Week 25 Pregnancy Journal

How far along? 25 weeks

Size of Baby: Cauliflower head ha!  13.5" and 1.5 pounds

Gender: Not finding out!  Kevin really likes this new middle name for the boy but I'm iffy.  


Weight Gain:  I was so excited about that 2 pound gain last week but I'm back down to what I was pre-pregnancy.  AKA I haven't gained any weight.  WEIRD because I definitely look bigger. 

Maternity Clothes: Regular clothes though I don't think some of them look great any more.  Definitely need the baggy shirts.  Things have redistributed!

Nursery:  It's getting painted tomorrow and if they finish we'll hopefully set up the crib this weekend! 

Movement: Yes and he/she is very active in the morning!

Symptoms:  Ribs and I had to take my headache medicine yesterday for the first time in awhile.  I think that was stress. 

Sleep: I cannot wake up in the mornings.  I am TOAST by the end of the day...evidently.  But I'm still trying to ignore my tiredness and continue on.  

Cravings:  I went to Trader Joe's on purpose last weekend for groceries instead of Harris Teeter solely so I wouldn't buy Salt and Vinegar chips.  I have always liked them but eating an entire bag between two weekends should be illegal...but it was done.  And I still didn't gain weight...evidently the baby likes them too and is absorbing them from me?!  Ha!

What I Miss:  Being able to sit for more than 10 minutes without my side killing me...but I will try not to complain because I'm thankful for the feeling at the same time.

Best Moment This Week:  Kevin felt the baby move which was very cool!  The stroller is all set up including the gadgets that go on it.  

Looking Forward To:  The nursery being painted will be a huge step in the right direction and it would be great to get the crib set up too.  Basically I want everything done yesterday and that's not reality.

  1. So exciting that the crib may go up this weekend! I feel like I will be SO similar to you in the "I want everything done yesterday" sense, considering that's how I am already :)

  3. So exciting to have the nursery painting! I'm totally with you that I wanted everything done so I don't have to worry about it anymore. Go for the chips girl, I went through Pringles like it was my job. (So embarrassing!)

  5. So much fun going on! Love that K got to feel the baby. That was a neat milestone for us because it really made J feel like it was real for the first time.

    I love chatting strollers. What'd you go with?
