23 Weeks Pregnant – Pregnancy Update

How far along: 23 weeks.

Symptoms: My nose and sinuses seem a bit more blocked again this week, which is a bit poop at night when you’re trying to get to sleep. I am so, so dizzy this week. It affects being able to get up and about. I was late to work one day because I was too dizzy to drive. Ridiculous! I thought my blood pressure was coming up but it appears to be dropping again? Strange. So. Much. Movement. This baba is one crazy raver. It reacts a lot more to our voices. I’ve had a couple nights of feeling sick which is strange. I am SO hungry. I want to eat all the time, but I’m trying to rein it in a little!

Food Cravings: I’ve really fancied salt and vinegar crisps all week. Yum.

Movement: Lots and lots of movement from this little one. It seems to be awake for a lot longer than it’s sister was. I really hope that’s not a sign of things to come!

Gender: N/A

Sleep: Sleep hasn’t been great. Really need to find that pregnancy pillow from last time! I get a numb hip from being on my left hand side all the time.

Stretch Marks: Nope – I’ve done a post on what I’m using too. Check it out here.

Miss Anything: Not needing to pee 90% of the time.

Best Moment: Actually seeing my tummy move with the baby’s movement – although it’s sore!

Worst Moment: None really. Nice and positive.

Looking forward to: Midwife appointment next week for reassurance. They feel so far apart this time.
