My Pregnancy Journal ~ Week 25

Week 25

   
     Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but she's beginning to exchange her long, lean look for some baby fat. As she does, her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more and more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.. From BabyCenter

Random Thoughts: I think this baby boy is going to be a wild one.  He likes to rise early and starts kicking around 4 or 4:30 most mornings.  Plus he likes to be up late dancing around.  He is a little party animal.  I am starting to realize how quick this pregnancy is going and how little I have done.  With Jayden I already had his room mostly set up already.  I have items, but nothing set up so far for baby.  When John gets home I really want to get the crib put together.  This will help me see how the room can go and I will order the dresser/changing table.  Then I can get started on arranging and getting things we need.  I know the crib isn't necessary right way, but I know with Jayden here it will be good for baby boy to have a room to nap in that can be closed off.   

Symptoms/Medical:  Sleepy once again.. but some due to not sleeping well.  I have had some minor back pain.. I am not looking forward to this.  With Jayden I had horrible back pain.  I have also had a few leg cramps. 

Weight Gain: NONE!  yay .. 24lbs over all. 

Cravings: Ice cream... Red vines

Food Aversions: Nada

What made me cry this week: Don't think I cried this week.  It has been to crazy busy to stop and cry, lol!

Thoughts from Jayden: Jayden was super excited to wake from his late nap on Monday to find his new Step 2 climber being put together by myself and my mom.  He was so happy.  We were telling him that when his baby brother comes he can share it since there are 2 steering wheels.  At first he pointed to his Little Tikes slide and said that one is for baby brother.  But then he told me he can share cause there are two.  He actually decided on which one is for him and which is for baby brother. 

Something I am excited about: Still excited about baby stuff.  I received my Mamaroo and some fun maternity shirts.  I can't wait to get the baby room started.. but it will be a couple weeks with John out of town.  This weekend Jayden and I will be participating in Walk With Me to raise money for children with disabilities so that should be fun.
