26 weeks


Ok - I'm seriously way behind - but I"m going to try to catch up on what's been going on the past month or so...

How far along? 26 weeks 1 day

Total weight gain/loss: I got about 8 pounds down from my pre-pregnancy weight; but I seem to have gained back about a pound or so in the past couple of weeks.

Maternity clothes? Everything is maternity - I'm really getting a belly now - even though I haven't gained weight.

Stretch marks? Yes - I have a few little ones on my belly - I know in time they'll just blend in with the ones that I already have

Sleep: I'm generally sleeping pretty good - I have a belly pillow that's really helping, I need to start using one between my legs, but I'm not really even waking up at night to pee.

Best moment this week: Earlier today Bryan felt the baby move again - it's been really fun for him.

Movement: Definitely - the baby is definitely moving a lot; and has really picked up on movement in the past couple of days. Initially I didn't understand what ladies said when the baby movements would cause me to feel sick to my stomach; but it definitely happened yesterday.

Food cravings/aversions: none

Belly Button in or out? In - but flattening out

What I miss: nothing

What I am looking forward to: I'm going to the Dr on Thursday - which will also include my glucose test.

Weekly Wisdom: get rest anytime you can - it is definitely needed

Milestones: almost made it to the 3rd trimester

Symptoms: I'm starting to get that linea negra (however that is spelled). I didn't notice it until last night.


We also started our registries at Target and Babies R Us this week - it was a lot of fun, but totally wore me out walking up and down all the aisles in the store.
