98 days!

LESS than 100 days!  That is totally nuts.  I remember when we saw the two lines just barely appear back on July 31st... we could barely believe it, and didn't let ourselves believe it and get excited actually for a while!  Now Oliver is making himself known all the time, kicking away, and I'm starting to feel more "rolling" type movements too.  Pretty nifty.

How Far Along: 26 weeks

Total weight gain: Up 13.2 which is a big-ish gain from last week, but not too worried.

Maternity clothes: Removing this question from now on, because chances are I'm not going back to non-maternity!

Sleep: I've been sick and congested so it was really bad during that time.  But my congestion has pretty much cleared up in the last 24 hrs and I have slept great for the last two nights finally.

What do you miss: Not grunting when I go to reach for something!

Movement: A lot, all over the place and above my belly button.  Most of the time I feel kicks down low, but he's definitely rolling all over in there.

Food cravings: Hmmm nothing really

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Symptoms: Not much of anything.  My heartburn has been great, I've been feeling really good, just getting kicked around!

Belly button in or out? In, but I can feel the top if it starting to stretch out.

Wedding rings on or off? On and still fitting great!

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy when I'm not sick!

Best part of the week: Spending lots of time with Andy!

Looking forward to: Getting some more sewing projects done.

So at 26 weeks, Oliver is about 14" long (English Hothouse cucumber - random!) and 1 2/3lbs.  He's getting big!  His hearing is improving and can probably hear both Andy and I when we talk now.
