Baby G2 Belly - 22 Weeks

How far along? 22 weeks

Baby size? About 11 inches long and weighs about a pound

What's going on with the baby? She/he is forming little nipples; the face is fully formed and just needs some extra fat to fill it out; they're listening to my heartbeat, and voice 

Total weight gain/loss: Well, my feet are still visible... if I kind of lean over a tad.

Maternity clothes? Score of the week: Found a maternity Giants top to last me through the season!!! Which is great because plan B was to wear a bra and paint my belly black and orange every game.

Stretch marks? Nu-uh

Sleep: Sure would be better if we didn't have a 2-year-old sleep regression going on! But can't blame that on Baby G2 ;-)

Best moment this week: Nesting! In the attempt to avoid total toddler traumatization when baby arrives, we're trying to start the new shared sibling room layout early. For now, the goal is to move Hailey from her crib-turned-toddler-bed into a new toddler bed and turn her crib back into a newborn crib for Baby G2...

Dad builds furniture, I build life. Even Steven.

Final Product...

Ta Da!!

Not a bad room for two kids right? Well in the eyes of my toddler, WRONG! Hailey has decided she wants nothing to do with the new toddler bed and sleep is for the weak. Insert 2 year old sleep regression here... ugh.

Miss anything? My award-winning sleeping toddler. And wine. 

Movement: Plenty :) Mostly on the lower half of my belly.

Food cravings: ALLTHEFOODS

Anything making you queasy or sick? Iron pills

Have you started to show yet? Sure have!

Gender prediction: I'm throwing this one to Hailey this week... asked her if she thinks she's getting a baby brother or baby sister. Her response: buduh. So boy.

Labor signs: Nada.

Belly button in or out? In. 

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or moody most of the time? Is tired a mood?

Looking forward to: Getting back my stamina to chase after Hailey. Thank goodness newborns can't run.

Full disclosure: this week's belly pic was taken in the afternoon after a full breakfast & lunch (rather than the typical 1st thing in the morning... so some of that is baby, some of that is Chipotle...
