26 Weeks


What's up with Baby this week? 
26 Weeks.


Our little man is weighing in at 2 pounds
and about 14 inches long.

At long last your little swimmer can see!
 For the first time ever, your wee babe's eyelids have finally opened (remember: they were fused shut previously) and they’re probably having their first moments of sight as you read this (or maybe it already happened while you were brushing your teeth or browsing the internet or something). In addition to taking in their first visual impressions of their comfy amniotic-filled studio, your little human-bean recently acquired the ability to move their head around. That's right, if your child were clever enough (which they're not - yet), they could engage in that most basic of non-verbal communication - the head shake/nod.

 Not to mention, gawking! In further anti-alien developments: your little super star’s head hair is starting to grow in! Who knows, maybe a cute little cowlick or two is springing into position right now - the first of years of cute-but-stubborn bed-head. Your wee piggy's toenails have recently grown in and they're still slowly piling up fat beneath their still-loose-n-wrinkly skin. Most importantly, their brain tissue and neurons are all developing at a rapid pace, increasing their (genius-level?) brain activity, which will continue to function at accelerated levels for the first eight years of childhood!





Symptoms?  BACK PAIN.. its the worst i tell you.
Heart Burn is getting worst. YUCKY

Gender? Handsome little boy!



Excited For? Christmas!!! This is going to be our last Christmas as a family of three! This time next year this little man will be 9 months and i know he will be having a blast!! Im pretty excited for new years also, not for the partying but it just means we are getting closer to meeting this little guy..


Maternity Clothes? OH YES. I think i would die without these.

Sleep? Its been just OKAY.. I have noticed that my hips really start hurting so im having to move a lot at nightIm also having to pee more. So im up at least twice during the night.



Movement? He loves to me for mom but he wont move for anyone else! I think he is just wanting to save all the movement for when he is here. I love watching my belly move like crazy! But sometimes i dislike it cause this little guy loves to kick mom in her ribs..



Belly Button Status? Half way in and half way out. Some days it wants to be a outie and other days it will stay in.

Missing Anything? Seeing my feet. :)
Getting up with no help
Not losing my breath


Milestones? 
Making it to 26 weeks.
14 Weeks to go. OR LESS.
Connors 6th birthday! I cant believe i have a little 6 year old!

Cravings? WINE, Now that its the Holiday i have been around a lot of wine and im really wanting some!! Other then that i dont have any other cravings

Weight Gain? 13 Pounds


I also had to go and do my glucose test.. Lets just say it was so gross..
After waiting for the hour and taking my blood, I thought it would be a good idea to go and get something to eat with Connor.
As i was driving i starting getting really light headed, dizzy, i was sweating, I was losing my eye sight and just not feeling right. I was at a stop light and had to call Logan to see if there was anyway he would be able to come and drive me home. Lucky he was working close to were i was and he headed over. I dont remember parking the car or going to get food, but i somehow made it there. Once i got some food into me i felt a little better. But not 100%. I was so glad that Logan was close and able to come and help me. I was freaking out and poor Connor was so worried about me.
