22 weeks

 

How Far Along: 22 Weeks

Size of baby: Almost 1 pound and 11 inches long. He is about the length of a spaghetti squash.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 9 pounds

Maternity Clothes: All maternity pants now and mostly maternity shirts.

Gender: It's a BOY!! Mason Carter Mitchell

Movement: Mason is really movin' and shakin' now! People can now feel him from the outside. On Tuesday (22 weeks, 1 day) Cheri and Angie were able to feel him move. Angie said that Mason is a little toot because he didn't want to move for her.

Food Cravings: Not sure if this is a real craving, but the past few days I have wanted french fries at least once a day. Just about anything sounds good to eat.

What I miss: The only thing I can think that I miss right now is sleeping on my back.

Sleep: I'm having more trouble getting comfortable while sleeping. Since I'm just sleeping on my side, my hips get very sore after I lay on one side for a while. No crazy dreams in a while.

Symptoms: Mostly just being uncomfortable while sleeping and a few aches and pains in my hips and lower "summy". I am feeling so good and have plenty of energy. This is such a nice change!

Best Moment this week: Angie and Cheri being able to feel Mason move.

What I am looking forward to: Christmas and just enjoying being pregnant with "sweet wittle Mason".
