22 weeks and counting!

Here is my bump : )

We are now at the 22 week mark. More than halfway through the pregnancy. (average pregnancy is 38-40 weeks). Peanut is very active! Maybe it's a boy haha. Time will tell. At this point in the pregnancy the average weight gain is 10-16lbs. I have gained a total of 7lbs which is good because I am already a bigger woman. I have always been nervous about being pregnant because my body can gain weight so easily. One of my friends, who is much smaller than I am, gained 80lbs during her first pregnancy. Talk about a scare tactic! I am just glad things have been going so smoothly for us. I don't crave junk or fried food. Fruits, veggies, smoothies, yummmmm. It is actually hard for me to eat the amount that I am supposed to be eating. I am not used to eating so much and I even give myself a headache quite often for not eating enough on time. Water has been easy to drink as well. If my back didn't hurt so much this pregnancy would be pretty easy. Unfortunately my tail bone, which I broke 14 years ago, is in alot of pain. It has been waking me up at night and sending pains through my legs. But if that is the worst thing I have to deal with then life is pretty good! 

Our house will be ready for move in, in one month! I can't wait to get everything organized and see how beautiful our home is. We have worked so hard! We were hoping to finish in 8 months, the program states about 10 months but unfortunetly we are finishing in 11 months. All things do happen for a reason though!
