Week 22 #Bumpdate (5.5 months!)

How far along? 22 weeks!

Baby is the size of a papaya, 10.5 inches and 1 pound approximately.

What's new for baby? 

• Now that he's got more developed eyes and lips, he's looking even more like a newborn.
• He's sleeping in cycles — about 12 to 14 hours per day (hint: they're probably those times you're not feeling any kicks!).

Total weight gain/measurements: 6 lbs in total... I am starting to feel big... 

Maternity clothes: Yes! I wear the best pair of denim shorts almost everyday!

Stretch marks? Not yet! We'll see. I added Honest Co. Organic Oil to my beauty routine. I use it after I shower in my belly, breasts, hips and tights.

Sleep: It's all good. Yesterday I had to put a small pillow underneath my belly to feel a little bit more comfortable.

Best moment this week:  Just feeling the baby moving around is amazing. She likes to move a lot when daddy talks to her or touches my bump.

Movement: Yes ;) As I'm writing this, she is moving and  I am here smiling like crazy.

Food cravings: avocado, olive oil and bread... oh, and protein chocolate shakes.

Anything making you queasy or sick? strong coffee smell.

Gender: Our little lady!

Symptoms: I am feeling at my best right now! My back hurts everyday, but other than that, I am feeling good!

Belly button in or out? In. I do not think it will ever be out.

Wedding rings on or off? On, my fingers are still the same. Yay! :)

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy

Looking forward to: My family is visiting from Costa Rica on Thursday! They have been buying a lot of presents. Baby already has a fabulous wardrobe.

Ps. I know I do not look at my best in these photos but I wanted to portrait myself in the most natural way possible: without any make up or poses to make myself look thinner.
