25 weeks and Merry Christmas!

25 weeks pregnant


How far along? 25 weeks and 5 days
Total weight gain/loss: 18 (eep) pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight at my last appointment.
Maternity clothes? Puh, since 8 weeks. Elastic waists are COMFY!
Sleep: Sleeping well this week. Got to try out my Christmas present last night, a pregnancy wedge. Its GREAT!!
Best moment this past week: Many good moments, I stink at choosing just one. I enjoyed spending time with my family on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. My mother-in-law got to be the first one besides DH to feel the baby kick. I tried to get him to kick for my mom, but he was being stubborn.
Movement: I do notice that he likes to move most when I am laying on my back. It will be completely still in there, and then as soon as I lay down BAM he is moving like crazy. Lots of rolling sensations yesterday too.
Food cravings: Holiday food and chocolate.
Gender: Boy, John "Jake" Aaron.
Labor Signs: No thank goodness!
Belly Button in or out? Getting a little more "out" each week.
What I miss: Being able to bend over without getting breathless.
What I am looking forward to: Setting up the crib and dresser tomorrow and working on the nursery this week.
Weekly Wisdom: Take naps as frequently as possible. And get a pregnancy wedge for sleeping, its awesome!
Milestones: Someone other than DH and I got to feel Jake kick!
About the babe:
Let your spouse put an ear to your belly -- he might be able to pick up baby's heartbeat (no stethoscope required). Inside the womb, the formation of tiny capillaries is giving baby a healthy pink glow. Baby's also soaking up your antibodies, getting the immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and baby will soon perfect the blink -- perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.
