The Becks at 23 Weeks

 He is resting his right arm across his forehead and his left on his belly.  The life of a baby can be so hard sometimes :)


At 23 weeks you:
-Are most definitely a boy!
-Kick, wiggle, and bump around constantly for about 3 days, then take about a 2 day rest.
-Like to wake me up at 4 am with your little dance moves
-Have been nick named "Wiggle Worm" at the doctors office
-I've felt your head...or bum rub, not just bump, against my hand.  It made my heart swell :)
-You are about 11 inches big
-You can hear us talk to you
-You are perfectly healthy in every way.  I couldn't be more happy!



At 23 weeks I:
-Gained 10 pounds
-Am finally passed the "maybe she's just getting fat" stage
-Get heartburn every once and a while.  But no stretch marks, leg cramps, or ankle swelling yet
-Exercising regularly again
-Lovin' the advantage of these prego hormones and their affect on my hair and nails
-Experiencing "pregnancy brain" more frequently as well :)
-Love feeling baby's wiggles getting stronger



At 23 weeks Austin has:
-Gained no weight.  Shocker.
-Been accepted into Des Moines medical school at half tuition
-Made a pay raise
-Felt baby's wiggles multiple times
-Is taking the "How to Live with Preganacy Hormones 101" course
