le bump / 25 weeks

feeling your presence, more and more.

progress & countdown: 25 weeks down & 99 days to go!

baby size: a rutabaga.

food & drink: not much new around here. just eating all the things. still loving protein and a hearty sandwich. and sweets are not my favorite.

bump stuff: large and in charge!

highs: seeing baby move and change positions, thus, shifting the shape of my entire belly.

lows: overdoing it a bit this week and FEELING IT.

new developments: wrinkled, thin skin is being filled out with fat to give baby that adorbale chubby look. hair is starting to grow in (if we could see inside, we could discern color and texture). wondering if baby will have the coloring and look of ben + elinor + ridley or if MAYBE, this one will have some of ME???

meaningful moments & hormones & feelings: i can now manipulate movement and give the belly a poke or rub or shake to get a response. it’s amazing. ALSO ALSO! we are in the double-digits for days left. WHOA.

superficial stuff: no linea yet… not sure if i will get one this time. hormones are weird.

looking forward to: shifting into the third trimester in a couple of weeks! crazy.
