Week 25 update

Admittedly, I'm waaaayyyy behind in posting my weekly updates. But I've kept notes on each week and am forced myself to catch up on my posts this weekend, so here comes the avalanche of update posts!

Baby is the size of an eggplant.

How far along? 25 weeks.

Total weight gain/loss: Up about 5-6 pounds. Whatever, scale.

Maternity clothes? Bah. Bah, bah, bah.

Best moment this week: Being busy at work helped keep my mind off the fact that a close friend was moving away.


Symptoms: Nothing huge - I'll take "boring," thank you!

Movement: Getting stronger and more frequent. With the weather getting hotter, my post-work walks are going to be less frequent, which is sad.

Food cravings: Nothing in particular.

Aversions: Nothing new or awful.


Gender? IT'S A BOY!

Sleep: The only problem with sleep is that I can't get enough!

What I miss: Working less than 50-hour weeks. Work has been insane, and I can't keep up with this pace much longer.

What I am looking forward to: Our vacation in two weeks and some time off work.

Weekly Wisdom: Pregnancy hormones don't help when you're saying goodbye to a friend.

Milestones: Nearing the end of the second trimester ...
