Baby Update

Ummmm yeah, so I have no excuse, other than the fact that we closed on our house, moved in and cleaned out our old apartment one week, went on vacation the next week, and are now trying to figure out a routine that work for us in this new space.
I'm so far behind on my updates IDK why I'm even doing them anymore, but I will try to press forward. lol

How Far Along? 25 weeks 3 days (week 26)

Symptoms: I get really tired out of nowhere sometimes, but other than that and breast tenderness, no real symptoms

Total Weight Gain: I’m now 178, but my doctor says this is ok, considering my actual weight before I started working out and doing the colon cleanse prior to pregnancy, I was at 163, I have gained 15 pounds. I'm looking to get down to about 145 after I have the baby though.

Measurement: I am measuring at 37.5 inches. No denying that I am pregnant now! 

Maternity Clothes: I am in full maternity wear. except maternity underwear.  I refuse to wear those.

Stretch Marks: none yet. I have some itching every now and then, but I try not to scratch, and then I make sure to apply my belly cream.

Sleep: Some nights I go to sleep right away with minimal bathroom breaks, other nights it takes forever to get comfortable and then I get restless leg syndrome, and those are the nights I have to get up a million times to go to the bathroom, so its kinda a toss up on sleep at this point.  

Food Cravings: All my adversions are gone.  I can eat anything! lol. I usually start my meal really hungry, but then end up not being able to finish it all. It's weird. I am currently craving orange juice. Specifically Simply Orange juice with mango. Its delicious! 

Best Moment This Week: Seeing my belly move a little bit when she kicked. I was only able to see it once, but I'm sure over the coming weeks, I will be able to see her more.

Movement:know that will change soon.

Labor Signs: none! Prayerfully not for at least another 11-12 weeks

Belly Button In or Out? Pretty much an outtie at this point. There is like a little part at the top that doesn't fully stick out yet. it feels so weird when it bumps into things. lol

What I Miss: I really miss sleeping on my back. That was my usual way of sleeping before pregnancy, and I cant wait to be able to go back to that again.

What I Am Looking Forward To: I look forward to us taking classes in November, my shower in December, and my maternity pics. Hopefully in November. And I am really looking forward to the holiday season.

Milestones: Movement!

Weekly Wisdom: Slow down! Funny that this is still my weekly wisdom. I have learned that I have a bad habit of not being able to rest. I have been pushing myself past my tiredness and then end up crashing for like a day or two. I need to stop trying to go every where and do everything and stop believing I can be as active as I was before.

And goals for this week are: to cook at least twice this week, go to the gym at least once, and finish unpacking our suitcases from our vacation. Oh and also work on our budget.
