22 weeks

July 31, 2012
how far along? 22 weeks
Madelyn’s size: somewhere between 10.5-11.8 inches, about a pound!… about the size of a papaya     
weight gain: 0 pounds this week, 14 pounds total
maternity clothes: Yes.  I switch between non-maternity dresses, athletic clothing (stretched to the max), and maternity clothes.
stretch marks: Maybe 1...I'm not 100 % sure it is one, but I'm keeping my eye on it and will keep y'all posted! ;)
sleep: Sleeping a little better, I believe, but still finding it difficult to get comfortable
best moment this week: Having the energy to workout semi-consistently
food cravings: Nothing in particular.  I'm still snacking quite a bit, but I'm trying to keep it more in check
symptoms:  Fatigue is still better :)  I am feeling tired today, but I'm blaming it on driving to and from Atlanta  Sunday/Monday, for David's sister's surgery.  My emotions have still been a little more exaggerated. :( 
gender: Precious, baby girl!
belly button in or out: In.  It's less deep than it was even last week...it's popping out y'all!
movement: Yes. One night this past week, David and I were lying in bed and I started panicking because I realized I didn't think I had felt her move at all that day.  David reassured me not to worry; that everything was fine, and of course, he was right!  She has been making up for it every day since...moving a bunch!  She just needed a day to rest. ;) 
what I miss:  Nothing at the moment
what I'm looking forward to: Receiving gifts for Maddy, next week.  Seeing Madelyn again on the ultrasound and hearing her heartbeat, next week.  Going to the beach, Marissa Grace's birthday, Sissy's wedding shower, all next weekend!  Planning Madelyn's shower, which will be in September.  So many fun and exciting things to look forward to...unfortunately for me, I still have to wait over a week! :P

  2. You look so pretty in your pictures. So happy and glowy! I have felt the same way about not feeling baby move.Some days my baby is more active than others. Even though baby is kicking harder and harder these days, I crave that movement that reassures me baby is strong and healthy!

  3. Erikka, Thank you so much! At first glance, I thought you were saying I was huge! LOL. :D

    Joanna, Thank you! Sometimes I feel like I'm just being a crazy person. It's nice to know I'm not alone in feeling this way! :)
