How far? Week 22
What's baby up to? Our little Ava Kate is about 11 inches long and weighs about 1 whole pound! She is about the size of a spaghetti squash!! She is beginning to look like a little newborn and is becoming more and more active! :)
Weight gain? Despite my hefty appetite and need for all things food, I've only put on 3 lbs. the entire pregnancy. My midwife assured me that it's totally fine and I'm doing great. Guess I'll keep on eating! :) It sure feels/looks like more than 3 lbs to me!
Maternity clothes? That would be a big fat yes. Thanks to my friends Victoria & Christie, I am pretty well stocked now! It's like having a whole new wardrobe to choose from! :)
Symptoms? I've had some issues with round ligament and back pain, but overall, things are really good.
Sleep? Good!
Food cravings? Everything. I'm constantly hungry.
Food aversions? Definitely not... haha
Miss anything? A long hot bath.
I'm feeling... extremely blessed and happy!
Best moment of the week? Taking Ava Kate to her first Carolina-Duke game. I think she loved it because she moved like crazy the entire time... and Carolina won thanks to our little lucky charm. We got to hear her heart beat at the appointment on Monday and everything checked out fine. Our next appointment is March 17 and then 2 weeks after that I go for my glucose test.
Looking forward to... working on our "to-do-before-Ava-Kate-arrives" list... AND getting to snuggle our sweet little girl! Also, my sweet friend Kelly's due tomorrow with Ava Kate's first boy friend, Zac! Can't wait to meet him! :)
