26 Week Update!

How far along? 26 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I was only 197 at my appointment on March 10th!
Maternity clothes? Yes! I don't know how pregnant ladies wear anything other than leggings or dresses!
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I am sleeping ok. My nurse said not to fret if I wake up on my back sometimes. That has helped relax me a little more at night!
Best moment this week: Any kicks from baby girl...I've been sick for a week now so anytime she kicks me it makes me happy! We also decided that baby girl officially has a name...Priscilla Marie Janacek! People told me to wait until she arrives, but I just feel like this is her name. I can't picture her as anything else and I love it!
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? Not at all.
Movement: She's been having lots of "parties"!
Food cravings: I figured out I'm not craving flautas as much as I'm craving the sour cream I dip them in! ;)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still kinda turned off by meat!
Have you started to show yet: I am starting to get bigger all over my stomach!

Gender prediction: Girl
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In, but it's starting to look a little flat. :)
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I've been pretty happy with the occasional moodiness. Haha says that I'm a little more bitchy these days! :)

Looking forward to: I am super excited about our baby showers! I can't wait to celebrate baby girl and can't believe this pregnancy is flying by! I'm also ready to start feeling good again. I'm sure as soon as this sickness goes away the fatigue will return. I plan on taking lots of naps whenever I can. They started painting our house today so hopefully things will move pretty quick and we can move into the house before P arrives!

24 Week Update!

How far along? 24 weeks 1 day
Total weight gain/loss: I will find out in 2 days. I'm guessing I'm right over 200!!!
Maternity clothes? Yes! I'm loving these maternity pants...can I wear them forever?!
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I am sleeping ok. I toss and turn a lot and catch myself waking up on my back. I tried out the new Aden + Anais pillow last night and it's good at keeping me on my side. No matter what my hips hurt every morning.
Best moment this week: On Sunday morning Ryan finally felt baby girl kick! It was 5:20 and they were so strong they woke me up. I grabbed Ryan's hand and he felt three sharp kicks...later on that morning he felt her again. I tried to get Haha and Granny to feel her, but she only wanted to kick for daddy that day! She's been a lot more active since then!
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? Not at all.
Movement: She's been kicking up a storm! I love feeling her move around! :)
Food cravings: I'm still craving chips and quest...and flautas...and anything sweet!
Anything making you queasy or sick: I have been turned off by meat lately.
Have you started to show yet: I am def looking more prego instead of just fat! :)

Gender prediction: Girl
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In, but it's starting to look a little flat. :)
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I've been doing acupuncture for my anxiety and it's helping for the most part. I'm a little worried about the bad weather we are supposed to have tonight. Luckily Haha is letting me and daddy sleep in her room! I saw black on the radar for the first time! (I guess that's the next shade after pink!) I am glad we aren't in west Texas right now!

Looking forward to: I always look forward to my doctor appointments so I can hear that little heartbeat! I am going to finish our baby registry after my appointment. Our first baby shower is next month!



Mommy at 23 weeks 2 days!
