Okay- first I have a question. Am I doing these wrong? So today (1/6/12) I turned 27 weeks so I am dong my 26 week update since I am finished with the week and can tell you my cravings, weight gain, etc. I don't see how I can write about my 26th week the day I turn 26 weeks. Is this wrong? I am sure there is probably no right or wrong way but it bothers me.
Week 26
12-30-11
12-30-11
Size of baby: an English hothouse cucumber (14 inches & weighs apx 1 2/3 pounds)
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Well last night I was only +2. Kinda worries me- just the baby himself is supposed to weigh 2 pounds. I don't think I'm eating enough. I told Justin today that I don't think I eat enough for a regular person let alone a preggers one. Got to get better.
Maternity Clothes: completely. other than around the house sweats & pj's. My mom brought up my cousins clothes and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them all. They are all super cute and she had one of her girls in February so a ton of the clothes are perfect for me right now. (as in sweaters, long sleeve, winter clothes) and she worked at a bank so it is nice dress clothes. I am so thankful she is letting me borrow them! They fit perfect!!
Gender:
Movement: Still loving feeling him squirm. This week I was reading about how his ears are developing so I would play lullabies on my phone and put it next to my stomach and he would kick away. So then I decided to play some Tao Cruiz for the baby and dance around a little then put my phone on my stomach. Well when I sat down the phone it almost fell off because he was kicking so much. Then he slowed down and only moved the phone a little but it was crazy! I loved it. We will be listening to baby mozart every night from now on.
Sleep: miserable. miserable. miserable. I have had a terrible head cold this week so sleeping would have been a pain not pregnant but then add on being pregnant, having a 3.5 year old dog who suddenly has reverted back to puppy whining all night and you have one uncomfortable fat mama losing too much sleep.
What I miss: nothing this week. (other than being able to breathe but that's not preggers related)
Cravings: still no real cravings other than crushed ice & fruit
Symptoms: constant backache, some pimples, difficulty breathing if don't sit straight up, peeing more than ever
Big News this week: Not only are your ears getting more developed but they say that week 26 you start opening and closing your eyes. Justin and I are going to try the flashlight trick and see if we can make you move. : ) Well I have been sick and on antibiotic. Thank Jesus there are still some antibiotics you can take pregnant. Thankfully I have had this week off and school doesn't start back till Monday so I have had time to rest.
Here is Week 26:

Like you said, I don't think there's a right or wrong way.
I do my updates when I TURN that week (so today I should have done my 16 week one.. but will do it tomorrow). I do my cravings, etc. based on how I feel that day and how it's been in the past week.. that's just how I decided anyways. :)
Love that outfit this week! That is such a cute top!
