How far along: 22 weeks!
Baby Size: About the size of a butternut squash.
Weight gain: None. I lost over 4 kg in the first trimester. So just got back to my original weigh.
Maternity clothes: Regular zip and button pants are getting a little tight now. I squeezed myself in my favourite shorts for lunch for the last time today. But I could still fit in my regular dresses. Ha!
Stretch marks: I still have lots from the first pregnancy. Would the stretch happens along the same lines and not create more marks? *Feeling hopeful and helpless at the same time*
Sleep: 17 months old Lauren is finally sleeping through the night but I’m getting up every 3 hours to pee.
Gender: Another girl! A sister for Lauren. Yay!
Movement: Strong kicks started at 20th weeks. An night owl this one. Happens most during midnight.
Food cravings: Mangoes.
Symptoms: Varicose veins is worse than the first pregnancy. I can feel the pressure on my legs when I stand. But it’ll disappear as soon as the baby is out, so am not worried. Belly button is popping out and is now flat again. Other than that, all good 🙂
Looking good, Michelle!
For stretchmarks, you can try using bio oil 🙂

Thanks Mabel. Yeah, heard lots about Bio Oil. My sis uses them, didn't really work though. I think stretch marks are heredity. All women in my family get them 🙁
