Week 21

Week 21

(should think about taking pictures a little later in the day...)

Week 20 Stats:

Total Weight gain- not sure...got a lot of comments this week, so probably a few more pounds.

Maternity Clothes- Hanging in there with just tops, but several pairs of my pants are getting tight.

Symptoms- Nothing too noteworthy. A return of heartburn would be the biggest change.

Sleep-Going through an insomnia phrase...not so fun. I am a girl who loves her sleep...I guess it is natures way of prepping for what is to come!

Best moment- Feeling more and more movement. It is fun to know that he is a BOY. I also so read him The Places You'll Go for babies in utero on Dr. Suess's birthday. Also had fun making a baby name bracket...that will be another post to come.

Cravings- Still no cravings.

Missing- Have to say sleep...will probably say that for YEARS to come.

Looking forward to- Announcing his name.

SOme of my students have started to notice the bump...which has been kinda comical. Here's a couple of conversations:

(In the lunchroom)

2nd grade girl- looks at belly, looks up at me Are you pray-nent?

me- um, yes I am

another 2nd grade girl- What kinds are you having?

me- ah...the boy kind

2nd girl- you should name him Joshua

1st girl- ya or Christopher

2nd girl- yah! Christopher Columbus!

Later in the week in a second grade classroom...I got a hug from a student and overheard another student whisper "be careful, she's going to have a baby!"
