22 Weeks- A Papaya (or a Spaghetti Squash)


Q1-13 is the size of a Papaya this week!   (another source said a spaghetti squash, and since I couldn't find a papaya, the pic is with a squash )

 
How far along? 22 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 10 lbs
Maternity clothes? all the time, yes
Stretch marks?Starting to look like it, yes
Can you see your toes?  If I stand up straight- no. If I lean over, yes. 
Sleep:  Sleeping really well now that I have made it habit to sleep on my side with the body pillow. 
Best moment this week:  Our families and friends coming over and getting to reveal the gender of our baby to everyone!    
Miss Anything? Real sushi and not just veggie rolls.  I really missed being able to drink wine at our party this past weekend. 
Movement: Yes all the time!  Some days HE is constantly moving! 
Still running?  Yes, but my already turtle-like pace has gotten even slower!  I'm just past a crawl now.  I'm also experiencing a little pain in my abdomen when I run, so I have been keeping it light. 
Food cravings:  5 Guys Burgers :)  and this one is odd- tonight I really wanted Ballreich's Potato Chips dipped in pizza sauce. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: bananas get my gag reflex

Have you started to show yet: I'm starting to get to that point where even if you don't know me, you can tell I have a baby bump
Gender prediction: IT'S A BOY!!!!!!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I've been really up and down.  Some days I am really really mean and stressed out, others I am Miss Happy-Go-Lucky, yet others I am so weepy!  
Weekly Wisdom: I recieved so much wonderful advice from my mother and my mother-in-law when we went to Target this past weekend.  The two of them helped me put together the baby registry.  We learned a little about what we don't need, and what we do need.  Both mothers had different viewpoints of motherhood to offer, and I so appreciated their advice :) 
Looking forward to: Telling the gender to my students and the cross country team tomorrow !!!!  :)
