Belly bump week #25

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart...
Jeremiah 1:5

How far along are you?
25 weeks
Best Moment this week?
Hmmmm..... It has been a challenging week. Isabel got me sick with her cold and cough. I ran a low grade fever but managed by Tylenol. Unfortunately, I had a Gastrointestinal issue this weekend which kept me bed bound with frequent trips to the bathroom.
Prayer requests?
That I'll get better soon
Baby's growth?
Baby D3 now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His or her weight – a pound and a half
Weight gain?
Weighed myself this morning. Quite a drastic drop just because I was not eating or tolerating much. With the diarrhea the water weight has changed of course. +24 lbs which is 3 lbs less than a week ago.
Exercise?
Nada
The last time I did Zumba was on my birthday while on vacation. Since sick with a fever last week, I just slept and slept as soon as I'm off of work.
Cravings? Food Aversions?
Scared of dairy right now. I just want to feel better....
Sleep?
Since bed bound, I took about 3 naps yesterday while the kids did yard work with their dad. Of course, I was woken up by my loud tummy.... And need for potty breaks. {sorry, TMI}
Maternity Clothes?
Post-shower pict. What a difference a shower makes for the spirit.
Top: Liz Lange maternity by target
Shorts: Liz Lange too
Some assortments over the week:
Nonmaternity from zulily
Maternity top from motherhood maternity
And my tights: oh I love them so.
Gender?
It's a surprise!
Movement?
Thank goodness baby D3 loves to kick and move.... I'm thankful I'm not overly dehydrated and he/she is still doing fine.
About the rest of the family...
Kids did great with their dad during Mass yesterday. {thanks hubs for stepping up yet again due to my illness. You're amazing!}
Something to share...
Good friend of ours from Michigan gave birth via c-sec this morning to a baby boy Giovanni (Nino) weighing 8 lbs 1 oz. so excited to meet him.
