22 Weeks

Baby Update: 22 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights from this week:

How far along? 22 weeks

Size of the baby? As long as a spaghetti Squash, 11 inches and 1 pound

Maternity Clothes? Yes! And they are so comfy! I can still wear some of my regular shirts and my workout clothes (not that I am doing much working out!) but all maternity pants. I just ordered a new pair of scrubs for work to get me through until she gets here.

Gender? Sweet baby GIRL!!!!!!!

Movement? Yes! I feel her move around a good bit when I sit still or late at night. The movement that I am feeling is more like twitching and bubbling, but it is definitely her! Feeling her a good bit more than last week. Still when I sit still and more at night.

Sleep? I am sleeping pretty well right now. I do have to get up at least once during the night to go to the bathroom. My lower back is also starting to hurt :-/

Cravings? Pretty much any kind of food. . . I am eating a LOT! I feel like I am getting huge. 

Symptoms?  This week I felt good. Thank goodness! Lower back is hurting some. 

What I miss?  Don't really miss anything right now. Maybe being able to fit into all of my clothes! 

Milestones? Making it to 22 weeks :-) Accomplished a lot in her nursery thanks to Cheryl. She helped us so much during her visit :-) 

What I am nervous about?  Naming this baby girl! We are having the hardest time deciding on her name! We both like the same names but cannot make a decision. If anyone has any suggestions, please send them my way!  

What I'm excited about? So much! Another week closer to meeting our girl. Her nursery! I have my monthly appointment Wednesday so I am excited to hear her heartbeat and get a good report.

Here is my 22 week picture. Getting bigger!! (Please excuse my hair!!!)

 And here is big sister supervising in the nursery.. She had a rough week last week and ended up having emergency surgery but thank the Lord she is doing much better! She really is the sweetest dog ever and we can't wait to see her with her baby sister :-)
