Week 22 Update

What a great weekend. Even though I didn't clean as much as I normally do, I still was productive. The big project from the weekend was painting the nursery! I love how it turned out! (Although I feel like my shirt now blends in with the wall....oh well!) Having it all painted is really helping me envision everything else. I feel like things are going to start to come together pretty quickly now.


How far along?: 22 weeks, 3 days
Baby is the size of a: Papaya
Total weight gain/loss: 19lbs
The Bump: It's pretty obvious now, no matter what I wear, that I'm pregnant. Finally!
Symptoms: I'm noticing that I get tired much quicker from things that used to not make me tired. Kinda frustrating.
Food Cravings: Baked goods. Things like cookies and oreos. So bad, I know....
Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Nope!
Sleep: Sleeping pretty good still!
What I miss: My old body. I'm so excited to have finally gotten to the point of really being pregnant, but I really miss having no physical limitations. I'm tired of not being able to fend for myself.
Weddings Rings On or Off: On
Any Names Picked Out Yet: Charlotte Noel
Gender Prediction: Still a girl!
Movement: I definitely feel her multiple times a day. If I'm laying down I can actually feel her from the outside!
Maternity Clothes: Still looking for good deals on maternity clothes. Went to buy some at the outlets over the weekend, and nothing struck me. Guess I'll keep rotating my five outfits.
Labor Signs: None.
Best Moment of the Week: Feeling her kick from the outside. My husband hasn't felt it yet, because it's so hit or miss. Not to mention, it's easy for me to feel it, because I'm feeling it from the inside.
What I’m excited about/looking forward to: Finishing the nursery! I have three projects lined up! I can't wait to see the final product.

  1. You are beautiful. I totally understand your excitement over looking pregnant. I'm at the same point where I have a real pregnant belly - not just flub. haha However, I am missing out on some of the things I did before I was limited - I forget I'm limited until I do things that make me uncomfortable.
