26 weeks

How far along: 26 weeks!

Size of baby: The network of nerves in your baby's ears is better developed and more sensitive than before. He may now be able to hear both your voice and your partner's as you chat with each other. He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs. These so-called breathing movements are also good practice for when he's born and takes that first gulp of air. And he's continuing to put on baby fat. He now weighs about a pound and two-thirds and measures 14 inches (an English hothouse cucumber) from head to heel.

Maternity clothes: Definitely Are a must at this point. Just bought some new work pants.

Sleep: I've been exhausted this week, but trying to build my stamina

Best moment of the week: Seeing my students!! :)

Movement: She's on the move in the AM and when I lay down to go to bed. :)

Symptoms:  A very sensitive stomach! UGH!

Food cravings/aversions: Anything Sweet.....

Gender: It's a Girl!!

Belly button in or out: Starting to become a bit more shallow...

Stretch marks: Oh, I've had those before baby!

What I miss: Not having to pee every 2 hours at night....

What I am looking forward to: Making it to the third trimester!

Weekly wisdom: Some things need to just slide...

How is Mommy Feeling? Overextended with going back to work full time...

How is Daddy Feeling? Looking forward to the third trimester!

Total weight gain? 15 pounds so far my scale....

The Belly? The small bump has expanded! :)
