How far along: 17 weeks
Size of baby: A sweet potato
Total weight gain/loss: 1 pound!
Maternity clothes: Yes. These stretchy pants are the greatest.... jeans have never been this comfortable.
Stretch marks: Nope, but I'm just starting to show. I lather coconut oil all over every day, hope it helps... but i've heard it's all genetic.
Sleep: It used to be horrible, BUT Shane got me a pregnancy pillow- heaven on earth!
Best moment(s) last week: starting to feel baby flutters!
Movement: The past couple of days it feels like there is a butterfly in my stomach. So, I say I'm feeling flutters, but who knows.
Food cravings: Yuck, food. My sickness has gotten better, although red meat still makes me dry heave, even if I see it on a commercial.
Gender: We find out January 10th! Every day I feel like the baby is something different. I can't wait to stop calling the baby "it"
Belly button - in or out: In.
What I miss: Not feeling sick, being able to move around. Bed rest is boring, especially since I'm starting to feel better.
What I am looking forward to: Being done with Bed rest!!! Who knows when that will happen.
Milestones: I'm well into the second trimester! YAY!
Love it! ...except that you're still on bed rest. I hope you can be done with that soon, too! Can't wait to see what you're having... so exciting!! :)
ReplyDeleteHooray! You are the cutest! I didn't get stretch marks until the last few weeks of my pregnancy. Maybe because that's when the baby dropped? I got Bio Oil from my sister-in-law and it works really well to fade stretch marks.
ReplyDeleteooo thanks! I didn't know they could fade- that's good! I'm thinking that's what will happen to me. Those last couple of weeks they'll just come.
