I'm back after a little hiatus. I didn't mean to take two weeks off AND not take any photos, but honestly my back was in so much pain I pretty much couldn't function. I have found an amazing chiropractor and been doing acupuncture and massage. This is the first weekend I have felt remotely like myself. Living in constant pain is no joke. I hope to never experience that again.
How far along? 23 weeks 6 days
Baby is the size of a: grapefruit
Stretch marks? not yet
Sleep: amazing. I have been drinking tart cherry juice before bed. I was told it increases melatonin and helps you sleep better. It definitely has been working. I also think the not being in constant pain has helped a ton. I feel like a new woman being able to sleep.
Best moment this week: We celebrated my oldest babies 5th birthday this weekend. Time has flown and I cat believe she is already 5.
Worst moment this week: There have been a few. Feeling very emotional about random things and not being able to my emotions is frustrating. Kynley turning 5 is definitely sad even though its happy! And lastly we had to get play doh out of Kyle's nose tonight. Tex looked in the rearview mirror and saw her shoving playdoh as far up there as she could. (we took little playdoh's to dinner to entertain them) Luckily he was able to dislodge a HUGE chunk when we got home. I was so worried I was going to have to take her to urgent care. Honestly I couldn't stop laughing. Kids are nuts
Miss Anything: being able to eat more than a few bits of my food without getting full. The baby is taking up all the room.
Food cravings: Lots of lemon and lime. Like lemonade, sour candies, lemon water, lime ice cream,
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Wedding rings on or off? On for the most part. When I get preggo my hormones always make me allergic to almost any metal (mainly white gold). So my finger breaks out in a rash whenever I wear my jewelry.
Happy or Moody most of the time: good...a few emotional moments but happy.
Looking forward to:This child no longer kicking me in the bladder. I swear she is feet down right now and all of her kicks are to my bladder or cervix. such a weird feeling and I am over it! Super painful sometimes too!
