25 Weeks

How far along? 25 weeks

Size of baby? an eggplant, 13.5 inches head to toe, about 1.7 lbs 

How I'm changing? Just getting larger and larger. My back is definitely hurting a lot now, especially during my work commutes. I finally bought a heating pad and it has worked wonders at night. And my hair has definitely changed. It's thicker and growing like crazy, and suddenly it has a wavy texture when I let it air dry. So odd because my hair is straight as it gets usually. 


What I'm eating/not eating? Baby still loves Mexican food... and I've been on a cereal kick lately. 

Skin changes? Nope, still nothing. No stretch marks, no linea nigra, nothing. I'm surprised though because I'm definitely stretching, ha. 

Maternity clothes? Not yet, but good grief do I need them. Luckily my best friend Ash is sending me hers to borrow! She sent me these pictures to see what all I wanted... I said I'll take it all! So excited to have more things added to my current rotation of 5 dresses! She's the best. 



Best moment of the week? Baby girl is getting very strong with her kicks, some of them take my breath away already. It's hilarious to see my belly jumping around. The other night, Hubs finally saw her kicking from the outside. It really is like Alien. Thumps and jumps all over the place. When Hubs saw this, he just exclaimed "BABY!" and pointed. I love all of these firsts.
