Gluten Free Bumpdate - Week 22

How far along? 22 weeks (23 when this posts)

Total weight gain: I did not weigh myself this week.

Maternity clothes? Yes.

Stretch marks? Nope!

Sleep: Mediocre at best, my growing belly and side sleeping isn't making for the most comfortable rests.

Best moment this week: Celebrating my husband's birthday (including dinner at Eleven Madison Park), more excitement at work, and my husband getting to feel Bricket's kicks!

Miss anything? Being able to bend over to put my shoes on normally. It's the small things in life, right?

Movement: Yes, lots of hard kicks! My husband definitely feels them now. They are much stronger than a week ago, and quite honestly hurt a little bit sometimes! 

Food cravings: None.

Anything making you queasy or sick: I think I had completely overexerted myself last week and the beginning part of this week, and ended up feeling really ill and headachey for a couple of days. I'm not used to my 'reduced speed' haha. So taking it easier this weekend!

Gender: Boy!

Labor signs: Nope!

Symptoms: The usual - food aversions are still there but getting weaker, a bit of acne still, and some back achey-ness. I think I've been having round ligament pain; I'm having sore muscle-feeling aches in my lower abdomen for a few minutes every so often (typically when over exerted).

Belly button in or out? In.

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy. Life continues to be good to me :)

What are you looking forward to? I'm being scanned to see if my previa has resolved (fingers crossed!), work stuff, and babymoon #2 in a few weeks!
