26 weeks with baby #2



How far along? 26 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 7 lbs

Maternity clothes? Some pants and tops are maternity but a few regulars still fit.

Stretch marks?  None.

Sleep: Like the dead. I can always sleep.

Best moment this month: Finding out baby girl was okay after a scary visit to labor and delivery at 24 weeks. 

Movement: Feeling lots of movement and some are getting quite big!

Food cravings:  Not much. Fruit is good and so is bread.

Gender: Still a girl!
   
Labor Signs: None, thankfully! Confirmed by labor and delivery, lol!

Belly button in or out? In but starting to show a little.

What I miss: Not having heartburn, not having back and hip pain!

What I am looking forward to: 3d/4d ultrasound around 30 weeks.

Monthly Wisdom: Rest when you can! Your hips suck!

Milestones: Viability!

Maternity clothes? A few tops but only to emphasize my bump and make me look more pregnant less chubby.

Best moment this month: Morning sickness has subsided! I'm still sick off and on, but I'm not completely useless!

Movement: None, it's too soon!

Food cravings:  Not a thing. Nothing sounds all that good or all that terrible. Food is just blah.

Gender: Unknown but if I had to guess, I'd say boy!?!
   
Labor Signs: None, thankfully!

Belly button in or out? Very in.

What I miss: Feeling good! I can't wait for my energy to return!
