Stretch Marks: body is being kind however mini is expected to go through a growth spurt in the next two weeks so I'll have to lather that cream up!
Sleep: pretty good!
Symptoms: Last week out of nowhere in the middle of the night I woke up with a charley horse. Can you say OUCH?! Holy hell, never had one of those before. The crazy thing is my friend Amy literally texted me the next day asking if I had gotten one. Too weird.

ugh charley horses are the WORST! try eating some bananas.. the potassium might help.
ReplyDeletelove your outfit :)

You look so gorgeous! Love that outfit and such a cute pic with Finn :)
ReplyDeleteYou are glowing, positively RADIANT. And you have really "popped" -- someone asked me just this weekend when I felt I did the same, and I said 22/23 weeks. Now, tell me about those amazing white jeans ... are they maternity?! With maybe only about 2 or so weeks left of my pregnancy, I'm soooo not "needing" white jeans, but I would love some!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, and I agree with Jillian -- I find that on days that I eat a banana, no charley horses. It could be purely coincidental and an old wives tale, but it's worth a banana a day to try to stave them off :) They are the worst. Also, if I feel one coming on, I've found that if I flex my foot hard, it helps to counteract it. Not fun.
ReplyDeleteOh you are such a glowing mama to be!!! I love your easter outfit!! Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit and pretty pics.
ReplyDeleteYou are just the cutest. You're glowing!!! xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Love the one of you and Finn :) Looks like you had a wonderful Easter weekend with the family! xx

Charley horses are the wooorst. Eat foods high in potassium and calcium to avoid more of them!
ReplyDeleteCute outfit!! Ahhh Charlie horses hurt like a b*tch!!! Definitely eat more bananas!
ReplyDeleteI am loving your pregnancy style - you look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThat growth spurt hit us hard! Baby and I slept for like a week straight trying to get through it :-)
ReplyDeleteI second (er, third) the banana recommendation. Through both my pregnancies, I always found that plenty of water helped avoid cramping as well. :)
ReplyDeleteNew reader BTW... love your blog. Stumbled upon it from another I read (love it when that happens!) :)

New to your blog! Congrats on your sweet baby girl. I am a mother of 3 boys and each pregnancy has had their challenges. Husbands are useful for massaging out charlie horses :)
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing!! You really are glowing. Happy you guys had a great Easter! :)

ReplyDeleteAh so cute Laura! Those charlie horses are the worst. I got them a lot with Mila I remember...not as much with Phoenix. So odd how every pregnancy is different!
ReplyDeleteLoving your Easter outfit! You look gorgeous! And Yikes on those charlie horses! That does not sound pleasant! I'm just now starting to get heartburn, I pray charlie horses aren't next! Good luck with your Glucose Testing! Hope everything goes well! <3
ReplyDeleteUm, excuse me, but how could you NOT let us know where that pretty cardigan is from??
ReplyDeleteYou are just glowing! So beautiful! Xoxo.
ReplyDeleteI forgot all about those horrible charley horses! Aside from those, you are at such a fun time- the movement is the best! I sometimes miss that!
