How far along: 21 weeks, 2 days
Maternity clothes: Yes. Even though in this picture I am wearing regular clothes…it is VERY obvious. I FEEL HUGE and I am not even close to being to the end!
Stretch marks: No
Sleep: On and off. The last couple of nights I have woken up with leg cramps and have had to walk them off. I blame it on eating salty food (I know I need to drink more!). Other than that, I am really getting used to sleeping on my left side. Mike has made changes to where he sleeps to help out! 🙂
Best moment this week: Getting ready for Christmas! I was excited to get Mike his Aggie Fit pass so he can swim (and I can swim) whenever he wants to!
Miss anything: My waist. I’ve had a really hard time this week and keep telling myself to quit being selfish. I am more worried because I am gaining more than what the charts say I should be gaining, as well as my friends who have had kids before. I’ve been doing spin classes, elliptical, and walking and I’ve been watching what I eat, but my body LOVES to be big. 🙂
Morning sickness: None
Movement: Yes! Now that I know what it feels like, I can feel her a lot at night. She has her dad in her where she is more of a night mover than a day mover. I dance around in the morning and can feel her. Barney has to join in.
Food cravings: Cereal and salad. I made Mike go get Outback because I really wanted one of their side salads.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Some meats…the smell makes me sick. Also, Barney has this bacon cheese treats that I had to stop giving him because I seriously gagged!
Have you started to show yet: Amen!
Gender prediction: Girl. We are stuck on three names right now. I keep looking for a sign as to which one to choose! ha ha
Labor signs: No
Belly button in or out: In…but flat.
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I feel happy most of the time. I am extra moody today because of having a cold (the kids have all been SO SICK at school and it scares me…so I will take a cold!) and the fact that I feel huge and want to exercise like crazy! I am getting stir crazy! I have had some really good cheerleaders on the sidelines giving me “mom” advice so it helps!
Looking forward to: Going to Vegas this week…shopping, pedicures, and getting my hair done…I need it!
