19 Weeks



How Far Along: 19 weeks

Size of Baby: 8 1/2 ounces 6 inches from head to cute little butt.

Maternity Clothes: Yes! Some of my non-maternity tops are a little tight but they still fit but the majority are maternity.

Weight Gain: None! But I'm definitely eating a lot!

Belly: I think I may have started to POP! Me in my scrubs.

Stretch Marks: Nope! Lotion lotion lotion...so itchy!

Sleep: No more stomach sleeping. I am still able to sleep on my back though.

Best Moment of the Week:
Finally being able to see what we are having! Or at least guess at it! I will share pics of the baby I took at work but no announcement on the sex yet until my official ultrasound!

Movement: Yes! Not all the time but I'm starting to be able to feel baby when I'm standing not just sitting still.


Symptoms: I feel bloated a lot. I've felt a little faintish at times. In fact at work I had to ask a nurse to watch my patient because the world around me was starting to sound strange...eeee! Just needed some food! Also round ligament pain. (achiness in my pelvis) And I feel like I'm loosing my mind sometimes. Prego-brain for sure!

Food Cravings: Coke-a-Cola Classic! Ice cream.

What I Miss: Same as before wine and hot tubing!

What I'm Looking Forward To: My OB appointment tomorrow and my official ultrasound.

Milestones: Nothing I can think off....
Emotions: I've felt good lately!

Of course I have to share pics of Junebug...


Hopefully I can share what we're having next week!

17 weeks 3 days

So I'm stealing this from another blog since I thought it was a cute idea and a great concise way to track pregnancy events.

How Far Along: 17 weeks 3 days

Size of Baby: 5 inches from head to butt. 5 ounces

Maternity Clothes: Yes! I think I started wearing maternity jeans around 12 weeks. It just started getting uncomfortable sitting. I wear some maternity tops but I don't have to.

Weight Gain: None! In fact I may even be down a few pounds. I eat a lot too!

Belly: No belly pic this week!

Stretch Marks: Nope! And I hope it stays that way :)

Sleep: Up until a few weeks ago I was sleeping 12 hours a day/night. Now its more like 10 hours. No problems there yet!

Best Moment of the Week: Scanning myself at work and seeing Junebug sitting with its legs crossed moving all around!

Movement: I have just started to feel little movements which is another highlight of the week! I can't wait until Josh can feel them too!

Symptoms: No more morning sickness. Only occasional nausea. I still get headaches a lot and I have to eat frequently to keep from getting shaky.

Food Cravings: It changes hourly. I don't crave anything weird, only things I see on TV or happen to think of. Recently its been mac and cheese, cheese ale soup from Hop Cat, twix, coffee and a milkshake. Sadly I've only had coffee from that list.

What I Miss: WINE! With the holidays it was so hard to watch everyone enjoying drinks together. Its definitely worth missing out on but I do miss me some sangria!

What I'm Looking Forward To: Finding out what we are having. Junebug just needs to stop trying to hide it from me! Next ultrasound should be in about 3 weeks!

Milestones: Feeling less sick and tired. Also starting to feel baby moving!

Emotions: I have been very irritable with this pregnancy so far. I think it has a lot to do with not feeling good. But as I've been feeling better that's been getting better as well. Also I find I cry easy with movies and TV.
