How Far Along: 22 Weeks
Size of baby: Spaghetti squash (about 11 inches and about 1 pound)
Maternity Clothes: I wear mostly skirts with elastic waists, stretchy pants or my maternity shorts. I have maternity tops but I also still wear my regular tops as well.
Gender: Boy!

Movement: I still don't know. I feel like every once in a while I feel him move but then it goes away. I think I am unsure because it is never a constant movement. I asked my doctor and she told me not to worry about it at this point. She said a lot of woman have a hard time distinguishing movement until after 24 weeks with their first pregnancies. So, that made me feel a lot better.
Sleep: Still getting up a couple times a night but other than that, I sleep pretty good. However, one of the things that has been happening since I got pregnant is that my dreams are very crazy and vivid! I was never one to remember my dreams but now they sometimes even wake me up because they feel so real.
What I miss: I have not really missed alcohol at all but we have gone to a couple BBQs this summer and an ice cold beer looks pretty tasty. I tried an O'douls one night at my in-laws but I couldn't even finish it because I felt too guilty (it tastes too much like the real thing!).
Cravings: Fruit and ice cream!

Best Moment this week: We pre-registered at Buy Buy Baby over the weekend. I say "pre" because I am still updated both my Babies R Us and Buy Buy Baby registries. I feel like I am almost done but just need to touch up a few things. I debated for a while on whether or not I should register at Buy Buy Baby (because it is new to the STL area) but I'm glad I did because I just love their stuff! Everything is so organized and clean. Also, they are owned by the same company as Bed Bath and Beyond so you can use Bed Bath and Beyond coupons there (as long as they aren't expired). I figure since my stroller is the same price at Babies R Us and Buy Buy Baby, why not register for it at the store where people could get it for 20% off :).
