Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 25 Weeks

So this post will be a little picture heavy but I'm hoping to make up for the lack of posting lately.

Size of Baby: About 14 inches - the length of a hothouse cucumber - and weighs 1 pound, 7 ounces. The weight is pretty accurate since that is what the sonogram tech said she was weighing. This puts her in the 40th percentile.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I actually forgot to weigh myself this week. I'm sure I'm climbing on up especially since I had to cut way down on my exercise due to some intense pains that I did not have when pregnant with Gavin. In fact, it was those pains that led me to call the doctor (after two weeks) who then ordered me to get the sonogram done. I got over the three hour wait once I was able to see baby girl.

Maternity Clothes: I'm still sporting a mixture of maternity and regular clothes.

Gender: It's a GIRL! Her cheeks were so round compared to just seven weeks ago.

Movement: She has been a little wiggle worm lately, but definitely has periods of quite time too. I think she has had the hiccups a few times like her big brother used to get.

Sleep: I am having some seriously weird dreams lately.

What I miss: Not being achy everywhere.

Cravings: I have wanted foods that have protein like cheese and nuts.


Best Moment of the Week: Seeing baby girl was definitely the best! I couldn't get over her sweet little face. Gavin has also been extremely affectionate to her too. Just this week, he told her he missed her.

I probably won't be able to blog my 27th week update, but here's the picture of me in the same shirt about as far along pregnant with each of our children. I'm definitely carrying them differently.
