Week 22 - 23 Update
I have a lot of catching up to do on here! Time has been flying and not much has been changing between weeks so I made an executive decision to skip a week ;)
Now let's get up to speed. So you can see I am not exaggerating with how quickly Princess T is growing, I have posted photos for the past few weeks. Please excuse where the photos were taken as this is where our full length mirror is located.
Seeing the belly is UNREAL!!! I know I am pregnant, but actually paying attention to it is somewhat foreign to me.
Gender: Baby Girl!!!!
Weight gain: 7-8 lbs - I have been eating larger meals but the slow digestion kicks my bumm.
Not a huge difference in weight gain but princess keeps growing.
My mother has called her 'matakaw'...which means greedy in tagalog because she is hogging all of the food. I told her our daughter must get that from Daddy.

Maternity clothes: Not yet. Dresses have been my go to outfit.
Within the past week I did purchase a BeBand so I can get more wear out of my pants. Maternity clothing is overpriced! I'd rather get something name brand ;)

Stretch marks: No - and going through my whipped Argan oil like it's the end of the world
Belly button in or out: Its confused right now. My belly button wants to be flat/stick out but can't make up it's mind.
Sleep: Pretty well. I just fall asleep on the couch mainly because I can lean against the backing.
Best moment this week: Feeling her kick even during meetings at work. It is pretty awesome stuff. And getting the BeBand.

Worst moment this week: Can't say I had one. I stand corrected...watching a birthing video on my BabyCenter app. No offense, but I do not understand how men willingly want to be in the delivery room. I commend you!
Miss anything: Same as the previous week... Stamina. I just want to go, go, go but my body says 'slow slow slow' Booooo!
Movement: Yes. I cannot wait to experience her respond to music and Drew's voice because now she should be able to distinguish between different sounds.
Cravings: Water. Apparently not drinking enough. Apples and hot dogs. Not at the same time though, that would be weird.
Queasy or sick: No. Praise the LORD!
Looking forward to: Everything! Seeing her run around our Christmas tree this time next year. Examining her little face after she is born and seeing her smile while she's dreaming.
Well that's it folks for Maternity updates!
I like photos, so here are more from week 23, enjoy :)
These are from the evening of my office's Christmas party
Daddy not helping me with having his photo taken ;)
I don't think this would be an 'approved' pic...
