Baby #2: 25 Weeks!!

How far along? 25 weeks - crazy to think it is 15 weeks or less until we meet sweet babe #2
Total weight gain: 10 pounds...and after the holiday binge I have been on this past month, I'm actually surprised!
Maternity clothes? Some, mostly regular clothes still
Stretch marks? Nope!
Sleep: More insomnia or waking up early these days for no reason other than a racing mind of all that needs done that day/week
Best moment this week: Celebrating Christmas with all of our families, and having 3.5 days off of work to spend with LA.

Miss anything? Nothing to really complain about! Have been letting myself enjoy 1 Diet Pepsi a week recently. :S
Baby is the size of a: Cauliflower

Movement: More and more, and getting stronger all the time! Starting to feel kicks on both sides of my belly at the same time.
Food cravings: Waffles maybe? Or just food in general?
Anything making you queasy or sick: Mexican food does not sound too good.
Gender: Only 15 weeks at most until we all find out. It has been SO fun not knowing this time, and not even the ultrasound techs know.
Name: Girl is a go, boy is undecided...still. Daddy thinks he should get to completely pick the name for this little one. I think he should get to pick from the list I give him :)
Labor Signs: N/A
Symptoms: Tailbone pain has been SO much better these past couple weeks. I can actually walk again without pain. So very thankful for that. Heartburn is still occasional but becoming more frequent. Also forgot to note before that my lovely linea nigra returned right at about 20 weeks and is only getting darker. Still just below my belly button for now. Also starting to feel baby up in my ribs already.
Things People Say: Nothing much this past week

Belly Button in or out? It is officially an OUTTIE. "It popped out a little soon, don't ya think?" - Daddy. Gotta love him!
Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy. Content. Soaking up every minute.
Looking forward to: Getting the dreaded OGTT over with in a week or so. I'm just positive I have gestational diabetes after this past month.


Love and Prayers in Week 26, Babe!!
