How far along? 27 weeks...last week of 2nd trimester
Baby Size: A Head of a Cauliflower
Total weight gain: 26 lbs
Maternity clothes? Mostly leggings and occasionally maternity jeans but the bands make my stomach/back itchy and dry. In addition, my pre-pregnancy leggings are starting to feel a little too tight. However, I scored a killer deal on Cyber Monday from PinkBlush . This is my first time ordering from them so I am anxiously awaiting delivery to check out the quality and fit.
Stretch marks? No signs of them yet.
Sleep: No, but nothing new there. At least I am past the tiredness from not sleeping. It seems to have become the new norm.
Best moment this week: Partaking in my sister's annual gingerbread competition. This year was bigger and better with more friends and family. I sat for 3 hours decorating my house below and loved every minute. What else was there for me to do since I can't drink. However, I think I consumed too many sweets while decorating b/c the next day baby girl was wild.
Miss Anything? Clothes not feeling snug around my waist.
Movement: Kicking like a crazy woman. She was kicking me so hard in church on Sunday that a few times it made me flinch in my seat.
Food cravings: Apparently I love carbs too much b/c the doctor is concerned about my weight gain and wants me to cut back on carbs and load up on protein. FYI, in my opinion this is not the way to add protein to your diet. I thought it could be a good afternoon snack. Woof!
Looking forward to: My girlfriends holiday dinner on Friday. We started this tradition a few years ago at Melting Pot since our lives took us all in different directions. This year our group has grown even bigger as friends of friends have started to join.
