23 weeks!

Wow, it's been a while since I've done one of these...mainly because I felt like nothing was really changing, and I just kept giving the same answers over and over.  BOR-ing.  So, I figured it was about that time.  I can't believe I'm 23 weeks already.  I know, I say this every time, but, where has the time gone?!  Before we know it, it's going to be Christmas!  I cannot wait!

Anyways, on to the survey...

•  How far along?  23 weeks and 2 days

• Total weight gain:  Hmmm, at my last appointment I was up 5 lbs total.  But, seeing as how I've been craving candy and pumpkin donuts like it's my JOB, I'm thinking I'm probably up at least 10 lbs by now!  Ha!  I guess I'll find out next week at my monthly appointment.  

• Maternity clothes?  Oh yes...all pants, definitely.  I still have some pre-preg long shirts/sweaters that I can wear, but I've been getting more maternity shirts.  They're just more comfortable.  I'm alllll about comfort these days!  ;)

• Stretch marks?  Nothing that I've seen, thankfully!  But, I did notice some purple-ish spots on my boobs the other day.  Hopefully those aren't the start of any...eeeek!

• Sleep:  Eh, it's been OK.  I usually always sleep through the night fine, but, lately I've been waking up a lot more uncomfortable, and my neck/back have been really sore, too.  No fun.

• Best moment this week?  This little lady has been quite the mover lately, and the other night I was laying on my back just watching my belly pop up all over the place.  It was so neat!  I love watching her move around.

• Movement?  All the time!  LOVE it.

• Food cravings?  Mmmm, like I said earlier....pumpkin donuts from Dunkin, and candy.  Yum!

• Labor signs?  No, thank you!

• Belly button:  It's getting more and more shallow...it's so weird.  I've never seen the inside of my belly button...it's usually so deep!  lol  I have the feeling I'm not going to make it the whole 9 months without it popping out, though.  That's going to look hot.  :P

• What I miss?  Lately it's been pumpkin beer and wine.  Work has been really long and stressful, and I loved coming home after a long day and relaxing on the couch with a glass of wine.  Soon enough, though...it's worth it!  :)

• What I'm looking forward to:  V-day next week!  I can't believe I'm at that point already.  Craziness.  And, I can't wait to go pumpkin picking with Hubs this week!  We're a little late this year (we go every year), but, I'm looking forward to taking cute pictures of us as a family of 2, with a bump this year.  Next year we'll have our lil' punkin with us!  Awww.

• Milestones?  Only a few more weeks until 3rd trimester!  Wow!

I hope everyone's having a great weekend!  Hopefully this week goes by quickly!
