Bumpdate - 22 Weeks



What's baby up to this week? She is the size of a spaghetti squash, measuring 11" long and weighs almost one pound. She is starting to look like a miniature newborn! Her lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct and tiny tooth buds are developing. Her eyes have formed, but the irises still lack pigment.

What's been going on with mom? We have been super busy packing to move. Our lease is up and we are not renewing so we are packing up our apartment and it causes me such anxiety! I hate dealing with packing boxes and seeing the amount of crap we actually have. I sat on the ground packing boxes and my closet. Its really sad to see the actual amount of clothes that I cannot wear! About one third of my wardrobe fits right now and that is slowly dropping by the week!

Symptoms: Heartburn, I cannot predict what will cause it! I had peanut butter crackers and I got heartburn. At least I keep Tums in my purse and have them at all times. Sleep is ok. I started sleeping with the body pillow again and although my hips are falling asleep or cramping I'm not comfy with that stupid pillow. Ugh. The stress of moving is making me breakout and and highly emotional!

Yummy/Icky: I think my sweet tooth has officially returned and I am desperately trying to NOT indulge. Its so hard when I have reps bring in pastries and cannoli's!

Clothing: All maternity on the bottom, but still rocking the longer pre-pregnancy shirts, but those pre-preggo shirts are starting to get tight!

Movement: She still reminds me of mealtimes and kicks when they get close. They are pretty consistent after eating or when I lie down. I have been just trying to figure out her schedule. D gets so excited with he feels her kick and asks me how she is all the time.

Belly Button In/Out: In, but semi-shallow

Wedding Rings On/Off: On! Still spinning around like they always do.

Best Moment this Week: Feeling movement. I also went to do some research for registering and I narrowed down the choices for car seat and stroller. Also, I think we settled on a name, but are going to hold it in for a while until we know for sure!

Looking forward to: Scheduling our 4d ultrasound

As always, here's a closeup of our chalkboard.
