Do we have names picked out? Yes. Are we sharing? Still nope!
How Far Along: 23 weeks, 2 days
Due Date: January 24
Size of baby: 12+ inches (as long as an ear of corn!), over 1 lb.
Total Weight Gain: ~18 lbs...eek!
Maternity Clothes: OH yes, and they're the ONLY thing I can wear anymore (for the most part)
Gender: My intuition was right! A pretty little mini-me. :)
Movements: TONS! I didn't feel her for a while due to her positioning, and then out of nowhere--wham! She's a strong little girl; I've gotten quite the beating over the last 6 weeks. so cool!
Sleep: Still pretty normal, but I do wake up a little more often than usual.
What I miss: Rigorous exercise. I'm sure I could push harder than I do, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. And there's been a few times during this hot this summer when I wouldn't have minded a cold beer or a nice glass of wine with dinner!
Cravings: I still can't get enough spicy food or water. Grapes are still a favorite, too.
Symptoms: I've had it so easy...hoping it stays that way! I've just started to have a little lower back pain on the days that I spend a lot of time on my feet.
Best Moment this week: Feeling her kick/punch/roll around so much! It's such a crazy feeling.
Funny pregnancy story of the week: Hmm, I don't know if I have one. It's pretty fun to feel her kick really hard when Eric says her name. Probably just coincidence, but we still find it cool.
