Sorry no picture this week!
On my normal picture day, I was busy running around cleaning and baking for the holidays : )
How far along: 23 weeks
Baby Size: Grapefruit
Baby Developments: 10.5-11.8 inches and 12.7-20.8 ounces, face is fully formed, can hear the following: my voice, my heartbeat and Lexi barking
Weight gain: No weighing during the holidays
Maternity clothes: I hit the mall Tuesday for some holiday shirts and ended up buying a pair of yoga pants, exercise tees, modern skinny jeans, and casual tops! Merry Christmas to ME : )
Stretch marks: Yes, teeny tiny ones have been spotted on the back of my left calf! I have noticed light blue marks on the side on my belly. I'm wondering if it's veins or the start of stretch marks?
Sleep: My sleep has been terrible this week :( I have developed terrible acid reflux at nighttime! I talked to my OB and she told me to take Pepcid Complete 30 minutes before bedtime. It works wonders! Ever since I started taking Pepcid I'm back to my normal sleeping.
Best moment this week: Getting Aiden's crib put together and putting the crib skirt on...thanks to my Baby Daddy :)
Miss Anything: I'm not missing a single thing! I'm loving being pregnant around the holidays!
