Weekly Updates:

How far along: 23 weeks

Baby’s size: Mango – Your baby weighs about as much as a large mango — just over a pound. (Length: more than 11 inches) – Granted our baby is weighing in on the slightly bigger and longer as per our u/s last week.

Sleep: It’s been consistent this week which is nice.

Maternity Clothes: Yep. Loving the stretchy pants!

Food Cravings: I have been smelling cake batter everywhere I go. I don’t want the cake, just the batter. I’m working on trying to avoid eating a bunch of sweets though.

Food Aversions: Still no spicy. 🙁

Symptoms I have: My acne has finally started to go away and the heartburn is only occasional.

Doctor’s Appointment: OB on 2/12

Movement: I am starting to feel Sprout a lot more than before. There are kicks and jabs. Baby particularly likes my back.

Belly Button: Innie. But it is definitely starting to move to a more level position.

Gender: Team Yellow!

What I’m looking forward to: Next Tuesday when we reach the Viability milestone. Then after that, our next milestone is 30 weeks. *sigh* takes too damn long.

What I miss: Nada!

* Funny side story – Darrell was talking to people after our ultrasound last week and was telling them it was our 28 week ultrasound when it was our 22 week ultrasound. I felt so bad having to tell him that he was 6 weeks ahead and thus still had 18 weeks to go instead of the 12 he was thinking about. Poor D!
