How far along? 22 weeks
How big is baby? 15oz according to my anatomy scan the 13th.
Total weight gain? 7lbs
Maternity clothes? Yes.
Stretch marks? Old ones, and they are getting itchy.
Sleep? I am hardly sleeping at all. My youngest slept through the night for almost a whole week, but with my oldest spending the week with Nana and Papa, he's back to waking up 2-3 times a night. I guess Bubby snoring the night away helped him sleep.
Belly button in or out? In, but the top is starting to pop out a little. I have a shallow belly button without being pregnant, so I'm really not surprised.
Movement? Some thumping going on in there, getting stronger every time I feel her. Starting to feel her everyday, especially in the mornings and right after I lay down for bed. The anterior placenta makes the movements feel odd and makes me second guess if I'm feeling Valerie or if it's gas. =/
Boy or Girl? Three is a GIRL!
Food cravings? ICE. Omg, the craving for ice. I have to have the chewy ice from Huck's. My husband brings me 2 44oz cups full of it everyday. I love it. lol. I'm going to ask my dr for an iron check, as I think I may be anemic. Other than ice, I am craving junior mints like mad.
Labor signs? Not yet.
Symptoms? exhaustion, swelling, swollen nasal cavity resulting in some major congestion
Engagement rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time? This week I have been pretty depressed and off my game. My oldest is spending the week at my parents house and I miss him. I hate being away from him, but he is having a blast with Nana and Papa, going camping, swimming, and fishing with them and his cousins.
Best moment last week? Feeling Valerie move more and more. She is my last baby, so I am enjoying every little movement since I know I will not expierience this again.
Worst moment last week? My oldest being gone. My youngest misses his big brother as much as I do and it's heartbreaking to see him crawling from room to room looking for him.
Miss anything? Sleep, my old clothes.
Looking forward to? My oldest coming home Saturday. lol.

 | Comment from Cattsmeow » Posted Jul. 22, 2015 4:54pm pbc, I miss sleep so much! My youngest went from sleeping 7pm to 7am to sleeping 7pm to 4:30 or 5am, while waking 2+ times a night. I am exhausted by the time he's up for the day. Not to mention, I am still getting up at least twice to go to the bathroom. =/ MalPal, thanks! We all miss him and can't wait for him to come home. My house is WAY too quiet without him here. |
 | Comment from MalPal85 » Posted Jul. 22, 2015 2:02pm Sounds like everything is going well. I wake up constantly during the night too. It's not because I'm uncomfortable yet but I just think I have a lot my mind now and it wakes me up. Glad you get to see your oldest soon! |
 | Comment from pbc910 » Posted Jul. 22, 2015 1:02pm Sleep...I miss sleep. I wake up several times during the night and I've become a much lighter sleeper. I used to be able to sleep 8-9hrs solid but not anymore. At least I don't have to potty a million times during the night anymore! |
