26 weeks preg with Camryn

So I'm deciding to give this blog another shot. Obviously I'm delayed by a great deal but if I actually stick with it it'll be perfect giving that I stopped blogging my pregnancy with Christian at 32 weeks. Anyway, I'm totally a rambler at times. So let's begin...

How far along?
26 weeks

How big is Camryn?
I have no idea the fruit equivalent... but I think she weighs about 2 lbs...

Total weight gain/loss?
Lol I've definitely gained...um about 17 lbs so far if my math and my memory serves me correctly. I must add I NEVER got back down to my prepregnancy weight. Breastfeeding helps you drop weight was a bunch of lies. I nursed Christian 17 months and still held on to 10 pounds. I mean I didn't do much to try to lose it either but that's totally BESIDES the point...

Maternity clothes?
For sure. I wore my last pair of pants all the way up until Thanksgiving and they magically stopped fitting lol...I was around 17 weeks I think...

Sleep?
Sleep is great when my son decides to sleep through the night...mind you he's 2 freaking years old....Every time I wake up I'm sleeping on my back and apparently that's a big no-no but second time around you could care less about rules lol.

Best moment this week?
So my cousin let me borrow her fetal doppler and I was so excited to use it. So Saturday night I'm testing it out for hubby and totally giddy because I can hear her heartbeat. And then Christian asks if he can do it and it was totally precious bc he was trying to find her heartbeat. And he was so happy and it was like the best moment all week most definitely.

Symptoms?
Back ache. But only after working all day and coming home to my second job-cooking dinner, caring for a toddler. ..all while my husband is away doing basketball....I'm so glad the season is almost over

Food cravings?
Not really. I usually have nightly bowls of cereal like with Christian and pizza is every Friday. It must have extra sauce :-)

Food aversions?
Well foods aren't the same. Foods that I loved prior to getting pregnant, I don't care for. I hate the thought of Chinese food and I don't like Chickfila.

Gender?
Baby girl Camryn Laila Bradford

Labor signs?
No but I did fall yesterday smh. I was cooking dinner for the week and hubby was bathing Christian. Well Christian started frantically crying MY EYES and in a hurry to see what was going on I slid off of Christians pissy mattress cover that was in the hall waiting to be washed. Well that shut everyone up and left my right side in pain. Ugh. Being pregnant with a toddler smh

Belly button in or out?
Neither. ..it's flat lol

What I miss?
Sleep. But I haven't had sleep since 2012.

What I'm looking forward to?
Meeting my precious child with her 11 fingers...another story for another time. And the ultrasound in a couple of weeks.

Milestones?
Wednesday I'll officially be in my third trimester. Woo hoo

Bump?
Yes. Thank God
