How far along- 23 weeks
How big is baby- 1 pound and 2 ouncesTotal weigh gain- about 10 pounds
Maternity clothes- yes, definitely.
Sleep- beginning to become a literal pain to get out of bed in the mornings and I know it's only going to get worse.
Best moment this week- Josh and I went to Akron Children's Fetal Medicine Center to double check on little boy's brain and make sure everything is how it should be. And it is! False alarm and he is completely healthy!
Movement- He is always jumping around!
Cravings- sausage and grapes
Gender- boy!
Symptoms- pelvic pain, varicose veins, baby brain, sciatic nerve pain, acid reflux. Also found out I currently have placenta previa, which means the placenta is blocking my cervix. There is a 90% chance that it will move (so I won't need a C-section), but until it does, I've been put on restrictions.
Belly button- far out
What I miss- energy drinks
Looking forward to- moving Oliver in with Penelope so I can start on the nursery.
Upcoming appointments/events- Glucose screening and checkup on 1/21, and ultrasound to check on placenta position on 1/24. I'm happy to have a long break between appointments for a while!
