23 Weeks!

May 20, 2014 Leave a Comment

How far along? 23 weeks.
Baby size: A grapefruit.
Weight gain: Still doesn’t feel like much…but I’ll find out at my appointment this week!
Maternity clothes: Still wearing regular clothes with a belly band and lots of maxi dresses & skirts.
Sleep: Pretty good…I wake up on my back most nights and immediately turn on my side. I never slept flat on my back before but now that I’m not supposed to, it seems like it happens all the time!
Gender: GIRL!
Movement: All the time – I’m afraid of how that’s going to feel when she’s bigger and stronger. ha.
Best moment this week: Starting our baby registry…so overwhelming but so fun!
Looking forward to: Ordering the crib & bedding so we can start decorating the nursery.
Food cravings: Macaroni and cheese, orange juice, and things I can’t have…like a sub with deli meat.
Weirdest food I ate this week: Nothing too strange that I can think of.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not much of anything lately…and it’s so nice!
Labor signs: No.
What I miss: Mimosas…I never drank much to begin with, but I’ve had a mimosa craving since day one of finding out we were pregnant!
Symptoms: Exhaustion, occasional dizziness.
Workouts: Still running, and walking with Paige.
Things that suck: Getting tired so easily.

Things that don’t suck: VACATION/Babymoon Week beginning on Saturday – Wrightsville Beach, I’m ready for you!

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪
