26 weeks

 How far along? 26 weeks  

Total weight gain/loss: Up 2 pounds this week! 12 total.

Maternity clothes?  I went out to lunch with girlfriends this weekend and stopped by Old Navy to check out their sale.  I picked up a shirt and two dresses.  They were running low on certain sizes and quantities, due to the sale, so I will be hitting up their website for online deals.  Their dresses are so comfortable and can be worn dressed up or dressed down...I love them.  I am in need of maternity tights too.  It is Fall and boot season, so they are much needed right now.  If you have any recommendations please comment below.

Stretch marks? No, I have been using Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion.  I take a bath in this stuff now..tummy, chest, sides and backside - it takes forever!

Symptoms: Tiredness and out of breath.  I had blood work and my glucose test done this week.  A few of my levels were low and it seems that I am a bit anemic.  The doctor told me to start taking iron supplements - hopefully that helps.  That could be the reason why I almost passed out a few weeks ago and going up the stairs has been a struggle.

Sleep: Is much better this week.  Sleeping almost through the night, except for the occasional bathroom run.

Best moment this week: Nursery/closet are painted and chandelier is in....Yaaayy!  

Have you told family and friends: Yes

Miss Anything? Not getting winded - I walked up a slight hill the other day and I struggled big time to catch my breath.

Movement: She really likes moving around in the evening.  I swear I can feel her flip around.

Food cravings: None this week - just thirsty all the time.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope.

Have you started to show yet: I grew so much in two weeks, my regular pants will not last much longer. 

Baby is a: GIRL! 

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

  

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy :) 

Looking forward to: My doctors appointment next week and going into the third trimester!
