Mid-pregnancy Funk.

I don't know if the mid-pregnancy funk is a real thing, but I sure have been feeling it. Ever since my loss EDD passed I have been feeling blue. I just feel sad... I am not at the same point in my life as many of my friends. I go weeks without talking to them now and when I do talk to them it feels so forced. I am going to talk to my doctor about this next week. I know my hormones are all wacky, but I don't like feeling this way and I don't want it to get worse after little man comes.

On a good note, Jason and I have been super busy working on his room. Jason painted last week. We registered and picked up the furniture on Saturday. It is all set up now and looks amazing. I can't wait to see it with all the western cowboy stuff in there.

Here is a little preview.

Next up I need to find curtains. I am on the hunt for denim or chambray. I am also going to ask my grandma to make the crib skirt out of bandana print material because I can't find one I really like.

And here is my weekly update even though I have missed a few weeks!

How far along? 25 weeks!

Total weight gain: At my last appointment I was up 5lbs, but since we don't own scales I am not sure since then.

Maternity clothes? I have been in maternity pants forever now. I can still wear my own shirts, but they are starting to get short.

Stretch marks? No new ones.

Sleep: Sleep is starting to get spotty. I have a hard time getting comfortable. I toss and turn something awful and according to poor Jason I snore like a freight train.

Best moment this week: I got my first stranger comment yesterday! A client said I didn't know you were pregnant. I laughed and said I was and that I was due in June. When she left I told my coworker I should have been like, "I didn't know I was either!"

Miss Anything? No, not at all.

Movement: Yes! Lots of movement now.

Food cravings: Skittles! And a new craving is chocolate milk! Love it.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Now I have horrible heartburn. All my normal things aren't working anymore. I need to ask the doctor what I can take.

Sex of the baby: Baby Boy!

Labor Signs: None. 

Symptoms: Growing belly, movement!

Belly Button in or out? In.

Wedding rings on or off? Still on.

Happy or Moody?  Moody unfortunately. My hormones have been wacky lately.

Looking forward to: Next up is doing a few things for the nursery that I want to do myself and can't register for. My shower is the end of April so that will be nice! 

And a picture! This is from last week at 24 weeks. I haven't taken one for 25 weeks yet.

22 weeks and an appointment!

Today I had my monthly appointment with the OB. It went really well. We got all the results back from the blood work I had the beginning of the week. Everything looks great. My blood pressure is low which is normal for this stage in the game. And I have now gained 5 lbs.

The only bad thing going on right now is my loss EDD is coming up Monday. I'm really not sure how I feel. I am sad because I should either have a baby in my arms or be very close to that point, but I am excited for our baby boy coming in June. Part of the problem is that I know no one will remember what the date is... It is just like that baby never existed. Not to anyone but me. I have to go to work and put a smile on all day. *sigh* I guess I just need to look on the bright side of things and focus on my baby boy!

How far along? 22 weeks!

Total weight gain: I am now up 5 lbs.

Maternity clothes? I have been in maternity pants forever now. I can still wear my own shirts, but they are starting to get short.

Miss Anything? No, not at all.

Movement: Yes! Lots of movement now.

Food cravings: Skittles! And a milk shake at the moment. Too bad I don't crave healthy things...

Anything making you queasy or sick: No, I have been feeling great!

Sex of the baby: Baby Boy!

Labor Signs: None. 

Symptoms: Growing belly, movement!

Belly Button in or out? In.

Looking forward to: Now that we know we are having a baby boy, I am looking forward to registering and having my showers. Getting the nursery ready! So much to look forward to!
