25 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 25 Weeks

Size of baby: 13 1/2 inches head to toe and a pound and a half! (picture rutabaga)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 17 lbs

Maternity Clothes: Wearing maternity pants because they are so much more comfortable! Mostly maternity shirts but some regular. Able to wear a lot of my spring/summer dresses from last year!

Gender: A baby BOY, Jack Henry

Movement: Feeling a lot of movement! He seems a lot more active than Lydia did. He moves around all the time and I love it!

Sleep: I've slept better the past couple of nights. We got a new bed and I think that is part of it ... plus being able to get out and walk again!

What I miss: Sleeping on my belly

Cravings: Salads and fresh fruit

Symptoms: Just normal pregnancy stuff ... Trouble bending over, painting my toe nails, indigestion, etc. Started having headaches this week, but I think it's more allergies and not pregnancy related.

Best Moment this week: Feeling him move around and actually seeing my belly move! It blows my mind every time! I can also feel him doing flips ... or something! It's the craziest feeling.

I did not pass my glucose test last week, so I have to go back in the morning for the 3 hour test. =( Really not looking forward to it. I can not eat anything after dinner tonight until my test is over. I have to be at the doctor at 7:30 (WAY TOO EARLY!!) and they will draw blood FOUR times. FUN ... NOT! I am praying that I will pass the one tomorrow. I was only 6 points over the limit, so maybe that is a good thing.
