Total weight gain/loss: +23 lbs (13 this pregnancy, +10 from Naomi)
Maternity clothes? Yes mostly. Some bigger t-shirts and I have a couple pairs of shorts that aren't maternity, but have a stretchier waist, so they work.
Stretch marks? Not yet, but can tell the couple I ended up with from Noah are "flaring up" (?)
Sleep: Not so good. It is extra hard because I end up keeping Jimmy awake with all my tossing and turning and he needs his sleep too, of course. I have pretty bad restless legs most nights and they can keep me up for 2-3 hours :(. Some nights I also have a hard time breathing, so the combo is really no fun.
Miss Anything? Yes. I miss it not being in the 90°s and super humid constantly! But, praise the Lord, it looks like we're getting a little bit of a break this week.
Movement: This little boy is moving a lot these days, which is wonderful. He gets the hiccups pretty much everyday and sometimes jabs some body part out so you can feel it, like a lump on the side of my belly. Really fun for me :).
Food cravings: Sweets and comfort foods.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I think I am more sensitive to smells right now, so if there is a yucky smell, it seems worse to me than it actually is, but nothing that really makes me nauseated.
Have you started to show yet: Yes, more people commenting on my belly and asking when I'm due :).
Gender: Baby Brother!!
Labor Signs: No, and I want them to hold off for now, but if they could show up in a few weeks and not wait forevs like they did with Noah, I would be very appreciative.
Belly Button in or out? Still so far in.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I am happy and very grateful for the life God has given me, I truly love where we are as a family and can't wait for this little guy to get here! That being said, I have a much harder time controlling my mood swings than I should and that is just hard on everyone.
Size of Baby: 17+ inches and 4-5 lbs!! Can't believe it!
Exercise this week (this is for my own accountability): Mon: Ran 4 miles with Noah, Tues: off, Wed: Ran 4.1 at Y, Thurs: Ran 4.1 at Y, Fri: Swam 1600 yards at Y, Sat: Ran 5 miles with Noah.
How about Big Brother?
Oh my goodness, I love that little guy so much! He is becoming more and more social. He seems to LOVE going to The Y now and says "Hi! hi! hi!" to all the childcare workers whenever we go. He loves to run around and be tickled and tries to "jump!" but can't get off the ground yet. He has learned to climb on the coffee table and talks all the time about "go on table! Up high!" which we let him do because it is amazingly entertaining. He said "I love you, mama" the other day and says "I love you, dada" too. It is the sweetest. He LOVES the toddler pool at the Y and tries to make friends with all the other kids while running around in the water. He has also almost figured out how to blow bubbles in the water! He speaks mostly in sentences, which amazes us and is really adorable. We just love our little man and can't wait to introduce him to his baby brother!!
