Here we go again…April Update

How far along? 25 weeks, 1 day
Total weight gain/loss: +12 pounds {“Beautiful weight gain”…to quote my OB}
Stretch marks? Nada
Maternity Clothes: All in on the maternity pants, though some of my regular jeans have made an appearance here and there with the help of my BellaBand. And I’m about 50/50 on tops.
Sleep: Somewhat restless lately.
Best moment this month: Rylee has decided it’s fun to kiss my belly/her baby sister. And, yep, it’s just as cute and sweet as it sounds!
Movement: So.Much.Movement. And pretty much all the time. A few times has been so hard it’s nearly doubled me over!
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: Nope
Food Cravings: I have had a MAJOR sweet tooth lately. It’s bad…really, really bad…like, get that oreo no-bake cheesecake out of my refrigerator bad.
Belly Button in or out? It’s just almost flat. And it looks about as attractive as it sounds.
What I miss: Oh man, with everything we had going on this past month, I missed wine! I really could’ve used a drink with all that water drama we had going on. And a mimosa sounds really nice on Easter.
What I am looking forward to: Continuing a healthy pregnancy. Maybe a name?
Baby Milestones: Baby’s eyes are starting to open. Baby weighs close to 2 pounds at this point and is about 10 inches long.
Other Goodness: Dr. B sent me on my way with papers for my glucose screening test and the nasty flat soda…I get to do that test in about 3 weeks.

Yesterday I scheduled a hospital tour that’s done especially for “expecting siblings”.

My next appointment is May 15! After my next appointment we start the every other week appointments…how the HELL is that even possible!? Didn’t I just find out I was pregnant like, 3 weeks ago?

Be on the lookout for a post delving into the world of baby naming!

At 30 weeks I’m going to do a side by side comparison of this pregnancy and Rylee’s!

Rylee turns 4 in about a month…to help celebrate, I’m going to share her birth story!

Is this not the sweetest thing ever?
