25 weeks

How far along? 25 weeks  

Total weight gain/loss: 10 pounds total.

Maternity clothes? Some of my regular tops are way too snug now, so I am looking into purchasing a few more basic tops and dresses. I really don't want to spend a ton of money since it is only for a few months.  I have been looking for deals at Kohl's, Motherhood Maternity and Old Navy.  I needed to get a dress for a wedding next weekend, so I purchased one at Pea in the Pod.  I wouldn't normally go there for everyday maternity clothes due to how expensive things are, but they had a few cocktail dresses that worked and I even got to use a $25 off coupon.  Their designer jeans are to die for, just way out of my price range at the moment. 

Stretch marks? No, I have been using Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion.  

Symptoms: Well, I spoke too soon about the leg cramps last week.  Oh my goodness did I have some horrible legs cramps last Friday morning.  I screamed so loud the poor cat jumped off the bed.  That was the worst I've had them the entire pregnancy.  I have been trying to stretch daily and eat more food items with potassium. 

Sleep: Trying to go to bed earlier since I am waking up at 4AM every morning.

Best moment this week: Getting my baby clothing order from Kohl's in the mail. 

Have you told family and friends: Yes

Miss Anything? Sitting and being comfortable.

Movement: Lots of movement in the early morning hours and evening when I am relaxing in bed.

Food cravings: Sherbert with mini chocolate chips.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Certain smells.

Have you started to show yet: Yes, I feel like I am getting bigger everyday. 

Baby is a: GIRL! 

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

  

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: UGH...well I was hopeful, but I still have my moody moments.  I can cry at the drop of a hat and every little thing gets to me sometimes.  I need to just breathe through it and think happy thoughts :)

Looking forward to: Getting the Nursery painted this weekend.  I will be sure to blog about the recent progress to the room.  It takes me a lot longer to do things these days and home projects is one of them.
