25 weeks

I am 25 weeks into this pregnancy and feeling great! When I woke up I was about to take my weekly belly picture and I laid down on my back and looked at my belly and Barrett was completely on my left side! My stomach was lopsided! It was so crazy looking that I had to take a picture.

How far along? 25 weeks

How big is baby?  A head of cauliflower 

Total weight gain?  I still haven't unpacked my scale, but I feel huge. 

Maternity clothes?  There are absolutely no cute maternity shorts, so I just wear one size up and use a hair tie through the loop. I have some linen maternity pants, but it's too hot to wear jeans. 

Sleep?  Great.

Best moment of the week? Celebrating my first mother's day and waking up to a card from Steven and a card that he wrote from Barrett. He is the sweetest!  

Food cravings? Nothing particular. I eat cereal and a banana every morning and I love to eat fruit and sweets. Steven got me some delicious chocolate covered strawberries for mother's day!

Food aversions? None.

Symptoms:  I get out of breath easier when I am working around the house and my lower back is still hurting. My stomach is also feeling more tight. 

Mood this week: Getting anxious about not having anything really picked out besides the crib, so we are planning to get some things on our baby check-list done next week so I can stop stressing. 

Movement:  Still moving quite a bit. He is most comfortable on my left side and loves to kick me when I sit down.     

What I’m looking forward to: Having a baby shopping day next week. 

What I miss: Nothing at the moment...my pity party from last week is over. Being pregnant is worth missing out on all the things I cannot do.  

Next appointment: May 24th
