26 weeks

I'm 26 weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 26 Weeks 4 days (94 days until my due date)

Size of baby: Baby Ortiz is the size of an eggplant
Total Weight Gain/Loss: eeek I don't even know; I haven't weighed since my last doctor appointment

Maternity Clothes: I need to go shopping!!!

Gender: It's a boy! We're so close to picking a name... I'm tempted to wait until he's here to see if one fits better than the other, but I think we're leaning toward picking one before hand.
Movement: The baby's movement, in the last couple of days, has become more pronounced and exciting to feel and watch.
Sleep: I've been sleeping really good. Lately, I've been ignoring the urge to use the restroom at night and sleeping through it. Yay! (We'll see how much longer that lasts...)
What I miss: I've been craving a Diet Coke. I think I'll ask that anyone that comes to the hospital when the baby's born bring me a can. =)
Cravings: I'm still craving corn... More specifically: roasted corn with butter, mayo, parmesan cheese, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and garlic salt.

Symptoms: I feel a more frequent need to pee, have heartburn, my feet swell when I'm on them too much, and my gums are more sensitive (all of these sypmtoms and I still love being pregnant).

Best Moment this week: We picked and purchased the crib bedding. We decided on Pottery Barn Kids' Eli's Elephant bedding. It's adorable!! The cherry on top was that I found the entire crib bedding set (brand new) on Craig's List and got it for half the price!! We also registered at Babies 'R' Us this past Sunday (I've been looking forward to registering since the moment I had a positive pregnancy test).
