25 Weeks

I don't really do bare belly pics much anymore since you can clearly see what's going on now w/ clothes, but I thought I would do one since today I am 25 weeks and wanted to compare. WOW! Our little guy is definitely in there. I love my belly and I love being pregnant. I can't believe it's going by so fast and can't believe he will be here now sooner rather than later.



I thought I'd start doing this some weeks since we're getting closer to the end and it's a great way to keep track (for myself mostly) from here on out!

How far along? 25 weeks

Total Weight Gain? Around 15 lbs

Maternity Clothes? Yes! Still wearing my regular PJ pants and tops and I can wear some non maternity shirts depending on the style.

Stretch Marks? None at all yet!

Sleep? Sleep is my only complaint so far and even then I don't mind. I get up anywhere from 2-4 times a night to pee, often it's triggered by waking up to roll over to my other side. Moving from my left side to right side and back is needed to give my hips a break, but it's a struggle b/c I need to move a bunch of pillows with me. By then I normally have to get up to pee!

Best Moment this week? I've been feeling Lucas move a lot more this week (or I should say, some very active times each day) and some are really big movements that we can even see really well from the outside.

Food Cravings? Chocolate chip pancakes, Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream

Sex? Boy :)

Labor Signs? None!

Belly Button? Still in, but it's getting smaller.

What I miss the most? Sleeping through the night. Especially when people tell me to get all the sleep I can now. :(

What am I looking forward to the most? Short term: Getting our crib mattress, ordering bedding from Etsy, and taking maternity pictures in June. Long term: Birth and hold our baby for the first time and looking into his eyes
Milestones? Last week was our viability day!
