25 weeks! :D

25 weeks!! This week has been great :)

Feeling pretty good! Compared to a lot of women I have lucked out during this pregnancy, (knock on wood).

Comparing this pregnancy to when I was pregnant with Kaina is like night and day.

This pregnancy has been so nice and calm. No morning sickness or anything too bad. When I was pregnant with Kaina I had morning sickness, super dizziness , high blood pressure and even had pneumonia for a few weeks during the summer. So, for this pregnancy I am feeling super blessed and happy. :)

So, so happy :)

I am so lucky to have such a great support system! Eddie and Kaina are so supportive and amazing :)

I <3 him

Beautiful girl!

Mood:

Happy, blessed - even if I'm having a hard day I'm trying to stay as positive as possible. I want little E to have as many positive vibes as possible before he is a part of this crazy world.

Exercise:

Walking, walking, walking. I have started doing 100 squats per day, minimum.

Squats supposedly make your labor easier... So, I'm doing lots ;)

(I started on day 9)

Symptoms:

Lots of body aches, headaches, sore gums and heartburn.

Carpel tunnel... I'll save that symptom for next week if I still have it.

Nothing too bad - for the most part I feel great!

All of this beautiful weather has been making me so happy! I'm also really lucky that I don't feel hot all of the time yet. I still feel cold a lot of the time - fingers crossed it stays that way.

Cravings/aversions:

Not really too many cravings or aversions. I have noticed that I don't want to eat as much as I used to. I still want lots of protein, and drinking a gallon of water a day (at least).

I've been trying to stay away from sweets... That's easier said than done ;)
