This shirt has officially been deemed my ‘preggers’ shirt. I wear it almost every night to bed. I’ve got glamorous raspberry and makeup stains on it here but I do wash it every week just so you know. I debated getting this shirt because it’s flippin’ barfably cute, but it’s also $46… nah. I’ll stick with my Kitty King tribe comfy v-neck from here on out. Here’s a bit of an update of 23 weeks listed below my ‘photoshoot’.

HOW FAR ALONG// 23 weeks
BABY SIZE// As big and heavy as a grapefruit! She weighs just over a pound now and more than 11 inches long. I was told she is also able to hear sounds from above! It’s funny, while I am laying down I usually call for my cat, and being the cat mother that I am, I call her baby girl and princess in the sweetest mama voice. I’ve noticed the baby girl in my belly definitely reacts to my voice too!
TOTAL WEIGHT GAIN// I was surprised by this… 16 pounds! That’s how much my cat weighs! I gained a quick 8 pounds since my last appointment. Max has been motivating my exercise by going on jog/walks together. It’s a very big help and its continuing to help keep me motivated and fit for this baby!
MATERNITY CLOTHES// Since Mother’s Day was approaching, I treated myself to a little shopping trip last week. H&M was a dream come true. I didn’t buy anything maternity but I bought a few more maxis, and a few stretchy, long, lean, and flowy tanks for super cheap!
STRETCH MARKS// None so far. I’ve noticed on the back of my knees I am starting to develop spidery veins agh! ‘Bout to google how to get rid/maintain that shiz pronto.
SLEEP// For the most part… better. I’ve figured out how to comfortably use my body pillow but I still get numbness in my legs every now and then. Nothing too dramatic to complain about though!
BEST MOMENTS THIS WEEK// School will be over! My last final is tomorrow - Halleh. Max and I also went over to my Dad’s for a BBQ. It was so nice, we need to do it more often! Also, I got my hair trimmed. That’s always a great feeling.
MISS ANYTHING// Crocheting to be honest! All of my yarn is packed away and since I will be done with school here soon I plan on picking up my needles again to enjoy for the summer. This baby needs some goods.
MOVEMENT// Baby gurrrrl has got her dancing shoes on! She is quite mellow though which is nice. Rather than getting all feisty after I eat, it is now BEFORE I eat, letting me know she is hAngry.
CRAVINGS// Loads and loads of fruit. I’ve moved on from my orange binge and am now currently craving heaps of fresh fruit. Also, those Outshine fruit/veggie popsicles are the bomb. Max’s mom got me a box of Tangerine/Carrot - YUM!
ANYTHING MAKING YOU FEEL NAUSEOUS// Nope!
SYMPTOMS// None really. My feet hurt, but I wear sucky shoes.
BELLY BUTTON IN OR OUT// Very much in still.
HAPPY OR MOODY// Happy still! I’m not letting the stress of school get the best of me. I will either do ‘well’ or not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
LOOKING FORWARD TO// S U M M E R. It’s practically here! We’ve also set a baby shower date so it’s time to get crackin’ on that!
