22 weeks and I feel huge! I have the pregnancy waddle going on often, because my hips hurt so dang bad! I am trying to do yoga, and sometimes it seems to help - at other times, I fear it makes it worse! But I am trying to keep at it to keep my muscles strong. Really, the hip/lower back pain is my biggest complaint right now - it can be pretty bad when getting up from bed or the ground.
My tummy issues have pretty much subsided, and I rarely have indigestion too bad. In fact, I really need to start taking calcium again because I am not getting enough through the tums! I haven't taken more then two since I've been home.
I feel the baby move everyday now, and often from the outside, too, but still pretty low. Only Grant has felt the movement also so far.

How your baby's growing:
At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
