Sleep: The Snoogle is my jam.
Best moment of this week: Halfway there!!!! Can't believe we've finally reached the halfway mark! 20 down, 20 to go!
Miss anything: Not really this week.
Food cravings: Still the really healthy stuff - sweets, waffles, fries...
Anything making you queasy or sick: Leftovers and casseroles.
Symptoms: My stomach gets sore easily - all that stretching and growing! Hm, I got sick again last week (yay!), but it came and went pretty quick. I also almost passed out at Dillard's on Sunday, which was super embarrassing. Especially when I had to sit on the floor and my friend had to ask them for a bottle of water. Good news - I called the doctor and they said it's totally normal (unless it's happening daily). My body is digesting food differently and I just need to make sure I'm eating a lot of protein. Full disclosure: I've been really bad about "forgetting to eat". Adam and I are going to brainstorm a snack/meal plan to make sure this doesn't continue to happen.
Happy or moody most of the time: Pretty happy most of the time!
Looking forward to: Baby girl getting strong enough that Adam can feel her moving around!
Baby's the size of a: Pomegranate and her digestive system is prepping for real life!
Sleep: The Snoogle is still my jam, but there are some off nights here and there.
Best moment of this week: Easter celebrations with the family are always fun!
Miss anything: Not really this week.
Food cravings: I've decided I don't have any crazy cravings - I just let myself eat what I want most of the time. When in real life, I just have to fight the cravings and eat a salad. This doesn't mean I sit around and eat Reese's Eggs all day (oh, wait - I have since Easter). I actually do eat pretty healthy, but will let myself splurge when I want to without feeling guilty. (Ah, it's amazing.)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Leftovers and casseroles are still pretty much my only aversions.
Symptoms: Still get pretty lightheaded easily, but I've tried three different prenatal vitamins with Iron and they all make me sick immediately.
Happy or moody most of the time: Pretty happy most of the time!
Looking forward to: Baby girl getting strong enough that Adam can feel her moving around! I felt her kick a couple times with my hand this past week, but Adam's never around. He's starting to get pretty antsy about it!
22 Weeks: April 14
Oops - no picture! I was in Texas and didn't feel like harassing the maid to take it. :)

Baby's the size of a: Papaya and weighs a whole pound!
Sleep: I slept wrong on the Snoogle and was so sore for a couple days! I had to retire it for a few nights (which worked out since I was in Texas for meetings anyway), and somehow survived.
Best moment of this week: I spent the weekend with Jeff and Katie in Texas before my meetings started, which is always a blast!
Miss anything: Home! I was away from Adam (and the pooches) for six days!
Food cravings: Nothing new. Healthier foods are actually starting to look appealing, but not as appealing as Reese's Eggs or donuts.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Same as always. And car rides.
Symptoms: The lightheadedness (is that a word?) is still in full force. Doesn't seem to matter how much I snack, it just hits when it wants to. My abdomen also gets really sore even after just a little bit of walking. It basically feels like my stomach is about to rip open and drop a baby out. (Oh, wait. I guess that makes sense.) In the past week, I've had two awesome new symptoms show up - my vision is blurry and my nose is so stuffed up. Pregnancy is fun!! (To be honest, it really doesn't bother me. I'm growing an adorable little human so I actually enjoy the symptoms!)
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy, happy, happy!
Looking forward to: Adam is getting baptized on Sunday! He's had this planned for quite some time now and I am so excited for him!
