Pregnancy Progress: Week 23

Little baby girl and I are doing great.

Movement:  I've been feeling her move pretty much every day.  Bryce felt her move for the first time a couple days ago!!  That was exciting.


Belly: Growing!  My belly button is now becoming an "out-ie" instead of an "inn-y".  I've been surviving well with the belly band that I borrowed so that I can keep my regular jeans and pants unbuttoned and put that over.  Now, that is starting to get uncomfortable and I'm thinking I just need to dive in and start wearing maternity clothes.  I've actually still been able to wear most of my regular shirts, too.











Aches and pains:  I've started getting acid reflux after dinner.  The last few times I've tried to run, my calves cramp up pretty bad and my feet still hurt.  I've been running then walking then running when I go out now.  Other than those couple things, I'm feeling great still.  I'm SO glad to be out of school and be able to rest more.


Ever since graduating, I have fully immersed myself into baby stuff.  Hooray!  It's so fun to finally be able to take time to think about baby and enjoy this stage of life.  I've already started my two registries (Target and Amazon) and have started thinking about the nursery.

If you're a mom (or you know one), leave me a comment on one of your "must haves" for the baby/baby registry!

  3. you look great!
    baby must have: we love our swing!! brady has a little acid reflux so it's been good for him to sleep some in the swing because he is a little upright. swings come just battery powered and ones that are battery powered as well as can plug into the wall. make sure you get one that plugs in so you don't have to use as many batteries:)
