23 Week Bump Date

How Far Along: 23 Weeks + 1 Day
(You can check out my 23 week post from when I was pregnant with Jackson here.)


Size of Baby: (According to babycenter.com) 23 weeks: Your baby is about the size of a large mango. Your baby now weighs just over a pound and is more than 11 inches long – and if you turn on some tunes and sway to the music, he/she can feel you dance.


Total Weight Gain/Loss: At my 21 week appt. I totally forgot to pay attention to how much I had gained total. At 17 weeks I was up 10 lbs.


Maternity Clothes: Yes, all maternity clothes.


Gender: Its a GIRL!!!


Movement: Yes, she's moving around quite a bit now, and I love it.


Food Cravings: Still no real food cravings.


What I miss: Nothing really at the moment, other than just being able to do normal things without feeling tired or out of breath.


Sleep: Having to get up at least once a night to use the restroom and just can't seem to get comfortable sometimes.


Symptoms: A growing belly, a few Braxton Hicks contractions here and there and some sciatic nerve pain.


Best Moment this week: Just feeling baby girl move more and more.


What I am looking forward to: Having a definite name for baby girl and getting her nursery ready.
