22 weeks

22 weeks!

How far Along:  22 weeks
Weight Gain/Loss: +2
Sleep: my sister's pillow arrived today, let's see if it makes a difference
Clothes: I love my maternity pants. I bought 2 pairs of below the belly jeans and hey are my favorite. I think I will end up in them after the baby is born! I also bought a few shirts/ tanks
Movement: I tried to get B to feel the movements. They may not be strong enough for him to feel and he isn't that into it!
Exercise: just lots of good food this week!
What I Miss: I will probably miss a glass of wine or two on xmas... merely to cope with some crazy family antics!!
Looking forward to: the next busy week!
Next Appointment: Jan 8
Names: still sitting on Cora. She doesn't have a middle name though. I originally wanted to use Ann as a middle name for a girls. It is both of our mothers' middle name. But both of our mothers' names also start with a C and I don't really want to give my baby girl the exact same initials as her grandmother.

21 Weeks

21 weeks!

How far Along:  21 weeks
Weight Gain/Loss: +1
Sleep: Still not too good. Going to ask my sister to bring down her tempur-style pillow to try when she is down for xmas
Clothes: full time in maternity pants, shirts are still mostly ok. Bras on the other hand are out of control.... more that my boobs are out of control. Was feeling a bit uncomfortable in my bra again so I headed back tot he maternity store. I had bought 4 bras about a month ago and only wore 2.  I was fitted the next cup size. After trying to return them, and only finding sports bras in my size, I went to Victoria's Secret. They confirmed my size and I bought 2 bras there..... 8 bras bought during pregnancy so far!
Movement: Lots and lots! I just love it!
Exercise: Still planning on going back to yoga after the holidays
Looking forward to: the holidays!
Next Appointment: Jan 8
Names: since we found out Little One is a Little Lady, we are concentrating on more girls names! (Still have to feed the masses some boys though.) On my original list of names, collectively from years ago, Cora is the only girls name. We both like it....

Clothes: full time in maternity pants! I bought maternity leggings for Nutcracker and got my Old Navy order in.
