25 Weeks -Time is flying by

It's so hard to believe that this pregnancy is progressing as quickly as it is. I am so anxious to meet baby Keown, but at the same time, I'm really enjoying being pregnant. So bitter sweet.

How Far Along: 24 weeks 6 days
Total Weight Gain: 6-8 lbs I'm making better choices with what I eat. I'm sure baby misses all of the desserts though.
Maternity Clothes: Yes. I am still able to wear most of my pre-pregnancy clothes, however, I think that I am going to hang up my prepregnancy jeans, because they are not longer comfortable. I didn't realize how comfy the maternity jeans would turn out to be.
Stretch Marks: Still none, fingers still crossed!
Best Moment This Week: Feeling baby move all over my belly. Not just in my lower stomach. Baby is growing so much. Also, recording baby Keown kicking daddys cell phone on my belly.
Miss Anything: Not having pelvis and hip pain. Everytime I roll over at night, get out of bed, get up from sitting or just move my legs, my pelvis hurts. I can usually get up and walk and it eases but it's been going on all week. I guess my body is just getting ready for baby. :O)
Movement: So so. Baby had a couple of days of being lazy. Just a few kicks and nudges here and there, however, the last couple of days my ninja baby is back in action. The kicks and punches are getting strong too. Baby actually woke me up the other night kicking my side to the point it tickled. I woke Josh up giggling in the middle of the night. It was pretty neat.
Food Cravings: Lots'O'Fruit. I think I have eaten and entire bag or green and red grapes. Still just want juicy fruits. Peaches are still VERY high on the list of things I want most, and Josh and I enjoyed at VERY delish cantaloupe. YUM YUM.
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Nothing new. Just meat. I did manage to eat chicken this past weekend. Even though it wasn't much. I found that Josh grilling it, makes it a little more appealing to me. Still not my favorite though.
Gender: Still unknown. A lot of people have been telling me, still this week, that it's a girl. We'll see!
Labor Signs: None yet. I did read in my book last night, though, that Braxton Hicks Contractions could start at any time now.
Symptoms: Hip/Pelvis pain, some aches and pains in my lower back, almost at my tail bone, I'm now officially waddling but I don't think it's because I'm so big, I think it is because of my discomfort in my hips, and I'm not sleeping really well, I tend to toss and turn all night. But all worth it!
Belly Button In or Out: In still but almost completely flat. I think It'll come on out.
Wedding Rings On or Off: Still on
Happy or Moody Most of the Time: Happy. I did have a melt down the other night, but I'm pretty happy.
Looking Forward Too: Breastfeeding class next Thursday. Should be interesting. Hope I learn lots.
