(Baby Boy E belly at 25 weeks... getting LARGE!)
(Actually got in an at-home workout last night, including cardio and weights! Felt great afterwards... however, it is getting so much harder to get motivated! Trying to stick with it though!)
How far along?: 25 Weeks!
This week, Baby E is the size of a: HEAD OF CAULIFLOWER!
Maternity clothes?: Other than the few things that don't really need to be maternity to fit, it's full blown maternity (not even another option!) now!
Total weight gain/loss: Gaining!! I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable at times now! And yes, I know it's going to get worse before it gets better... so, please refrain from telling me that! I get it, folks! It's completely worth it and all... just let me complain a little bit, k??! Thanks! haha!
Stretch marks?: Not yet, but just wondering when it will happen, because I feel like it should be happening at any time now!
Sleep: I'm still sleeping pretty well with just a few minor complaints!
Best moment this week: Getting the nursery painted and the furniture is ordered and will be delivered on Saturday (Yayyyyy!!! Can't wait!)! Also, LOVED that the first day of Spring was so beautiful! Ready for that weather to stick around! To celebrate the beautiful weather, this momma had to go and get a much needed mani and pedi! :)
(Looking terrifying in my mask, getting ready to tackle the nursery! haha!)
(Before and After of the nursery paint job! I'm a neutral kind of gal!)
(Enjoying the first day of Spring out on the deck! LOVE the sun and warmer weather!)
(HAPPY DAY for this momma... much needed mani/ pedi!)
Food cravings: Nothing specific! Pretty much any and all food at this point! I have been trying to eat somewhat healthier lately.
Anything making you queasy or sick?: Nope!
Have you started to show yet?: Um, duh! Starting to show all over! Looking pregnant from all angles!!! Eeeeek!
Labor signs?: Nope... thank goodness!
Belly button in or out?: In still.
Wedding rings on or off?: Currently still on.
Happy or moody most of the time?: Happy!!!
Symptoms: The main ones making me complain these days are heartburn, back pain, and hip pain.
What I miss: Nothing specific comes to mind this week, other than the things I have already mentioned... Mr. Goodcents sandwich (or a sub of some kind!), Running (all the time and for long distances!), and my old body (hahaha!)!!
What I'm looking forward to: Getting the nursery put together, our baby showers, and our baby classes that we are taking at the hospital! :)
Milestones: (Based on a pregnancy app) Oh baby, how you have grown! The spine structures, including 33 vertebrae, 150 joints, and 1,00 ligaments are all coming into place. Your baby is now able to support its body weight, but is weak which makes it a good thing that your baby is surrounded by amniotic fluid. Another big deal this week is that brainwave patterns are beginning to develop. This means your baby will be able to remember things, like the sound of your voice. If you desperately want your baby to adore country music, now is the time to begin playing it for him/ her. Amazingly, the intricate details of the hands and fingers are now 100% complete. Pretty soon, you will be kissing them.
Weekly wisdom: Trying to work on healthy snacking, so I had to check out what all the hype was over these Questbars! Pretty darn good, if you ask me! Sometimes the whole healthy thing is just not what I want though! So, I'm doing the best I can!
We're getting more prepared for you, sweet boy! Getting the nursery set up, baby showers on the way, and our classes at the hospital are in May! You will be here before we know it and we can't wait to just love and snuggle you! We love you to the moon and back! *Hugs and Kisses, from Momma and Daddy!*
