How Far Along: 25 weeks, 4 days
Size of Baby: Eggplant
Size of Baby: Eggplant
Weight Gain: 14 lbs
Gender: Baby Cole is a BOY!
Maternity Clothes: Still wearing regular clothes. Dresses and bigger sizes of clothes are still working. Tanks and linen shorts are my best friend. My one maternity shirt is fitting better this week.
Belly Button: In
Symptoms: Some swelling in feet after walking around a lot.
Cravings: Still eating half a pickle everyday with a glass of sweet koolaid!
Sleep: Still waking up 1-2 times a night to use the restroom. Hips still cramping up while sleeping and still uncomfortable to move around at night.
What I miss: Still missing cold sandwiches.
Movement: Lots of movements noticed during the day, especially after eating. Some movements at night, but nothing that wakes me up. It’s weird, but so unreal, to fell this little being move and flip around inside of me.
Best Moment of the Week: I had a doctor’s appointment this week, so hearing your little heartbeat is always amazing. Heart is still beating at around 150 bpm. Dr. G did measure my belly and she mentioned that Baby Cole was measuring at 26 weeks, and not 25. I asked her about how far along we would go to realize that Baby Cole just might be too large for me to deliver naturally, and she said she could keep an eye on his size. If for some reason he seems too large an ultrasound would have to be done and then we would be able to determine if a c-section was needed.
I also started planning my baby shower. The shower will take place in Corpus with my family and friends down there. Some planning happened while I was visiting last week, but this week I ordered my invitations. The theme will be a bow-tie, so there will be lots of DIY’s for this shower!
