26 weeks!

I'm 26 weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 26 Weeks

Size of baby:  14 inches from crown to toes… about the size of an English hothouse cucumber and she weighs  over  1.67 pound.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 10 lbs according to the doctor this week. According to my scale, I’m at ~13 lbs. (Yes, I’m not gaining weight. No, it’s not on purpose…TRUST ME!)

Maternity Clothes: Pants.  All else is regular. I have to pick and choose on shirts because they are getting shorter.

Gender:  It’s a precious baby girl!

Movement: Every day.  She is getting stronger in her kicks and they are more often.

Sleep: I’m waking up atleast twice a night…and could probably get up at 4 and survive. Insomnia has taken over…

What I miss: Energy and not crying at the drop of a hat.

Cravings: Cake and Sweets and Mexican.

Symptoms:  Growth pains. Jabs and flips. Definitely the stomach is growing.

Best Moment this past week:  Getting to relax at home. Watching the Hubs get excited about her kicks.
