baby #2: week 19 (adjusted time is 22 weeks)

august 19-25

what has been going on this week: enjoyed having thatcher home, blogger happy hour at maynard's, visited great grandma marian, pool date with emily, met baby lydia, went to bellyrama

size of baby:  6 inches long and weighs 8.5 oz. getting bigger! 

maternity clothes: wearing my pre-pregnancy shirts will soon be a thing of the past. i keep having to retire them, one by one. i've been trying to supplement my wardrobe with longer non-maternity shirts that i can wear after baby, as well., because i hate spending money on clothes i'll only wear for a few months. i did get some maternity leggings from old navy, though, that i'm super excited to wear this fall! 

symptoms: same old - broken out skin, hungry all the time, super tired (i fall asleep around 9pm every night and nap as often as i can), i've even started having some braxton hicks contractions. i didn't have them until 31 weeks last time. wow! 

movement: movement is becoming wider spread and higher up. so fun! my mom felt baby move the other day, which she loved. 

gender: tomorrow. TOMORROW! ahhh!

food cravings/aversions: loving pretty much all foods - sad that we didn't make it to the fair yet, next weekend, though! 

morning sickness: can't seem to kick that little bit of nausea i still feel in the morning. hmph. 

what i miss: cooler weather...it's been in the 90's lately. bleh. 

best moment of the week: just a good week all around. 

what thatcher is saying: he bought a really sweet 8x10 print on his trip for baby's nursery :) 

sleep: up once each night around 3:30am for the bathroom, otherwise still decent

what i'm looking forward to: our ultrasound tomorrow morning and our little gender reveal tomorrow night. tomorrow morning i'll post some thoughts on the sex and you can vote!
