| 23 Week Bumpdate |
How far along? 23 weeks- 6 months - 2nd trimester
Total weight gain: 140 lbs, 15 lbs total so far...eek!
Maternity clothes: Yes- I can still wear pencil skirts that have some stretch, and my jeans/pants by doing the hair tie trick around the button, but they're just not as comfortable as maternity pants with the over the belly band. I also ordered some maternity clothes, mainly all dresses, off of ASOS Maternity this week, so I can have more to wear at work and maybe find a good dress for my shower. While overall maternity clothes are pretty stylish, I have to say WORK maternity clothes that are stylish are hard to come by....so as many cute dresses that I can jazz up with blazers or jewelry are my go-to these days.
Stretch marks? Still nothing- so thankful!
Sleep: Really difficult. Landon moves around all night (seems to be really awake from 9 pm-4 am) so it's so hard to get comfortable, and by the time I finally fall into a deeper sleep, I have to wake up for work between 5-6 am. But in the end, it's all worth it for him, and prepping me for the months ahead, I'm sure!
Best moment this week: Christmas- and that GG got to feel him in my tummy. :)
Miss anything? Wine!
Movement: Yes- lots at night, but here and there throughout the day, especially after I eat he must get a burst of energy from gobbling down some food and he'll move around a bit!
Food cravings: Chocolate milk, black olives, pizza
Anything making you queasy or sick? Seafood as always
Gender: Boy
Labour signs: None, thank goodness!
Symptoms: Backache, abdominal pains (stretching), fatigue
Belly button in or out? Still in, but I feel like it's changing- ahhhhhh!
Wedding rings on or off? On!
Happy or moody most of the time: Mostly happy, but with the holiday I've had a few mini-meltdowns just around stress and being so tired and trying to please everyone it can just get hard!
Looking forward to: Having a few days off of work, sleeping in, and getting to see family and friends over the coming days!
