22 Weeks

Week 22 – Nov 19 – Nov 25

Baby is the size of – Length of a spaghetti squash!  Whatever that means!  He’ s about 1 lb.

How I’m feeling – This week was crazy with traveling to Mom’s on Wednesday and getting back late Saturday night.  I figured out it is NOT easy to sleep anywhere and was up a few nights at 2:30 without falling back asleep.  I pushed it to the limits on Friday going Black Friday shopping and thinking I would get some sympathy for being pregnant.  I only milked it once and had a little girl get me a jacket at Old Navy so I didn’t have to get out of line.  That was nice. 

We also finally got to see my cousins who are both due in March.  Kate is due with her 4th baby, a girl, on March 9^th and Emily is due with her first, a girl, on March 27^th.  I sandwiched right in there at March 23^rd.  It was neat to see how different we all look and how we’re carrying.  We did not get a group picture but hopefully will at Christmas. 

I think I’m feeling him a lot these days.  I feel many bumps and movements while sitting around.  And a lot at night when I haven’t eaten much so I’m thinking it’s him and not food digesting.
