Well technically (since I am a week late posting this update) I am actually 27 weeks with 13 weeks to go but who's counting..;)
 |
At 26 weeks M weighs about a pound and two-thirds and measures 14 inches.
(About the length of an English Hothouse cucumber) |
How
Far Along:
26 weeks
Weight
Gain:
20lbs. This is actually up for debate. Apparently I have miscalculated somewhere because I was thinking I had gained more in total than the doctor had in my chart so we will go with her figures :)....
Maternity
Clothes:
Yes. But I can still wear some of my regular clothes with the bella band
.
Stretch
Marks:
Not yet but I am still lathering up with Mother's Friend and coco butter
Morning
Sickness: It
seems to have passed
Sleep:
Pretty good. I have eased up on the amount of times I have to get up at night
and have acquired a pillow to support the baby bump. I am also sleeping propped up to help combat the intense burning in my chest (which I hope is acid reflux and not a heart attack)
Baby
Movement:
Yes but she hides when other people touch my belly. No one other then Justin and myself can seem to feel her.
Food
Cravings:
Nothing come to mind at the moment.
What
I Miss:
Feeling like me. I forget what it is like to be me with out being out of breath, having back pains, heart burn and all the other ailments that come with the territory.
Looking
forward To:
Christmas, Baby Showers and getting everything in her room and organized;)
Milestones:
Baby girl's ears are better developed and more sensitive than before. She may now be able to hear both Justin and my voices as we talk with each other.
You may have noticed this post is missing a baby bump pic too....Man I suck at that. I have got to try harder to document my hugeness.
Until Next Time.....
