23 weeks. I only have to go to 39 as that is when the doctor said she would schedule the c-section.
Heartburn abounds. My feet are beginning to swell. My vagina still feels bruised. And my belly is starting to get to the point where crossing my legs is a thing of the past. Don't ask me about shaving....the lower half of my legs are still okay but everything else.....could be scary. (Cue Welcome To The Jungle)
However, I have gotten a nice tan, my hair is growing as are my nails. The tan also helps hide the hairiness. So that is double bonus.
Oh and of course I am getting THOSE looks a lot now. If I hold my back and take deep breaths, I can freak people out because they think I am in labor. When people ask when I am due and I say November I get that, "Oh wow" comment now too. Bite me people.
This is what 23 weeks looks like if you are 4'9" tall and expecting child #3.....please stop crying. I am really fine. Just typical pregnancy stuff that a lot of pregnant women get, regardless of anything else. Things are going good so I can not really complain.

(And I remember that bruised feeling--it sucks!)
I never looked that pretty, or got that glow you have, while pregnant. Actually, I remember a friend who I hadn't seen for a few months coming over when I was about 6 months, and she said, "you know that glow you always hear about women getting when they're pregnant? You don't have it." So sweet.
You have it. You're radiant.
