How far along: 24 weeks. Man, do I still have a long way to go (112 days to be exact).
Weight gain/loss: Up a pound this week for a total of 11 pounds.
Feeling: My sciatica hurts less, the more I exercise. Strange, huh? I did hurt my knee somehow, so am taking it easy and icing it until it feels better.
Maternity clothes: Yes! My friend Lauren has a box waiting for me and I finally used the Gap gift card I got for my birthday on a few great tops. I love clothes, maternity or not!
Stretch marks: None. Jeff keeps reminding me to use the cocoa butter stick...like I ever plan to wear a bikini again or something.
Sleep: Ugggg. I hate to say that it's not so great, knowing what's to come. Luckily my early bedtime allows for plenty of rest.
Best moment(s) this week: I had a super busy weekend! Hung out with friends both Friday and Saturday evenings. It was just what I needed.
Food cravings: I don't care, just give me food. I am looking forward to salty Thanksgiving food this year like never before!
Gender: BOY and we have a name. I do plan on sharing, but for some reason I am not ready to just yet.
Movement: He's busy flipping around and doing karate moves in there.
What I miss: Feeling comfortable sitting on the floor. At Teacher Lee this week it was a little rough sitting on the floor during circle time. Yikes.
What I'm looking forward to: Today is our three year wedding anniversary. We are heading out ALONE for the first time in months. I don't even care that I can't celebrate with a glass of wine. I plan on stretching out my stomach for the feast Thursday. AND...Jeff has three days off this weekend for the holiday. What a way to celebrate!
Weekly wisdom: I discovered I can still hold my own during a workout session. I know my limits, but also know I need to workout for my physical and mental health while I can. I'm only 24 weeks and who knows how I'll be feeling just a week from now!
Milestones: Last week I took Leila to the ultrasound. She called it "Skyping" with the baby. It was too cute. We got some great pictures to take home and learned that as of a week ago he was about 1lb 2oz- a little bigger than average.
Due date: 3-13-13
