How far along? 25 weeks - 63% complete!

Which trimester are you in? 2nd trimester :)

How many days until your due date? 105 days!!! Almost to double digits!!!

How big is baby? Eggplant according to this site.

What milestones has your baby reached this week? She is just working on packing on some pounds now! Her lungs are fully formed and she should be able to distinguish sweet and salty (probably mostly sweets, I've had quite the sweet tooth lately!)

What are some of your pregnancy symptoms? Pelvic pain, back pain, itchy belly and just skin overall, but I can blame that on the weather and being snowed in all weekend!

Any cravings? Sweets! Mostly cookies and brownies...

Any food aversions? I gagged at the smell of scrambled eggs cooking this morning... But other than that, nope.

What emotions have you experienced this week? Mostly happiness.

Are you wearing maternity clothes yet? Yep!!

Have any stretch marks? Nothing new.

How much weight have you gained? Up 11lbs.

Belly button in or out? Almost popped out, lol.

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Felt any movement? Yep! A few good kicks here and there, lol.

Gender? Girl.

How has your sleep been? Could be better... Wish I could get comfortable! This is starting early... :(

Are you nesting? Not even close...

Labor signs? Nope. But TMI... DH and I DTD over the weekend and when our daughter woke up from her nap, I brought her to lay with me in bed in hopes that she'd nap a little longer and I wasn't wearing a shirt and she latched and tried to nurse. Poor girl, my milk is dried up but she asks to nurse often, but it's too painful to dry nurse... Anyway, I had some cramps for a little bit after she tried to nurse and was actually a little worried, but it went away, luckily! No more nursing for her makes me a sad mommy :(

What was your best moment last week? Getting snowed in with my hubby and daughter! It was a nice weekend :)

What are you looking forward to this week? Getting out of the house! I'm slowly going to go insane, lol.

I loved all the snow we got, we hadn't really gotten anything this Winter yet except a light dusting earlier last week before the huge storm. I love the snow when I don't have to be out driving in it! :) Amanda, I can't wait until I'm in the double digits, it really does feel more like an official countdown! :)
