25 WEEKS



How far Along? 25 Weeks 
Total weight gain: 13 pounds
Maternity clothes? Loving the long tops with the extra belly room.  Just got some GAP maternity leggings pretty comfy.
Sleep: Still sleeping good thru the night and waking up early.  Nesting is in full effect I wake up thinking about all the fun baby stuff I want to do.
Best moment this week: Getting all the baby bedding in the mail ( I will have to post some pics) We are both just getting so excited for this baby girl! Also going to the beach.. yep laying out at 25 weeks preggers is so different I felt very european in my bikini ( pictures will not be posted) 
Miss Anything? Not being able to lay on my back or stay on my feet shopping as long as a used to
Movement: Getting some good kicks now and it is fun to try to figure out which bump is her head or bum
Food Cravings: Still loving cereal and fruit and I may or may have not eaten a whole bag of sweetheart conversation hearts...I am hoping Jon helped me. 
Gender: A baby Girl!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Starting to feel the expanding little girl. Noticing some of the random mood swings that seem to come out in the form of road rage...  Yep I am now that person that will honk at you if your driving irritates me
Looking forward to:  Our Dr. appointment this week even though I have to take the glucose test hearing the heart beat is so worth it!

24 Weeks

Shirt is way too small... but when the Niners make the playoffs.. a tight fit is ok

How far along? 24 weeks
Total weight gain: 13 pounds
Maternity clothes? Found some great long tank tops at H&M wearing one in the pic above not maternity but super comfy.  Still trying to fit in my old larger clothes but loving the stretchy waits in maternity pants not sure I will want to ever go back to normal pants.
Sleep: Still sleeping good with my fort of pillows. Getting the occasional leg/foot cramp in the middle of the night
Best moment this week: watching Jon getting to feel the baby kick :) and being asked by a stranger when my due date is.
Miss Anything? A glass of Vino
Movement: Mostly in the early morning (6AM) or in the late afternoon
Food Cravings: Just tried a new greek yogurt called Voskos.  Strawberry thick and creamy is my favorite... tried the non-fat and it was even close to being as good.  Also loving cereal.
Gender: A baby Girl! already loving all the little girl clothes.. could be trouble.
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: I had no idea how much I would enjoy being pregnante the 2nd trimester has proven to be the honeymoon stage. Who knew you could feel this good without coffee.
Looking forward to:  Our baby bedding arriving this week so we can pick paint for the room.

23 Weeks


So we decided it was time to start tracking the baby bump and thanks to pintrest we are having fun doing it.

How far along? 23 weeks ( almost 6 months!)
Total weight gain: 13 pounds at my last appt... could be more now I am loving sweets
Maternity clothes? Just got maternity jeans from H&M and a cute pair of citizen of humanity jeans off ebay ( just couldn't spend $200 on them) belly bands from target love them! Still wearing some of my own tops and bought a few maternity tops from GAP maternity.
Sleep: sleeping so much better than the first 3 months and loving a ton of pillows.
Best moment this week: feeling the baby kick so crazy
Miss Anything? Starbucks Lattes
Movement: Yes finally but nothing you can feel on the outside yet
Food Cravings: Love grapes, bananas, apples and sour candy... yummy sour skittles
Anything make you queasy of sick: pulled pork for the longest time but now there is not much I wouldn't  eat.
Gender:  A baby Girl!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Itchy stomach, I have crazy spurts of energy which seem to start at 5AM and as of lately sometime I pee when I sneeze... thought that was supposed to happen after you have the baby or according to Jon when I am 90..
Looking forward to: Setting up the babies nursery it is making it all so real.

Here is a picture from the same day in Disneyland.
