22 weeks

Did I actually make it on time this time? Well, barely, but I'll take it ;-)

So here's the latest pic... please excuse the hat and lack of makeup look:
I forgot to do a bare belly one, but I'll try for the next update ;)
Belly #2
Belly #1

Pregnancy HighlightsHow Far Along: 22 weeks

Size of baby: Baby #2 is about 11 inlong (about the size of a spaghetti squash) and weighs about 1 lb.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: By my scale +12 so far... I hope to keep up this only 4 lbs a month weight gain... and my butt needs to not get ANY bigger!

Clothes: Still maternity.

Gender: Still Team BLUE!

Movement: More and more. I still have my small moments of panic when I think he should be moving around and he's not, but I'm trying to let. it. go.

Sleep: still unisom... still every night...

What I miss: Being able to shave *ahem* down below without having to do some pretty amazing shower acrobatics. I have a feeling it's going to be all by "feel" from her on out... yikes!

Cravings: Chinese food, Mexican food, Thai food, Teryaki, pretty much anything other than what I am eating which is lots of veggies and rice and beans ;-)

Symptoms: Big belly, movement, etc. 

Moment this week: I am starting to feel him move more at the top of my uterus which is between my belly button and my ribs. Kind of exciting! I have been able to feel him on the outside for a couple weeks now, but just like B, he's been kind of shy once Batman tries to feel him. The little stinker! Hopefully, he will start performing for Daddy soon too!

What I'm looking forward to: Next Dr appt so I can hear this little man again :)

Milestones: None I can think of? Making it through another week?

Looking good! You look the same size to me? Do you think you are? I think I am the exact same but carrying a hair lower :-)

I hear you on the "down there" shaving. I remember how hard it was with Noah. But I had him in March, so I could stretch it out to every 8 days instead of every 5-7, and it didn't have to be perfect. This time it's summer, and we have a pool. I may have to employ the use of a mirror!!!

You look great! Love the new layout and the colors you have now! Gray and yellow are so in right now, I love it. :)
