I was determined when I started this blog to update weekly. Not only did I want to be a consistent blogger, but I also wanted to have a weekly pregnancy update that I can look back on after Mason is born. I guess I have let the weeks get away from me. I mean where did summer go? These past few weeks I have been extremely busy getting my classroom ready for my sweet class of first graders. I officially begin my second year of teaching on Tuesday. As sad as it is to say goodbye to summer, I am excited to get back into my routine and begin the countdown to meeting our little boy. In my spare time I have also been working on getting the nursery together and resting. Until my next post I wish everyone a happy start to the 2012-2013 school year!
How far along?
26 Weeks
Total weight gain: 13 pounds
Maternity clothes? still rocking maternity shorts and leggings, but I also am wearing a few maternity shirts for my growing belly.
Stretch marks? none yet!
Sleep: a good nights sleep is hard to come by these days...I can never seem to stay comfortable for very long.
Best moment this week: getting an update from the doctor that Mason is measuring just the right size and hearing his nice strong heartbeat.
Miss Anything? I miss getting a good uninterrupted sleep (I better get used to it)!
Movement: I feel movement all of the time now. He is quite a strong kicker. Also, I think I felt his first hiccups this morning!
Food cravings: I still continue to crave chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate!
Anything making you queasy or sick: I still can't stand the sight or smell of dog food.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: Nope
Symptoms: I am beginning to experience the everyday aches and pains of pregnancy.
Belly Button in or out? it is about half in and half out.
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: I am mostly happy especially when I feel my little boy move.
Looking forward to: fall and all it beholds but really looking forward to meeting Mason in 14 weeks!
