What I Wore Wednesday, Baby Edition Week 24/25

I am linking up again with The Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday. I'm looking more and more pregnant, which means more people stop and ask about the pregnancy. I welcome the chance to talk about being pregnant since I had very few people ask when I was pregnant with Jack. I like sharing my news. 

I busted out the maternity jeans last week, thinking it was time, but they just fell off of me. I guess I need to get a belly band for this transitional period. I can still button up my normal jeans, but it's getting to be too uncomfortable. This post covers a 2-week period from Christmas Eve to the week of New Years.

Christmas Eve.

This was the first time I saw a picture of myself and thought, "Oh my word, I'm huge!"

What I Wore Wednesday, Baby Edition Week 20

Today I am linking up with The Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday. I am definitely not a person that pays a lot of attention to style. I live in blue jeans and red tennis shoes and whatever shirt I can find that is clean. Either that, or workout clothes. 

I am fascinated with how the human body changes during pregnancy and how different clothes can make you look more or less pregnant. It is also interesting how the time of day effects how pregnant I look. I'm just past the halfway mark of this pregnancy and thought it would be fun to document a full week of how my body is changing. If you're not interested in that, no worries, carry on with your life.

Thursday, post Thanksgiving meal. This was the most pregnant I have looked thus far. 

This picture was late in the day after lots of good food.

Friday evening. Photo taken in the late afternoon.

Saturday, officially 20 weeks pregnant.

Photo taken in the morning. I think the Thanksgiving food had finally worn off by this day.

Sunday, ready for church.

Photo taken early in the morning. 

Monday, heading out the door for a Pump class at the Y.

Photo taken about mid morning. 

Tuesday, pretty typical of what I wear during the week after my workout.

Photo taken in the afternoon (post Boot Camp class at the Y). 

Wednesday, running out the door for preschool drop off.

Photo taken early in the morning. 

I am still wearing my regular clothes (including pants), but it's nice to have some maternity clothes to throw on. Sweaters are very forgiving and perfect for cold days.

28Weeks.5Days.

My Pregnancy By the Numbers...

198 prenatal vitamins swallowed.

133 shots in my stomach.

133 beats per minute was what Jack's heartbeat was last Friday.

79 days until our due date. 

52 days of lower back pain – a frozen bag of okra is my go-to for easing the pain.

14 pounds gained.

12 days since I have experienced heartburn – thank you Nexium.

10 days of sinus pressure changes in my head – makes me feel like I am living in a fog.

7 OB visits completed.

4 workouts this week.

3 is approximate number of times I feel Jack moving each day.

2 candy bars eaten this week.

1 glucose test passed.

What I Wore Wednesday:
Shirt from Old Navy. Shorts from Target {maternity section}.

On a completely separate note, if you have been wondering what the dancer's pose is {ahem mom and dad} or are just curious as to what an almost 29 week pregnant woman looks like doing said dancer's pose... this GIF is for you.
