22 weeks!

How far along: 22 weeks

Baby Growth: Baby is about 11 inches and 1 pound which is pretty accurate since 2 weeks ago  he/she was measuring 12 oz. Baby's eyes are formed but lack color. He/she is looking like an actual newborn just not as fat and not as big!

My Symptoms: I am doing pretty good! I have had this lingering cold and cough that just will not go away since we got back from the cruise 2 weeks ago! 

I get some pelvic pain if I do too much in one day, but it hasn't been too bad lately, thank the Lord! This pregnancy has been SOOOO easy so far. I'm so nervous that the third trimester and deliver will be awful because of how easy its been. I pray it's all just easy and this means baby will be super easy! 

Gender:  unknown!

Weight gain:  I am at about 8-10 pounds gained. It fluctuates a little. I am ok with this because I know its pretty normal for this point, but really hope I can stay under 30 total pounds gained. With Lakelyn i hit 45 pounds and never got the extra 15 pounds off. I was super close to being back to my pre pregnancy weight with her before I got pregnant this time! With Tallen I only gained like 30-33. I got back to my pre pregnancy weight with him by just watching what I ate and drank! I was on my way to losing Lakelyn's weight when I got pregnant. So like I said hoping the weight stays under control so that after breast feeding when I can finally work on my weight again it will go down to what I was before I got pregnant this time. 

and yes my body is one that holds on to every bit of weight while breast feeding and ANY type of change will affect my milk supply! Walking, not drinking or eating enough, sit ups, legit EVERYTHING messes with me so I am unable to do too much unless I want to make a switch to formula. 

Maternity clothes: ummm.. yes. if it doesn't stretch then it doesn't fit.

Stretch marks: No new ones! I don't believe I got any new ones with Tallen and i'm hoping for the same this time.

Belly button in or out: In

Sleep: It has been pretty good, but this cold does mess with me some. Either congestion and can't breathe or super sore throat that will wake me up. Once i'm awake it's hard to fall back asleep because my husband likes to snore!

Best moment this week: This week just started, but last week.. I'm just grateful we made it through the week and it was a short one because of memorial day. It was so dang hot!

Worst moment this week: The crazy weather!! Seriously we hit 100+ temps for like a week straight! and its only MAYYYY! It's not even legit summer time yet. I'm probably going to die before July gets here. I am not a fan of the heat anyway and now i'm largely pregnant during it? nope..

Miss anything:  The cold weather!

Movement: Starting to get more and more of it and its getting stronger and stronger <3

Cravings: I can't think of anything off the top of my head, but i've been into alot of sweets and sugar. 

Queasy or sick: Been feeling great!

Wedding rings on or off: On

Looking forward to:  We're going on another little vacation next week to Great Wolf Lodge! Hoping that is fun. July has some good stuff coming up like Christmas in July  movies, Prime day. 

Belly Pictures:  Didn't even realize there was a piece of string on my shirt! Oh well, just shows how great I was feeling!
