Baby Wisely: 23 Weeks

How far along? 23 weeks (over a pound, 11 inches)

Best moment this week: Having my mom feel her kicking on her birthday! (She wasn't kicking all day, then gave her one good kick to say hello)

Movement: Still our little jumping bean

Food cravings: Nothing to report!

Anything sounding disgusting? Still not feeling super great-- so anything that doesn't feel great on the throat is a no-go.

How's the belly? Really strained this week-- keep getting super sore muscles where she's growing bigger. Ribs feeling pummeled; happy she's growing bigger-- hoping my skin can keep up.

Sleep? Alright-- still wishing I could breathe comfortably-- stupid cold!

Belly button situation? Silly. I find that I play with it sometimes. I tell you, there is probably nothing creepier than someone playing with their belly button. I'm working on it. :)

Clothing situation? Tight! Maternity work pants are in my future. Officially can't fit into anything that I dubbed 'oh-- this could be cute with a baby belly one day' clothes. I've jumped from not too preggers to ultra preggers in a short period of time I feel like.

I'm generally feeling: Full of a killer sinus headache! Hoping to be healthy by the hubby's 30th birthday this week. Very much looking forward to happy festivities!

Here are a few more snapshots from the week-- March Madness basketball dress up day at work:



Tearing up the shelving unit by our mantle, to make room for our new ladder shelves. We are tackling the cords at the moment, I will post a pic of the finished product.
