25 and 26 weeks

How far along: 26 Weeks.

How big is baby: Some people say an Eggplant some people say some root veggies…. Use your imagination.

Total weight gain: 20+ lbs…..

Sleep:  I don’t understand this word??? Let’s see…since I wasn’t able to post last week, I have gotten a stomach bug and baby girl grew a gazillion lbs overnight SO between those two things I’ve gotten minimal hours of sleep. If you could see the way I have my side of the bed setup in order to minimize hip pain, waking up with acid in my mouth, and easier turning radius, you’d probably laugh. I’m basically sitting upright with two pillows against my headboard. It’s the only way I’ve found I can sleep for more than 10 minutes at a time.

This is my sad picture of how big my belly is. Ryan took me hunting and obviously I no longer fit into my overalls haha

Best moment of the week: I guess this should actually say best moments of the last 2 weeks.  Thanksgiving was very nice, we had immediate family over and I baked entirely way too much haha. I may or may not have overdid it. I got some good deals online for Christmas gifts. Like I said before baby Lundberg has grown huge in the last couple weeks and my stomach has stretched tremendously, any moves she makes aren’t feeling very cute anymore. Worst moment of the week would have to be getting the stomach flu and having to get a couple IV bags to re-hydrate. Last night the kids got to get all dolled up for their Christmas program and they looked SO handsome/beautiful!!!

Food Cravings:  Well once I actually had an appetite  I craved French fries of all things…. Weird.

Food Aversions: All things this week. I wanted nothing to do with food.

Symptoms: Random back aches, ligament stretching, stomach itches to no avail, any movement feels like she’s trying to burst out (alien style) and acid reflux at night.  

Mood: I’ve been pretty ok. Tired….I guess. Is tired a mood? Sleepy?  

Movement: Well she has officially discovered what feels like every single one of my organs. She moves most of the day, takes a cat nap and then runs a marathon in my uterus.   

What I’m looking forward to: Christmas! We are hopefully decorating this weekend and getting our tree next weekend. We are also getting close to single digit weeks left!!! 12 weeks!!!!
