It's week 22...


Well, week 22 is off to an uneventful start. We get to visit Dr. Sammarco tomorrow morning, but other than that, life has been rather boring, not that I am going to complain about boring. I think Sparky may have made the move to the head down position since I've been battling a bulge that is frequently stuck right up under my rib cage. The kicking hasn't stopped and I'm sure the 11 or so inches of little girl must be bent up in someway or another resulting in her bottom in my ribs and her feet kicking away below my belly button.

Speaking of that - my belly button is mere days away from disappearing. Everyday it gets a little shallower and shallower. My waistline is 42 inches as of this evening and I've gained 3 pounds in the last 4 weeks. I'm sure the weight gain will pick up as Sparky starts growing faster and faster.

As for this week's photos - Steve says this depicts the exhausted, right out of the shower after work version of my pregnant self very well. Maize is already feeling very sad now that she can't sit on my lap anymore, she's been stuck laying on the cold, hard wood floor doing dog things. She will be very sad when Sparky comes home and she can't sit on Steve's lap either.
