are super loose.  Maybe b/c it's cold out??
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Now that most of the big items are purchased, I'm hoping we can sit back and relax and slowly gather basic essentials.  Third trimester will be here before we know it! :)
