Baby Update No. 10

How far along: 26 weeks and 4 days(6 1/2 months)/13 weeks and 3 days(95 Days) TO GO!

Total weight gain/loss: At my Doctor's Apt on Friday I weighed a whopping 157! That is 7 pounds in one month! Good thing I'm pregnant otherwise I think I would be extremely depressed...


Maternity clothes: I have stolen one of Michael's shirts (above) as my own. I LOVE it. I have been washing it and wearing it lot... Its comfy and it still shows my belly, but its not TIGHT-tight...

Stretch marks: Just the one on my hip. It hasn't grown or gotten ugly...yet....

Sleep: I love sleep! Maybe it has just been the Holidays that have been wearing me out, but I have been way tired when I fall into bed... (Don't get me wrong I am very thankful for the Holidays keeping me busy) (I forgot how much fun my family is)

Dreams: I haven't really had any dreams that I can remember lately... But if I have any, I will definitely post them...

Best Moment this week: Saturday! It was my 26th Birthday! My WHOLE family got together and went and watched True Grit (its a re-make of a John Wayne movie, so you all know I have seen it... My dad is a HUGE John Wayne fan) Then it was off to a Buffet. Which was completely yummy... Then SUNDAY Robin had her baby! So it was like the best 24 hours a little sister could have! Jett is seriously so cute. He has a sweet little cry that just makes you go aw... and then he settles right down! Its like a "I don't want to cry, but I have to at the moment..." Robin is doing amazing! She is my hero... I will let her blog about her amazing story...

Movement:
Yes. This morning there was a first. Izzy kicked both my sides at the same time. Like she was doing a Superman inside me with feet to my right and hands to my left. It happened just as Michael was getting home so maybe she heard him say hi and she wanted to say hi too...
 
Food cravings:
Subway is my new weakness. I really crave it. Maybe its all the vinegar I put on it...

Aversions:
Beans. Still. Old News. Still too scared of Hamburger to eat In N Out...

Gender:
GIRL! Having all nephews and now with the new arrival of Jett, I'm not too sure what to do with a girl! I will just have to love her and give her lots of hugs... I really can't wait. Being in the hospital yesterday I think I got a small taste of what its gonna be like when she gets here...

What I miss:
I really don't have any complaints this week. My belly is getting big, and that is fine with me! I do wonder where Izzy shoved my lungs... Looking at me you would never tell I ever had them...

Milestones: 6 1/2 months...I have one more week left in my 2nd trimester. Michael thinks its silly to use weeks in pregnancy, like "I'm 26 weeks." He says, why can't you just say it in months...? I think its starting to hit me that Izzy will be here SOON! Which is awesome! I can't wait. She is seriously gonna be awesome. (I need to get my nursery done...)

Extra: Haha, I went and bought some cute flats the other night, and they fit fine in the store... Well the next day I put them on and they are just a tad to big. I guess my feet have been swelling at night... I also bought a fake ring to wear, but I haven't had to wear it yet... (yet is the key word there) Another funny little bit: Michael told me that my Belly Button is now a glorified dimple. Haha, it is barely an inny - it will be a belly switch soon... ;)

  1. You look great! Good call on the fake ring. I failed to take mine off during pregnancy and now it is stuck on my permanently fatter finger. Oh well. I guess that's better than not being able to put it back on...I think.
