How far along? 26 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Up 4 lbs. That's still pretty good for 26 weeks, right?
Maternity clothes? Oh yeah, and thanks to my mom, I have some new tops and a new pair of jeans. AND I have some new dressy flip-flops since normal shoes no longer fit.
Stretch marks? Yup, those were definitely stretch marks. I have a few on either side of my lower abdomen, possibly a few on my left side above my belly button. Oh, and what appears to be a faint linea nigra. Awesome.
Sleep: Generally sleeping through the night, but my dreams are getting weirder. I'm having a lot of dreams about newborn care and labor.
Best moment this week: So many! C feeling Stretch kick for the first time, my mom feeling Stretch kick, visiting with family and ILs in Atlanta, and my Atlanta shower (most of these events occurred on Saturday, so I could have just said "Saturday")
Movement: He's moving almost constantly. I think I'm even feeling some hiccups, though it's sort of hard to distinguish them.
Food cravings: Nothing noticeable, though my sweet tooth has returned.
Gender: Boy! And if that u/s was wrong, I hope our little girl likes wearing blue!
Labor Signs: No, but some of these weird pains are starting to make me nervous.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Feeling like I had all the time in the world to enjoy this pregnancy. Now it seems like it's just flying by!
What I am looking forward to: Being in 3rd tri (and there I go wishing time away, again).
Weekly Wisdom: Don't get behind on thank you notes. I am almost 3 weeks late on a few, and I feel horrible about it!
Milestones: C feeling Stretch kick, my mom feeling him kick, and the appearance of pregnancy badges of honor (i.e. stretch marks and the linea nigra)
