How far along: 23 weeks, 4 days
Size of baby: almost 12 inches, 1.5 pounds!
Gender: It's a GIRL....Kodi Reese
Weight gain: a little over 8 pounds
Maternity Clothes: Definately! I do enjoy the maternity pants with the comfy band! HA! and I am still loving yoga pants.
Movement: Yes! She apparently loves basketball games! We have been to several high school playoff games lately and she went crazy! I so hope she LOVES basketball as much as her mama does! (Hint, hint, Reese!) She also loves to move when I lay down at night...from 10 to midnight, she's pretty active. My sister insists she is already in a sleep pattern, if so, she is going to be a night owl, and I am NOT! We may have a problem there!!
Sleep: Pretty good, I love to sleep on my belly and that is getting almost impossible! I wake up at least once or twice to go to the bathroom.
Symptoms: None really, had a couple of episodes of indigestion but nothing a few Tums wouldn't cure. I've had bad leg cramps the past week, don't have a clue if that is pregnancy related or not?? Anyone?
What I miss: I can't think of a single thing I would rather be doing right now than growing a baby!! :)
Cravings: My salt has been replaced with chocolate milk! I love to have a glass at bedtime!
Best moment of the week: Getting the nursery painted and the carpets cleaned...that means MOVE IN THE FURNITURE!! We have the changing table and bed put up and are going to tackle the dresser next weekend. See below for a nursery "sneak peek."
I have a Dr. appt on Thursday, I am excited to see my little Reese on the U/S! Hopefully, he will get a good 4D picture this week.
I received the bedding this week and couldn't wait to rip it open and see it. It was perfect! I love it. The wall is a very pale Robin's egg blue, the picture isn't showing the "true" shade...but, take my word, it's perfect. And, yes, I have been asked many, many times....my nursery IS blue, but I am still having a GIRL!! Trust me, it will be very femine when I am finished, I am just not a girly pink kinda girl. Red is more my color and I have some cute red accessories planned!!
