Mark Twenty Three Weeks Off Your Calendar People!

How Far Along?
23 weeks, 1 day!
 

Weight Gain?

Next doctors appointment is the 7th!

 

Stretch Marks?:

None to report yet.

 

How big is Little Ninja S?

Holy moly we got a grapefruit!

 

Maternity Clothes?

The have officially been taken out of the bag and hung up in the closet, still haven't let into them yet though.  I did finally buy a belly band the other day so I might test drive that bad boy out tomorrow with some of my long lost jeans I stopped wearing weeks ago.

  

Best moment this week?

This is more of a several moment kind of thing but I think my favorite moments this week have been when I'm laying in bed and Adam just nonchalantly puts his arm around my tummy and immediately I can feel Ninja start kicking or pushing on where his arm is.  I've never really understood people that said things like "oh they already know their daddy's voice or touch" so it blows my mind that for anyone else that tries to feel him move I have to poke and prod him but Adam just lays his arm across me and he starts moving immediately.   

Miss Anything?

I have had an intense craving for chickfila and this morning I really wanted a bacon egg taquito from Whataburger. Sad day.

Food cravings? 

See above.

Movement?

They are still really soft. I keep reading about how the kicks get stronger and harsher towards the end so I guess I'll soak up this time now. 

 

Belly Button in or out?

My belly button looks gross, end of story.

Anything make you queasy or sick? 

This week was good no nausea!

 

Looking forward to?

Figuring out when I can go to Texas to see my family for my Texas baby shower! Oh and of course get some Chickfila!

 

Sleep?

Its still going well.  I flip around a lot but I did that before I was pregnant.

 

Gender Prediction:

No more predicting we have a BOY!!!! 

 

Symptoms:

Adam and I have been going on like 2-3 mile long walks recently so my round ligament pain starts acting up a little ways through which isn't fun.  Also my lower back is starting to hurt more often.

 

Happy/Moody:

Still pretty anxious and pretty stressed out but hey that's normal right?!...right?
