Week 25

Another week has come and gone.  This past week has had more ups than downs I must say overall.  I have been consistently walking more often and that has made me feel stronger.  It has been great getting use to a new schedule and embrace walking as my new form of exercise.  It also helps to have walking buddies, my friend and my puppies!  It does us all some good and the weather is hopefully cooling down a little.  I can't wait until it is October and this heat will be behind us all here in Texas!

I have noticed that I have been feeling more heartburn than ever but it has not been too bad overall.  I just keep my fingers crossed that this means she will have a full head of hair when she is born!!  I did when I was born so I am hoping the same for her!  It also makes me wonder what color her hair will be because mine was midnight black and my husband's was platinum blonde!  I can't wait to meet this tiny human we have made!!  She is our little miracle!  

I am also glad to have made it to 25 weeks, because I have read that at 26 weeks the baby has a greater chance of survival if she does come earlier than planned.  I will say it does make me stop and think of all the things that are possible of happening and pray that she comes when she is good and ready.  

How Far Along? - 25 weeks  

Size of our BP - about the size of a squash 

Maternity clothes - so got the online order and size was too big so trying one more time & crossing fingers b/c I really am wanting some cute dresses to wear!

Gender - baby girl 

Sleep - was doing better except for the last couple of days starting to getting uncomfortable again.

Food cravings - this week has been a mix of chocolate and pizza but not together :)   

What I miss - how my hair use to feel.  Since the pregnancy it feels more coarse.

Symptoms - still feeling heartburn but mostly at night when I go to bed and pretty mild 

Belly Button - still an innie!  

Best Moment This Week - we finally got the dresser and even though it took my dear husband 4 hours to put together I am so glad we have it so I can start washing clothes and putting them in their proper place!!
