By the way, we are all doing great! Chris started a new job this week and despite Noah crashing into the toilet seat after tripping and thus getting a black eye, he is doing totally awesome and got a hair cut, and me and baby are also doing great! I woke up the other night feeling dizzy, but I am no too worried about it. My blood pressure was fine at my last appointment and I am going in for the glucose test in a week and half. I had my second prenatal yoga class tonight and all is great. :)
Thanks for checking in!
25 weeks today:
"How your baby's growing
Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but she's beginning to exchange her long, lean look for some baby fat. As she does, her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more and more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.
How your life's changing
You may also notice that you can't move around as gracefully as before. Unless your caregiver has advised you otherwise, it's fine to continue to exercise, but follow a few safety rules: Don't work out when you're feeling overly tired and stop if you feel any pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath. Don't lie flat on your back and avoid contact sports as well as any exercise where you're apt to lose your balance. Be sure to drink plenty of water, and make time for both warm-up and cool-down periods.Your baby's not the only one with more hair — your locks may look more full and lustrous than ever. It's not that you're growing more hair, but thanks to hormonal changes, the hair that you'd normally shed is sticking around longer than usual. Enjoy the fullness while you can — the extra hair will fall out after you give birth." From Baby Center
