23 weeks pregnant

How far along? 23 Weeks!!!!! Wow I feel like I'm really far its kind of scary. I feel like shes going to be here earlier then I would like and I'm not even close to ready (baby stuff wise).


Total weight gain/measurements? 8lbs that I know of; Weight gain update at my next appointment. Yes I've been bad with appointments to be honest I've been very stressed and not wanting to do anything but I know my doctors will want to see me next week or the week after...

 Maternity clothes? Nothing new. I will probably buy more stuff in a month.

 Stretch marks? Been using bio-oil, its keep my skin silky smooth :) It's getting low and I don't think its working like yes it absorbs nicely but my stretchmarks are all very noticeable still.

 Sleep? A couple nights ago it was horrible Devon kept moving and it kept me up all night. We have a small bed so it makes it difficult to stretch out which I've been finding most comfortable.

 Best moment this week? Christmas morning! My son was so excited to open up all of gifts it was adorable :) I ate soooo much so that was nice too! lol

 Miss anything? This week I've been doing well pregnancy wise but in the past couple days reality has hit that I have a high risk pregnancy and there's a good chance I can have my little angel early. It makes me want to cry because I love her so much but I know if I go into early labor  before 32 weeks I will get sent hours away and be forced to stay there until my risk has dropped. It will be a horrible situation to be away from my son the thought if of it is unbearable I've never been away from him for more then 9hrs. I remember being at the hospital and being so lonely and feeling like I was in prison, just remembering it all makes me cry. It was bad enough being far from my family but to be away from my son would be hell and I know I should prep for such a situation but mentally I can't. I can't even bear to think about having Julianna early because of my body just not allowing me to, its scary how you really can be your worst nightmare.

 Movement? Still a lot, I love it :)

 Food cravings? This week I really haven't had any craving but I'll list some food that I found extra yummy! Tortia pizza, Cheese bread from crustys, Ham, Brown sugar coated pecans,Orange chocolate, Turkey potato and Bacon soup, Clementines.

 Anything making you queasy or sick? Feeling good the past week

 Gender? Girl :)

 Labor signs? Nope...

 Symptoms? 
Pregnancy Rash/Sensitive Skin
Shortness of breath all the time
Urge to urinate more frequently
Migraines! Been getting the damn things for  couple of months now
Holding water weight
Hair is less manageable from the increase of it
Acne (It's been an ongoing thing)
Tummy cramps
Constipation
Sex drive is down (been that way for most of this pregnancy)

 Belly button in or out? In! Was in with my last pregnancy, my baby bump was quite small.

 Happy or moody most of the time? Both

 Looking forward to? Hopefully buying more maternity and baby stuff in a couple weeks.


I used the questions from Anna Saccones pregnancy update post.
