week 22

Thursday, October 29, 2015



i admit it.
i've taken a couple of belly pictures.
like a couple of a lot.
it's just i've never seen my body like this + you know what?
i'm dang proud of it.
i'm proud of the growth, movement, aches + pains.
i'm loving the bigness of it, the beauty of it
+ i've honestly never felt more confident in my own skin.
i've already gained more weight than i care to share, but man,
this is a beautiful thing.

happy 22 weeks to my corn on the cob, water bottle, + american guinea pig.
we sure are doing great together.

how far along are you? 22 weeks on the dot
maternity clothes? can i just always leave this at a yes? there is no going back now. i did get some jeggings at gap though, maternity + i may or may not have worn them everyday. amazing.
sleep: a lot better since my friend nicole lent me her pregnancy pillow. amazing i tell you.
best moments: seeing my belly start to move. 
missing anything? no heartburn.
movement? yes. this little guy is doing his thing inside there. it's honestly the best?

food cravings: funny story. so i craved fries this last week. jay was in the middle of something so i got into the car at like 11:50 to go to burger king because i was wanting curly fries. i get there + all the lights are out + they are obviously closed. i started BAWLING. so hard. i walk in, tears everywhere, slam the door + waddle myself upstairs. i heard jay get on the bed + he asks me what's wrong?! i'm not getting curly friessssss jay! i'm crazy. luckily jay saved the night + grabbed me some fries from good old mcd's + that was my official middle of the night craving story!

queasy or sick? super bad heartburn. i have officially cut out sugar. this babe + sugar does not do well + though i've had very little, this last week i had some candy + really paid for it.
gender: boyyyyyyyy
symtoms: nothing much besides heartburn + kicks!
belly in or belly out? top half out, bottom half in. too funny
happy or moody? this last week has been trying, for all of us. like monday night? ohhhh monday night. even sheila stayed out of my way, but i'm getting better!
looking forward to: halloween night! even though we are doing absolutely nothing. go us.
