How far along: 26 weeks
Total Weight Gain: scale at home fluctuating between 5-6 pounds. i'm on serious SMP (stretch mark patrol). i know i'm going to get them (i get a few from puberty & my mother has them) well on easter sunday i went to the restroom and thought i found my first one....and cried. yes. cried. hello hormones. turns out it wasn't one but i mean really! crying?!
Maternity Clothes: i finally bit the bullet and placed an order with old navy maternity earlier this week, 2 bottoms and a top. i didn't really need the top (most of mine still fit) but it was really cute and i know i'll need it eventually. also, i bought a really cute dress at gap earlier this week and just sized up to fit my belly.
Movement: moving around lots!
Sleep: about the same
Symptoms: nothing much to speak of
Cravings: anything COLD. its getting REALLY warm here and in the afternoon i love eating cold things (fruits, frozen yogurt, etc.) i've also been having a craving (this is weird) for a bologna sandwich i used to have when i was growing up. you know- the slice of bologna, kraft cheese (the kind that comes in plastic and tastes like plastic lol) and MAYO. I LOVE MAYO. all on white bread. so so weird i'm craving them i haven't had one in probably 15 years.
Emotions: still dealing with d's departure. blah. i did get to Skype with him for the first time yesterday which was really really really nice.
Best Moment of the Week: last night i went to a kickboxing class with some friends and had a GREAT time. it was nice to be able to break a sweat (of course i didn't overdue it and took the class at half speed) but i look forward to going back.

Good for you for still working out! I'm telling you, you need to get Just Dance to do with your girlfriends! Oh Ps. You're adorable & don't worry about the stretch marks! Just lather on the cocoa butter!
ReplyDeleteLook at that gorgeous BELLY!!! GIrl don't you worry your pretty little head about stretch marks. Some of us *ahem* literally get a stretch mark every time we move. You'll be JUST fine and I'm sure you won't get a single one! And I *HEAR* you on the bologna sandwiches!!! I'm not even pregnant and I've been CRAVING one! :) You look soooo prettyyyy!!! EEK!!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh.....i totally had this EXACT craving in my 1st tri: "the slice of bologna, kraft cheese (the kind that comes in plastic and tastes like plastic lol) and MAYO. I LOVE MAYO. all on white bread".
ReplyDeletei seriously could not believe it! i hadn't had one of those since i was like 5. i caved and bought all the stuff. scarfed a sandwich and that was the end of my craving.... ha!
man! i hope i look as good as you when i'm preggers! so excited for you lady.
ReplyDeleteI will cry if I find a stretch mark too. I have some things that look like they *might* turn into one, but I can't really tell yet...I also bought some Mederma so I can start using it right away if I see one!
