My friend Cat from work shared her blog with me last week (she had her baby last August, just a few weeks before Guenther is due... I love reading where she was this time last year, gives me comfort). We are told at work to shamelessly steal good ideas and run with them... and I love this part of Cat's blog... so, thanks Cat! Going forward, you'll get the weekly update below.
Weekly stats:
How far: 25 weeks (and 1 day, didn't want to rain on Lu's parade yesterday)
Weight gain: 8 lbs
Baby weight: 1.5 lbs
Maternity clothes: Mom took me shopping last night!! In LOVE! Super comfy.
Stretch marks: Oh yeah. Luckily Mikey says doesn’t mind them... and the reason behind them will be worth it in the end :)
Sleep: I sleep like a champ. On Friday night I woke Mike up approximately 8 times. Once with leg cramps, the other 7 for a bathroom break, or when I woke him up because I was awake, and we could be awake together. Other than that, I really have no trouble falling asleep. I love sleep.
Best moment this week: Spending the weekend together. BSA Baby Shower Friday night, Dinner with Matt and Tess, a night together in our clean, ready to sell, home, Lunch with Shaun, Erin, Otis and Cara, Dinner with Keith and Zo, a Sunday of fun shopping and relaxing.
Movement: He is a little kicking machine. Mike got to feel him kick for the first time this weekend!!
Cravings: Bagels (since day one), Ice Cream- Heath Blizzard or Concrete, Beer
Labor signs: no, yikes, its not time for that
Breakdowns: That is an understatement. I can’t handle leaving Mike, thinking about leaving Mike, etc. We’ve got to get him moved here soon.
Belly Button: still normal. Flattening out a litte
What I miss: Mike, our house, our dog, our time together. (and I’m crying writing this… thank you hormones)
Looking forward to: Meeting our sweet little boy
Milestones: Finding our rental home- we move in July 17th. It is absolutely perfect!!!! (Pics to come soon!)
love reading all of these, glad you are doing them!
