Month 6? Where does the time go? According to The Bump, the average fetus measures about 13.6 inches to 14.8 inches and weighs about 1.5 to 2.5 pounds. I don't feel too much bigger this week than the last. Pretty much status quo. I'm still in a mix of regular and maternity, but I'm squeezing into my pre-maternity pants still because I refuse to buy clothes that will only be worn for a short time. I'm hoping the pre-maternity pants will fit long enough to make it through the Polar Vortex at which point I won't mind switching to maternity dresses. I have a pair of maternity tights en route, too.
There is activity when I wake up in the morning, after lunch and then very late at night - usually around 11PM, but last night it was closer to 12:30AM. Husband watched my belly do the wave back at him.
It's a little surreal to think that he'll be here 3 months, give or take. I do have 3 weekends marked off in my calendar to start the big overhaul. Little Miss announced she wanted to get him a present for when he's born. Likewise, the baby will be getting Little Miss a present.
I may have bookmarked a lot of little boy clothes. One outfit may have been a pink and navy embroidered collared-shirt set. I asked Husband if it was too preppy and, strangely, he said no. I'm actually gravitating towards all things crabs. I'm not sure why that's the unofficial theme to my choices. I won't buy or at least I won't until the necessities (and a few other wants) are covered. Babies don't need clothes if they have grandparents. That's the one lesson I've learned.
