Week 25

We're now at our 25th week. Below is a picture of how big the tummy's getting. It's actually getting hard to get up from the couch without help and to walk up stairs or walk too fast without feeling winded and tired.

The baby's doing well. I started to feel her move and kick a couple of weeks ago. Now she moves around regularly early in the morning, midday, and then again around midnight. The kicking's kind of cool but when she turns or moves it feels really weird and alien. Leo still can't feel her kicks or moves though.

I'm also doing really well - this pregnancy has really been a blessing. No sickness or anything weird or alarming. Just tired a lot now since I'm not really sleeping through the night. Between the baby moving and me needing to pee all the time, I wake up every two to three hours most nights. Guess this is God's way of preparing me.

Leo's doing well too - see his video on his "training". It's really fun seeing him get excited and really trying to prepare for this baby. This baby girl is going to have her daddy wrapped around her fingers. I got to watch him change a diaper the other day and he's really getting the hang of it. He's also getting better at holding and putting a baby to sleep. yay!!!

  1. Finally a photo of you!!! You barely got any bigger compared to the previous belly photo. Looking good and healthy! Try the sleeping pillow, I heard it helps. Or put a pillow between your legs, I think that helped me a little. I think the 2 hour sleeping cycle is God's way of letting your body get ready for the 2 hour sleeping window later when the baby is here.
