25 week





How far along? 25 weeks measuring 32 weeks
Total weight gain: 17 lbs.  (Pre-pregnancy weight 136lbs, lost 3 lbs so 133 at my first appt)
Maternity clothes? I finally bought new jeans that work so much better. I don’t know why I waited so long. I also had to buy new tops as I have a feeling I’ll be growing out of some of them very shortly.
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Sleep is much better these past 2 weeks. I usually wake up every 2-3 hours to go to the bathroom, but I can almost always go back to sleep.
Best moment this week: Having family here for Christmas has been so much fun. My car seats, crib and dresser are all set up. Now I just need to work on getting the crib bedding made and ready for babies.
Worst moment this week:  I haven’t really had any bad moment this week. I did have to do my 1 hour glucose drink, but that wasn’t too bad, and I passed! No gestational diabetes for this gal.
Miss Anything?  I am definitely starting to feel more pregnant every day. Putting on shoes is starting to become a challenge. Let me just say I was not prepared for everything that comes along with pregnancy.
Movement: They are moving like crazy. I am starting to get some really hard kicks and can sometimes see them from the outside.
Food cravings: I am doing much better eating this week, Food is actually starting to taste good again. No cravings yet.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I still have a hard time eating anything I’ve cooked. Other than that, I don’t have much else that bothers me.
Gender: Boy and Girl! I’m pretty sure they are going to be named Luke and Lydia. I am so indecisive that I can’t commit quit yet.
Labor Signs: Nope. I think I am starting to notice some Braxton Hicks contractions. It’s hard to tell when you've never experienced them before.
Symptoms: No real symptoms, sometime I get a little heart burn.
Belly Button in or out? It starts out as an inny and is usually an outy by the end of the day.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I have been a lot grouchier this past week. It’s probably because Adam had been sick and I've had to take care of myself. All I can say is “how rude”
 Looking forward to: My next apt at MFM. I can’t wait to see how much bigger they are. They are also viable now, which means that could survive outside my body with a lot of help from the NICU. I've told them that they are not allowed to come out until at least 36 wks. Hopefully they will listen.
