27 weeks




 Baby is the size of a: Rutabaga
Gender: Girl
Feeling: Pretty good.
Maternity clothes: Yep! but I had to add regular clothes back into the mix... Kev's t-shirts for around the house :( My belly hanging out of my own t-shirts wasn't very flattering ;)
Sleep: Eh..switching from side to side still and baby girl has decided that just about every night around 4 am that it's play time.    
Best moment this week: Finding out our little girl is going to have another little girl to grow up with! We're so excited!
 Worst moment this week: Glucose test and not being able to zipper my spring jacket (since it actually got to 40!!). Another excuse to shop?! Ok ;)
Miss anything: Being comfortable when sitting on the couch haha
Movement: Lots of it!
Cravings: Tim Horton's white hot chocolate and flavored water.
Queasy or sick: Neither.
 Baby items I couldn't resist buying: Nothing new for me, but for gifts yes!
Looking forward to: Little to no plans this weekend.. we've been going non-stop since before the holidays so it'll be nice to work on the house and hopefully get the spare bedroom ready to turn into the nursery.
Next appointment: March 4th

26 weeks

 missed a week, blame it on baby brain! ;)


Baby is the size of a: Head of Lettuce
Gender: Girl
Feeling: Good for the most part. I've been having some back pains lately but it's been bearable.
Maternity clothes: Of course, but I'm sick of sweaters..when will Spring come?!
Sleep: Okay. I frequently wake up to switch laying from one side to the other but I fall back asleep pretty quickly.   
Best moment this week: Working on the shower invites.. getting super excited for the shower in a few weeks!
 Worst moment this week: Making yummy peanut butter oatmeal white chocolate chip cookies and not being able to taste the batter :( Time to find some egg-less cookie recipes.
Miss anything: My patience haha and being able to easily tie my sneakers and bowling shoes. I'm so happy I'll be able to wear flats when there is a bigger belly in the way.
Movement: Baby girl is VERY active. Early in the morning, late at night and lots of times throughout the day. And I finally got it on video :)
Cravings: Sweets still... I have to have something sweet after every snack/meal. Fingers crossed I pass this glucose test! 
Queasy or sick: Neither.
 Baby items I couldn't resist buying: The cutest little skirt that I hope she can wear for the 4th of July.
Looking forward to: 40 degree weather later this week even if it's for one day... I'm ready to not be cold 24/7!
Next appointment: In 2 weeks

24 weeks

 
Baby is the size of a: Cantaloupe
Gender: Girl
Feeling: Good!
Maternity clothes: Yep, the yoga pants are my favorite ;)
Sleep: Sleeping well for the most part. Best moment this week: Having a legit reason to snack for the majority of the day (Super Bowl!) without using my usual excuse of just being pregnant and hungry haha
 Worst moment this week: Having more cold weather, I'm ready to break out the spring maternity clothes!  Miss anything: Coffee whenever I want. I have a cup here and there when I know it's going to be a long day but I miss the mixed coffees with espresso and just being able to have as much as I want. Movement: Lots. One night the way she was positioned, and kicking at the same time, was making me very uncomfortable. Guess I need to get use to that!
Cravings: Sweets in general. 
Queasy or sick: Still feelin good. Baby items I couldn't resist buying: Nothing in the past few days but a friend dropped off the cutest Syracuse onesies for the little miss. I can't wait to see her in them. 
Looking forward to: Tomorrow when we get to hear the heartbeat again, I just love that.
Next appointment: Next Tuesday!
