22 Weeks!

A 22 Week Update!


How far along: 22 weeks! She is about the size of a spaghetti squash..is that the same thing as a yellow squash??? Most of the weekly updates I get say she is about a pound.
A lot of the weekly pregnancy blog updates ask about belly buttons and stretch marks. So far no stretch marks on my belly. I haven't been using anything mostly because I don't like the way the Palmers lotion smells/feels. I've also heard if you are going to get them there is nothing to prevent them. We will see! As far as my belly button goes, it used to be a deep 'innie'. Now it is a very shallow 'innie', almost flush with my stomach. I feel like it will probably pop out any day now!
Sleep: Sleep is ok, I find myself waking up more to go to the bathroom.
Symptoms: Yall, if they had a "who had the most heartburn while pregnant" contest, I would win. Hands down. It has been so awful. No amount of Tums or Zantac 75 helps.
I also noticed my feet swelling some this week, and I know I need to curb the salt intake..

Food Cravings: Still Mexican food.

Gender: A sweet baby girl.

Name: Tenley Hope Arnett

Movement: She's a mover alright! She likes to move after I eat, almost like she is excited. HA! She hasn't given her daddy any more kicks but I know those are coming as she grows and becomes stronger.
Best Pregnancy Moment: This really doesn't count as a pregnancy moment, but we have been extremely busy lately. Mark and I are now on opposite schedules and it seems like we never see each other. We spent the whole day Sunday together and it was definitely much needed.

What I Miss: I miss easily getting out of bed, sleeping on my back, and eating whatever I want.
What I'm Looking Forward To: We bought her crib and dresser last week! I can't wait to paint her room and get everything set up. We also have her 22 week appointment this week.
