25 Weeks

How Far Along: As of today I am 25 weeks and 2 Days
Size of Baby: Measures about 13 1/2 inches or 1 1/2 pounds or the size of an average rutabaga
Maternity Clothes: I can still fit into my non maternity skinny jeans but they are really really tight, I probably shouldn't wear them anymore. I have 1 pair of maternity jeans but I don't really like them so I don't wear them often. I did go shopping last week and bought a pair of jean capris and some tops. I was going to try and dress so cute this pregnancy, but it's just not happening.
Gender: BOY!
Movement:He is a mover! I feel him a lot at about 8-9am and then 10-11pm. Other than that it's random moving and kicking through out the day. But I love it and know that I will miss it.
Sleep: Sleeping pretty good!
What I Miss: I don't really miss anything right now.
Cravings: Still not having any real cravings. I do like burgers a lot this pregnancy though.
Symptoms: My back is starting to hurt if I sit or stand for awhile. I am carrying him really low. My doctor talked to me about a band you can get to kind of lift things up, but I don't think I'm at that point yet.
Best Moment of the Week: Had an appointment last week and got to hear the heartbeat. She put the machine on my stomach and he kept kicking at it!
Appointments this Week: I don't have a real appointment but need to take my 1 hour glucose test this week. I'm really nervous about having the diabetes again, so I'm kind of freaking out about this.
What I'm Looking Forward to: Throwing up in the docs office! Just kidding. I'm really anxious to start going through Conner's old clothes and seeing what is still good, but I think it's kind of early. But I have the energy now so I might just get it done. I also want to start working on some art for the nursery.
This Week's Thoughts:I have lots of thoughts all of the time! Too many to write down. My biggest thought is probably "what the heck did we do?" Everything is going to change again and I don't really like change. Also, I know about 4 people who recently had babies and it's making me anxious for mine to get here!
Pictures from this Week: Here you go.....

Yum, I love the glucose test! Just kidding. Did you have gestational diabetes with Conner? I was totally the same way when I was pregnant with Eli on the "What the heck did we do?!!" part! I was so scared of the huge change, but I was pleasantly surprised because I had no idea how much I would love and adore my sweet baby! I'm sure it will be the same for you! I mean, yes, still a huge change and transition, but it will be worth it! Can't believe you're already 25 weeks - time is flying!
