Thankfully, I rarely take my frumpy self out in public these days. <br \/><strong>Sleep<\/strong>: Sleeping great still! The past few days I\u2019ve even managed to make it to the morning without waking to pee! So bizarre!<br \/><strong>Best moments this week: <\/strong>Mother\u2019s Day weekend at the lake!<br \/><strong>Miss Anything: <\/strong>pretty excited for cocktails at the lake next summer&#8230; ;)<br \/><strong>Movement:<\/strong> yes!!! I am feeling the tiniest little movements from her starting this week! It\u2019s so sweet!! And about 3 weeks earlier than what I felt with Milly. <br \/><strong>Food cravings:<\/strong> hmm&#8230; no I don\u2019t think so. <br \/><strong>Anything making you queasy or sick:<\/strong> nope! Let\u2019s see, any symptoms lately? I have had heart burn a few times, but it was nothing a couple tums couldn\u2019t handle. I did have some lower back\/ tailbone pain a couple weeks ago which felt so similar to what I had with milly, but I used a heat pack on it a few nights and it kind of just went away on its own. Thankfully. <br \/><strong>Have you started to show yet:<\/strong> yeah, feeling quite large these days which is pretty funny considering I\u2019m not even halfway&#8230;<br \/><strong>Gender:<\/strong> baby girl<br \/><strong>Labor Signs:<\/strong> nope<br \/><strong>Belly Button in or out?<\/strong> It depends on how I\u2019m laying haha. <br \/><strong>Wedding rings on or off?<\/strong> On<br \/><strong>Happy or Moody most of the time:<\/strong> happy! :) <br \/><strong>Weekly Wisdom:<\/strong> I use baby oil on my stomach to try to prevent stretch marks. Or correction, my husband uses it hah! I absolutely hate touching it so he puts it on for me. It keeps my stomach soft and moisturized for days! So I shower ever other day usually which means I don\u2019t have to have it put on every night, just every other. It\u2019s what I used last time, and I somehow managed to not get stretch marks. BUT, Milly was two weeks early so&#8230; who knows if I would\u2019ve gotten them had I gone 40 weeks or later. Fingers crossed for this time around! <br \/><strong>Looking Forward to: <\/strong>Memorial Day weekend back at the lake later this month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/28d1016a-7509-460d-b6a1-467838709721-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/28d1016a-7509-460d-b6a1-467838709721-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/28d1016a-7509-460d-b6a1-467838709721-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/28d1016a-7509-460d-b6a1-467838709721-708x944.jpg 708w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How far along? 16 weeksTotal weight gain: I think I\u2019m at about 3-4 lbs nowMaternity clothes?
