22 Weeks

How far along? 22 weeks  (Little late posting, but I had typed it last week)
Total weight gain: 7 pounds
Baby is the size of a: Small doll
Maternity clothes? Tank tops, but also getting excited about breaking out my maternity leggings!
Stretch marks? Trying to stay really diligent with my cocoa butter...
Sleep: Can't complain! I also just got a pregnancy wedge while we were registering and that + my Snoogle pillow are making things pretty tolerable right now
Best moment this week: Laying in bed this morning, watching my belly while it was raining and thundering outside. I can feel a wave when she moves from one side of my belly to another, and can always feel right where she is at when I'm laying down. I layed there soaking it all up for about 2 hours more just because I could :)

Here is a pic from my morning laying in bed watching her move. I am laying
completely flat, and that sticking up on the right is either her head or butt. I could
feel a wave of movement when she went from the left side to this.
Nothing better than enjoying this while it is raining outside :)
Miss anything? Still Diet Pepsi, being able to bend easy in the middle
Movement: This past week and a half she has been moving a lot! She's getting strong enough that it is almost distracting at times.
Food cravings: Ice water, Chicken fried steak.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing!
Gender: GIRL!
Baby Name: Haven't talked about this much recently
Labor Signs: None
Symptoms: Just some indigestion still, and feeling really really hot all.the.time. I have always had hot flashes even before pregnancy, but now it seems like I just have one continuous hot flash. I am thankful that it isn't 120 degrees outside anymore, but today it was 80 degrees and I thought I was dying. Good thing winter is coming up, I think the cooler weather is going to be perfect timing.
Belly Button in or out? Getting more and more shallow...it's about to be neither in or out
Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, of course
Looking forward to: Being another week closer to December!!
