Let your spouse put an ear to your belly -- he might be able to pick up baby's heartbeat (no stethoscope required). Inside the womb, the formation of tiny capillaries is giving baby a healthy pink glow. Baby's also soaking up your antibodies, getting the immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and baby will soon perfect the blink -- perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.How far along? 25 weeks
Movement? Yup, I'm feeling him in different places now cause of how big he's getting.
Food cravings? I want sweet tea. And white rice with butter. Still all stuff that I would eat normally. Nothing that I either have never had or don't like.
Gender? It's a BOY!
Labor signs? Nope.
What I miss? Sweet Tea. I really want some.
What I'm looking forward to? My next appointment on Monday (though that means I'll be scheduling the glucose test too)
Weekly Wisdom: None
Milestones: Registering for childbirth preparation class!
Emotions: Jason didn't want to consider moving his uniform fittings for a Saturday birth class. I was more than pissed. Long story, but he called up after his band meeting last night and has said he can do the class. Before that though, I was mixed between pissed and upset and crying.
Total weight gain/loss? Up 1 from last week, up 4 overall.
Maternity clothes? Pretty much everything full time now. I need to buy a swim suit still. Perhaps this weekend. I've been delaying it to see how my belly would sit.
Stretch marks? Nope.
Sleep? I wake up about once a night now. Though, I don't always have to get up. I have to sleep more upright due to heartburn. And, even though it's uncomfortable and not the best thing to do, I have to start out on my back. I have this thing where if I lay down on my side right away, I feel sick to my stomach, and have gotten sick once before from it. So, I have to start on my back first, then right as I'm ready to fall asleep, I can turn to my side. Plus, my hands get numb pretty quickly now too if I sleep on my side, kinda weird, but I heard can be normal.
Best moment this week? A good friend's baby shower, the shower invites in the mail, registering for the birthing class...
