25 and 26 week update

How far along:
25 and 26 weeks

Baby is the size of a:

Zucchini(25) weeks and now Eggplant/Aubergine(26 weeks), these veggies are getting confusing as every app seems to have a different one each week.

She's 35cm long now! Crazy!

Total weight gain:

A total of 9lbs now, the weight gain needs to slow down again please!

 

(25 weeks)

(26 weeks)

 

 

Maternity Clothes?

Nothing new

Stretch Marks?

None caused by pregnancy ;-)

Sleep?

Pretty good, though I could do with a bit more of it.

Last night I woke up every couple of hours for no reason whatsoever

Best moment of the Week:

I'm still amazed when I can see movements from the outside.
Also receiving the most stunning rainbow coloured muslin cloths and my carters.com order in the post. Due to a damage to the packaging I ended up getting a full refund($40!) on the muslin cloths, so that was even better :)

 

Movement:

Lots, she seems to be most active around 11pm/midnight and late mornings

Food Cravings:

Salt & Vinegar crisps(potato chips)

Belly Button in or out:

In.

Gender:

Girl, I'd like to book another scan to confirm though as I don't get anymore free ones at the hospital now

Symptoms:

*Ugly varicose veins

*Bad back pains, as you can see in my pictures above, I have terrible posture.

*Nose bleeds, well not proper nose bleeds, but for about a week I had a really runny nose and it was bloody every time I blew it.
*My tummy is also getting hard from time to time.

Anything Making you queasy or Sick?

Nothing really

Have you Started to Show yet?

I think strangers still just think I'm fat, which is why every morning on the bus the men push past me to get to the seats.

What I miss:

Not seeing enough of my partner

 

 

What I'm looking forward to:

My girlfriend's sister is in labour right now! So I'm looking forward to some baby cuddles. 

What I'm not looking forward to:

The uncomfortableness of the third trimester, I'm really nervous about it!
