"During week 22, baby’s invading your space, which is why it might be tough to catch your breath and why your back might be killing you. Hey, as she grows, she may be expanding your belly so much (so fast) that you might have some stretch marks -- and you might even have a newfound “outtie”! Now that she's got more developed eyes and lips, she's looking even more like a newborn. She's sleeping in cycles -- about 12 to 14 hours per day (hint: they're probably those times you're not feeling any kicks!)."

During month five, the average fetus measures about 10.5 to 11.8 inches and weighs about 12.7 to 20.8 ounces

I'm SO SICK!! It's hard not being able to take anything. My doctor told me i could take robitussin, so i have...but its doing nothing. a lot of people on FB told me different things i could take but honestly- i am way too big of a scaredy cat. too worried about hurting Adelynn! but its been over a week, im exhausted from not being able to sleep, and being at work during the day is getting so difficult. just having little to no voice, and just so so tired. so i think im going to call the doctor tomorrow and see if theres anything else i can take- or if i should go see my primary care. we'll see. i'm so ready to shake this cold and start feeling better.

the funny thing is- my back aches finally went away haha- so if i wasnt sick id be feeling awesome!

this week we're getting a christmas tree, finish decorating, having the in-laws over for Chili Thurs to celebrate MIL's birthday...and this weekend...no plans! so we'll see what the week brings :)

for now, off to finish dinner and enjoy a movie with hubs!
