25 and 26 week update!




How far along? 26 weeks and 2 days
How big is baby?


What is baby doing this week? Babyzone.com says "This week your baby-to-be opens his eyes for the first time. She'll open and shut his eyes as he gets used to his new ability. Your little one is still on the small side. His body may look fully formed on the outside, but inside there's fine-tuning taking place, including his lungs and brain. Your unborn baby still has some growing to do!"


What is going on in mama? Pregnancy induced Allergies are still here, but very mild now.  Local honey and QB Complex work wonders. 

Symptoms:  If I sit for a while my butt and back start to hurt, but other than that nothing big, but I get adjusted every other day and that is so helpful!!

Total weight gain: A lot!

Exercise: I take Ava and Pekka on 2 mile walk/jogs about 3-4 days a week.

Maternity clothes: There are clothes that aren't maternity???

Sleep: Pretty good for the last week actually.

Best moment last week? 

Movement: Oh yes!

Cravings:   Eating clean, healthy, natural foods.

Belly Button in or out: Still in there, but barely!

What I miss? Having a body that can do whatever I want.  Things are starting to get harder and harder. Like shaving standing up!


What I am looking forward to: Not hearing from the glucose test. No news is good news.

Milestones: Last week in 2rd tri.

How is daddy and Ava? So sweet.  They tell Brody about their day each night before we go to sleep.
