25 Weeks





Baby's size: Cauliflower [13.5 in., 1.5 lb.]

How far along: 
25 Weeks

Sleep: Can't sleep (comfortably) on my stomach or back anymore (boo!). Little baby is also active all the time now, even at night.

Maternity Clothes: Same stuff as the last few weeks! 

Food cravings: Bruegger's Bagels. I've eaten so many this week, with honey walnut cream cheese for breakfast and with turkey as a sandwich for lunch. 

Food aversions: I haven't come across anything lately.

Symptoms I HAVE: This week I've started having some Braxton Hicks contractions, such a bizarre feeling. 

Doctor’s Appointment: Baby is growing just the way he or she should with a strong heartbeat as well. I also had to take the glucose test which hopefully is 
negative for gestational diabetes. 

Movement: Every time I change positions I feel a flurry of kicks. I can also feel flips and when I poke my belly the baby pokes back!

Belly Button: Still an innie.

Gender: In the next few weeks, please oh please.

Best moment of the week: Putting together all of the nursery furniture, it turned out pretty fantastic if I don't say so myself.  

What I’m looking forward to: 
My husband. I am so tired of waiting.

What I miss: Sushi and Sashimi.

  1. I'm so sorry your husband is away for this joyous moment in both of your lives! When does he return home? My husband is army and we've been fortunate with no deployments yet. Also, love the chalkboard idea that's going around all of these pictures will make such a cute baby album!

    1. He's due back soon! This is our third deployment but it sure hasn't gotten any easier.

      I'm loving doing the weekly pictures, I'm definitely going to make them into a album for the baby. :)
