I cannot believe I have let myself get behind again with my bump updates! Just when I'd caught up with myself, another week flies by! As I write this I'm 21 weeks + 5. We were super excited to find out last week that our 2nd baby is a little boy. We loved telling LO that he is going to have a little brother.
How far along? 21 week + 5
Total weight gain: 9 stone 1 (gained 1 lb over the past week and 11lbs in total.
Maternity clothes? I have been browsing Pinterest for some much needed maternity style inspiration, especially for our upcoming holiday. I'm at that difficult stage bump wise where normal clothes still fit me, but I won't get much use out of them for many more weeks.
Stretch marks? I thought I'd noticed a few around my belly, but these are actually old ones from the first time which faded.
Sleep: I nap when I can during the week, although this is proving difficult as I am not getting anything done. I really hate sleeping pm my side as I wake up with achey hips and a dead arm.
Best moment this week: Feeling more strong movements and thinking about baby boy names.
Miss anything? I really miss having a glass of red wine in the evening
Food cravings: Not really anything new
Anything making you queasy or sick? The dizzy, hot feeling I get in the morning makes me feel incredibly sick :(
Gender: BOY
Labour signs: No!
Symptoms: Round ligament pain if I don't rest or go on a walk
Belly button in or out? Out.
Wedding rings on or off: On.
Happy or moody most of the time: Moody when I've been tired or had a grumpy toddler
Looking forward to: Going on a nice relaxing holiday with my two big boys and bump

Aw, congrats on it being another boy. When I see pregnancy updates, I always wish I'd discovered blogging at that stage because i've nothing recorded of that stage. #sharewithme
ReplyDeleteThank you Emma :) Yes I didn't document much with my first, I took photos and stuff, but I am really glad I am documenting it all this time! x
ReplyDeleteCongrats on it being a little boy. Sure his brother is super excited. It's lovely reading these updates. Definitely something I would want to try should I get blessed with another baby.
ReplyDeleteIt is lots of fun and really interesting to document the weekly changes (I don't enjoy documenting my ever increasing weight gain so much but at least I know where I started and can aim for that again one day!) Thank you!! x
DeleteSo exciting and I think it becomes so much more real when you know what you are having. Your bump is just gorgeous! xx
ReplyDeleteAww thank you so much Katie. I think the bump is getting pretty massive now- I can't believe I'm this big already with just under half way to go eek!! x
DeleteOh my goodness you look amazing hunny. I know I say it on all your updates but makes me so broody reading these. lol I love it. It becomes so much more real when you pass the middle mark doesn't it? So happy for you. Thank you for linking up to Share With Me #sharewithme
