Lima Bean: Week Twenty Five


How far along: Twenty Five weeks as of Wednesday, April 2, 2014. 
Size of baby: Lima Bean is about 13.5 inches from head to heel and weighs about 1.5 pounds (the weight of a rutabaga).
Maternity Clothes: Yes.  I just purchased two pairs of maternity leggings from Old Navy and I am in LOVE.  I need more long tops to go with them!
Movement: Lots of movement, particularly at night.
Sex of baby: It's a girl!
Sleep: Fine.
What I miss: Nothing in particular.
Cravings: Thai food, sweets.
Symptoms: Difficulty breathing.  Interesting because I never had this problem with Henry.  It wasn't that I was out of breath easily, it was more that I felt like I needed to take frequent "deep" breaths to be able to get enough oxygen.  After a couple of days, I was at the point where I was going to call the doctor, but the problem subsided.  Chalking it up to residual stuffiness from being sick along with some spring allergens.
What I'm looking forward to: Decorating the nursery!  The crib sheets and rug have arrived.  The big to do item is painting the room.  Henry will be moving to a larger room a bit farther from the master bedroom, and his current room and furniture will become Lima Bean's.  The room is pink now (poor Henry!) but will become a shade of aqua.
