22 Week Update

How Far Along:
  22 Weeks

Size of the Baby:

  Baby is the size of a Papaya!

Maternity Clothes:

Thanks to my friend Ruthie,

I now have a pair of maternity jeans that actually look good!!

Weight gain:

Still at the 12lb weight gain marker.

Sleep:

Micah was on a missions trip in Mexico all week,

so I got our queen size bed all to myself...

it was glorious!

I missed Micah terribly, but slept great.

Best Moment of the Week:

Micah brought back the cutest baby dress from Mexico.

I can't wait till she can wear it!

 

Movement:

She's still kicking around in there,

but I seem to notice it more at night (and in the middle of the night).

This little girl has already got her days and nights mixed up!

Food Cravings:

No specific cravings...

I'm just hungry ALL THE TIME!

Gender:

Baby Girl.

Belly Button in or out:

In 

 

Wedding ring on or off:

On

Anything making you queasy or sick:

Nope

What I miss:

There are a few things...

Coffee is still high on my list,

but I also miss being able to play

and run around with Silas in the backyard.

What I am looking forward to:

I'm looking forward to hitting the 37 week marker and being considered "full term".

I know I still have a ways to go, but at times I still worry a lot 

that something will go wrong again with the pregnancy.

I just want to hit that marker so some of my worry will go away.

Nursery:

I finally finished my year long crochet baby blanket project!

I'll post pictures soon.

 

Ways to Relax:

While Micah was gone in Mexico, I was able to do a lot of crocheting.

I made a baby sweater, a baby hat, and baby leggings.

I also have read through book 3 in the Anne of Green Gables series...

only 3 more books to go.
