Pregnancy Update: 25 Weeks

How Far Along: 25 weeks!What is Baby G Up To?: Baby G is the size of a head of cauliflower and still moving all the time. Fun fact: a pregnant woman's belly grows a centimeter with each week she is pregnant. My doctor measured my belly last week and I am right on track - 25 cm. Baby G is beginning to hear things outside the womb, which is great - Baby will be used to Juneau's barking long before they actually meet!How I’m Feeling: I feel great! My hair is growing and my nails are the healthiest they've ever been. I've been working out, doing yoga and walking, to ensure I stay active throughout the last months of this pregnancy. I want to do everything possible to ensure a natural birth. My hormones have seemed to calm down this week as well. Last week I was a sappy, frustrated, irritable mess. This week I feel much, much better!What I’m Wearing: Anything that will fit! I hate the idea of buying more maternity clothes knowing that I only have a few more weeks to wear them, so I'm getting use out of anything that I can get into!What’s On My Mind Lately: I've been thinking a lot about the labor and delivery part of this whole thing. I've been reading as much as I can and soaking in as much advice as possible. I spoke with David (although I think we may have to have the conversation again as the weeks go by) about how I'd like the labor to go in an ideal world. He is taking the labor coach role fairly seriously, although I think he is more concerned with involving himself with the actual delivery than what I'll be up to at that point. Yes, you read that correctly, David wants to deliver the baby.What I’m Craving: My co-workers took me out to lunch for my birthday and I had a hankering for pizza. It totally hit the spot. I've been trying to eat healthier than I had been and it seems to improve my mood. It's so easy to eat junk food, especially in the cold, wintery months so I'm trying hard to eat lots of protein and cut the carbs - doctor's orders!What I’m Looking Forward To: My birthday is in two days and Valentines Day is just around the corner. I'm looking forward to celebrating our final v-day as a child-less couple. We started a tradition a few years back to go out to brunch on Valentines Day. It was a nice way to get out and do something different without having to beat the dinner crowds. We will probably have a laid back weekend - just the way I would want it!Best Moment of the Week: My mom sent us a Dr. Seuss book that is to be read to the baby while still in utero. David and I have been reading it to Baby G every so often. I love the way David interacts with Baby G! He is gonna be such a good Daddy!
