22 Week Bump Update

Happy Valentine’s Day! We’re celebrating with a party at Ben’s school and then family time tonight. Hopefully J and I can celebrate on our own this weekend.
I feel like my belly really popped out this week, even compared to last week.
Here’s Week 21
And Week 22
Size of the baby: 11 inches long and weighing in at 1 pound! Size of a spaghetti squash.
Total weight gain: 13 lbs
Maternity clothes: Maternity pants, mix of both maternity and regular tops
Sleep: Sleeping through the night has gotten better, but I’m finding it hard to not lay flat on my back. I’ve been laying on the my left side and surrounding myself with pillows.
Gender: It’s a boy. Our 21 week ultrasound confirmed that baby was still a boy but we’re even happier that he looks completely healthy! We feel so blessed.
Movement: Lots and lots. I was able to feel him move once from the outside but haven’t since. I can’t wait for Ben and J to be able to feel him move.
Food cravings/aversions: Craving-salads, skim milk, brown sugar Poptarts
What I miss: A glass of wine, especially when we are out at a restaurant
Moment of the week: The baby moving
