26 weeks!

Weekly check-in:

How far along?: 26w3d
How big is baby: Still the size of an eggplant! I guess baby's growth is getting slower now as we approach 3rd tri?
Weight gain/loss: 18 lbs! Yikes! Still in check for a healthy weight gain though.
Pregnancy symptoms:  Ever growing belly, darker linea negra, nesting instinct (?)
Maternity clothes: I love my full panel maternity pants :-)
Stretch Marks: None
Sleep: I was able to move my bedtime from 1 am to 12 mn! I've been getting 7 hrs of sleep this week. I have to work on going to bed much earlier.
Best moment this week: Daddy Jarbs singing Michael Buble's song (I just Haven't Met You Yet). He said that's his song to Baby Jarbs. So sweet :-)
Movement: Yes, a lot of baby movement especially after I eat something sweet. She also moves a lot when I am about to go to bed. I think she's starting to be a night owl. Not good!
Food cravings: Banana pancake! Been eating banana pancakes every weekend for 3 weeks now. I've noticed that I don't crave for salty food anymore and slowly gravitating toward sweet stuff.
Food aversions: Nothing in particular
Labor signs: None
Belly button in or out: Hmm flat?
What I miss: Not being fat :-)
What I am looking forward to: cloth diaper class tomorrow and giving my late (surprise) anniversary gift to Daddy Jarbs on Saturday (I'll have a separate post about this on Saturday). I am NOT looking forward to my glucose test tomorrow :-(
Milestones:


Baby's soaking up your antibodies, getting her immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and she'll soon be practicing the blink...perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.
