22 Week Bumpdate

My bumpdate is a day late.. sorry.. 

What is in the air this summer?! My allergies are awful! We visited my aunt and uncle this weekend (more on that tomorrow!) and I started feeling kinda nasty Saturday night and then by Sunday I was a full blown snot/sneeze/headache machine. Yuck. I have also had a really itchy throat that has progressed into a bad sore throat.. so bring on the hot tea and Sierra Mist!

Anyway, enough complaining--time to update ya on this bump!

This is about as good as it gets when I'm home sick.

 How far along: 21 weeks, 5 days (AKA 22 weeks)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: On Friday night I was only a pound over my pre-pregnancy weight--however, after all of the yummy food I ate this weekend (and all of the Sierra Mist I'm drinking), I'm up another 2 pounds! I guess that's a really dragged out way of saying I'm up 3 pounds.

Maternity clothes: Nope.

Stretch marks: Noooo!

Sleep: I <3 my naps but nighttime sleep has been hard to come by because of throat.. oh well.. I just sleep whenever I can.

Best moment last week: Visiting Uncle George and Aunt Judy out on the farm--it was the perfect combination of both fun and relaxing. I'll share pictures/stories tomorrow!

Movement: Still no fluttering but I'm definitely feeling something (Baby, is that you?!). In the mornings when I put my hand on my bump, I can also feel little "kicks" (for lack of a better word)--not sure if that's the baby kicking/moving or if it's just gas bubbles..

Food cravings/aversions: I'm still a happy camper and will eat anything--loving my meats, veggies and cereal!

Gender: Boy babe. 

Labor signs: Nooo!

Belly button - in or out? Innie.

What I miss: My family.. this weekend went by wayyyyy too quickly. 

What I am looking forward to: Picking out a name. Brandon and I talked about it a little bit on our way home Sunday so we have an idea but nothing is set in stone yet.

Milestones: I think I feel the baby moving..? Maybe?
