week 23 update!

How far along? 23 weeks 2 days!

Baby’s size? An ear of corn
(8.5 inches//1.5 lbs)! :) 


Total Weight Gain: 9 pounds

Sleep: Sleeping through the night, can't sleep on my tummy anymore & I like to sleep with a pillow in between my legs! 

Best moment this week: Receiving new baby clothes & spray painting decorations for baby room! Also got an email from MIKAROSE (bridal dress company) wanting me to review one of their pregnancy dresses? (coming to the blog soooooon!)

Miss Anything? Miss running a lot, & i miss sushi when I'm craving it!

Movement: YES!!!  I'm pretty sure she thinks my bladder is a punching bag. 

Food cravings:Hmm...sushi sometimes, bread (but thats always). Used to be junior bacons, but not so much anymore. I drink a lot of milk and cereal if that means anything?!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Gender: Girl!
Labor Signs: No thank goodness!
Symptoms: Not really any! I'm hungrier than normal, but can't tell if that's just the fat girl inside my head?! 
Belly Button in or out? In, but its starting to look silly. 
Wedding rings on or off? Still on, but feels tight at night sometimes?
Looking forward to: Just getting back to a normal routine (or at least trying to figure out the new normal). 
Workouts: I'm still getting about 3-5 workouts in a week.  I even got a little bit of running in.  It's amazing what just 10 min of running on a treadmill can do for your sanity.  I love lifting right now for  a number of reasons. I love the looks I get in the weight section of the gym (mostly from the older generation who think i'm crazy) and I'd like to think/hope that I'm putting on some muscle right now too which would make getting back to my post baby body a little easier.

You look great.
PS: isn't it a killer going without sushi for 9 months. It's all worth it in the end though :) I made sushi my push present, that way I knew I would have it shortly after having Nayla
