26+weeks!

I'm 26 weeks pregnant! Wahooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is seriously flying by! I haven't done an update in a bit since I felt that things were kinda the same for a while but let me catch you up!

Week 24, Week 25 & Week 26

Symptoms:
The number one symptom I have right now is super itchy skin! I oil myself up, put body butter, creams and lotions and nothing stops the darn itching! It's aggravating and extremely uncomfortable but I found that cold showers help ... for a bit. Oh and Leg cramps, I've gotten a couple in the middle of the night, it's very painful. But I just stretch it out and it goes away. Also I hear Bananas do the trick.

Cravings: Donuts. But David won't let me. He says they're too sugary. He's right but dang! ha .I still miss my cup of wine and a margarita but it'll be a while before I can indulge on those! Oh and Chocolate! I love chocolate right now!

Stretch Marks: Yes but still the same ones, on the boobs and a couple on  the sides of my hips. See photo above, that's all for now! =)

Belly Button: It's weird! It's an innie but starting to become an outie, let's call it an Audi. ;)

It's come a long way.

Wedding rings on/off? Still on but slightly uncomfortable at times. My fingers swell when it's hot out so it can be uncomfortable but it's starting to cool down over here so I've been wearing them.


Maternity Clothes? Oh yes! Love my stretchy pants! Thank God for those! ha and I'm starting to use maternity tops as well. Besides that , I just borrow David's tee shirts and plaid button ups.

Boy or Girl? It's a boy! Our sweet little Noah!

Movement? Oh so very Much! I can feel him tumbling in there and his kicks are hard now! I love it! If we didn't have TV, I'd be just as happy with just staring at my belly. It's so entertaining! Also I felt him tickling me yesterday as if he was moving his little fingers against my belly! It's so cute!

Noah can now hear both David and mine's voices while we talk with one another. He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid which helps him with his developing lungs. Noah weighs about 2 lbs and is about 14ish inches long!

I can't wait! In just a week and a half I'll begin the 3rd and final trimester than Bang! He'll be here! Eek!!!!
