26 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights
How far along: 26 Weeks
Size of Baby: A little over a foot and a half long and weighs about 2 pounds.
Total Weight Loss/Gain: Gained a total of 19lbs.
Maternity Clothes: Everything.
Gender: It's a girl!
Movement: She is very active and constantly moving. She likes to stretch and kick my ribs.
What I miss: Laying on my stomach at night. Being able to bend with ease. Being able to paint my own toes.
Cravings: Anything spicy. My eating habits are pretty normal. I'm not constantly hungry.
Symptoms: Heartburn, frequent bathroom breaks, having a hard time getting comfortable at night. Itching that started two weeks ago. 
Best Moment of the Week: We celebrated Mason's 4th birthday yesterday. He even made a comment that Peyton would be at his next birthday party.

Over the 4th of July weekend, my ears began itching. I just assumed it was some allergy. After the weekend passed, the itching started to spread and now my hold body itches constantly. I'm worried that I have Pupps. After two weeks, I've pretty much ruled out the possibility of it being an allergy. Thankfully, I have a doctor's appointment this Wednesday, so I will be sure to mention it to them. Honestly, this pregnancy has been smooth sailing until now. I don't know if I can handle another 14 weeks of itching like this. Hopefully they will be able to recommend something to help. I also have my glucose screening and another ultrasound scheduled during this appointment. Soon I will be going every two weeks.

My belly is huge. I am worried it's going to look like I have a watermelon in my belly by the time I deliver.
