26 Weeks

Houston. We have a problem. The past week I experienced a huge growth spurt and I feel it. The problem derives from the fact that I really didn't spend very much time getting clothes for my growing body. For some reason I only focused on bras and I bought three shirts just because. Well that's great if you have bottoms to wear with those tops.... I just could bring myself to go into the maternity stores.

Ahhhh. I didn't really think that I had a problem. I can still button a pair of my jeans so I thought that other things in my closet would fit. Denial. I guess those jeans only made of lyrca because nothing else does fit. I am left with yoga pants and a few dresses. As you can see in the photo even my tank top is working hard but still cannot cover the belly. 

Rumor on the street is that there is a good maternity store in Centro Macae and I am sure that will cost me a pretty penny. I will just have to see how resourceful I can be. If all else fails then Nate's clothes should work :) 

Onto other things: 

Belle moves all the time and I even see my belly move. 

I forget something everyday.

I haven't noticed any stretch marks but I am sure they are waiting for a bad day to show up.

I feel great! 

Starting to get tired more.

I am sleeping less. 

I have anxiety.

My next doctor appointment isn't until May 6th. 

Not sure when we tour the hospitals.

My face is clearing up.

My legs rub together when I walk now- Nate laughs.

I am sick of water and have started making more herbal tea with milk and sugar.

I have switched back to skim milk since my weight gain is on target.

Heartburn is not my friend but he likes to visit me daily.

That seems to be about it really. I still don't have any complaints about being pregnant and life is good. I will write up a house update tomorrow- problems, Claudia, pool guy, and GG. Then I will do a Macae update- Mr. and Mrs. Sticks photos :), bike path, acai place and whatever else I can find.

Have a great day!

Tchau,

Sara
