23 weeks



23 Weeks
Total weight gain: +17 lbs (that is 5.5lbs in 3 weeks -  all those desserts while at my parents added up!)

Size of baby: Baby H is the size of an Grapefruit

Gender: Going to have to wait until December!!

Movement: Love feeling the movement - this baby is all over the place.  Reese got to feel the baby move this week.  All it takes is a little sugar and this baby starts moving!

Sleep:  Taking lots more naps and getting about 9 hours of sleep each night and I am still sleeping with a regular size pillow on my side.  

What I miss:  Not Much - but it would have been nice to sit on my parents porch with a glass of wine!

Cravings: Still loving any fruit that is cold (watermelon, blueberries, etc.), made Chicken Pad Thai and it totally satisfied the craving!  Also anything sweet - all the TIME!

Clothes: Feeling very comfortable in maternity clothes - all seem to fit now - nothing is to big anymore.  

Symptoms:  Still having the low pressure and have to go back in for a repeat ultrasound to look at Baby H #2's kidneys again.  Trying not to worry all they said was that the pictures were sub-optimal and they just need new pictures.  Say some prayers all is well!

Best moment this week:  The smile on Reese's face when he felt the baby kick:)
