Week 25



Week 25
·  Size of baby: He now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga
·  Weight gain: 122 at our doctor appointment Monday!  .   
·  Symptoms experienced: Higher than average numbers. I decided that because it was my bday week (ish) I was going to cheat. And cheat I did. Plus baby A got the hiccups this morning!!!
·  How I feel: nervous, calm, happy, tired, battered, in love, and older.
·  What I've been craving: anything with sugar. There are currently 7 layer bars in the oven. Mm butterscotch, coconut, chocolate chips, walnuts, and graham crackers!
·  What I miss: Eating without thinking. And my normal brain powers. I forget everything. Lately it’s been forgetting to check! That’s not good! I’ll even go and wash my hands to test and then completely get sidetracked. Hubs told me this is what it’s like to be normal. Goodbye superbrain powers and memory :(
·  Best moment: Benihana’s with my mom and hubs. They give each bday person a 30$ gift card for the month of their bday, and all three of us are October so our huge expensive dinner was $90 off! Plus for my bday hubby surprised me with two baby outfits he picked out himself for baby A. he knows that means a lot to me to have him excited. That and when it seems like baby A interacts with whomever is talking to him or poking him.
·  Items purchased: His two new onsies from daddy:)

I know I have been really terrible about updating what has been going on… I will try and catch up on everything. But my mom has been here (!) and its been go go go!

Small update.. not lengthy:

 Tomorrow I go see a specialist for a boob issue my doctor wanted checked out. My boobs have been leaking for a good while now during the day and one night they were leaking a clear, but bright red. It only lasted for a little then it was clear again, but when I mentioned it to the Dr. she set up a consult at the Cancer center (?!?!?!) for some boob smushing and tests. I don’t really have the boobs to smash for a scan (as my dr also agreed) but they will make it work. Dun dun dunnnnnnn.

Baby A is a super star. The Dr. confirmed that I have a VERY active little boy that likes to make mommys life funny. He sticks, what I now know is his butt, really high and lopsided out my stomach and pressed. My mom poked at him today and he kicked at her. Silly man. I can also feel him during the day when I am doing other things, not just sitting still. He is even wiggling as a type this.
