23 weeks 2 days....

Over half way! I enjoy saying that....even if its just BARELY over half way! Today was my 23 week doctors appointment, and so far things are good! I have gained about 16 pounds, which is WAY less than I did with Aiden!! I wish that I would have been better about taking photos with my first pregnancy, because apparently, I was a whale!! I measure about 3cm smaller than I should at 23 weeks, but the doctor says that that is nothing to be worried about right now. The babies heart beat is nice and strong at 148 bpm, and she is an active little thing! During the day she is pretty quiet...not a ton of movement, but as soon as I lay down for the night....she is WIDE awake and wiggling all over!! I love it when she is active, although a little bit of a change in "active" times would be appreciated!


I am feeling good, which is nice to be able to say! For a while there I didn't think I would ever feel human again! I am still refusing to wear maternity pants, so my pants just keep getting a larger elastic band on the button! We will see just how much longer I can get away with that!
