Baby Update: 17 Weeks
Pregnancy Highlights from this week:
How far along? 17 weeks
Size of the baby? About the size of turnip, 5 inches
Maternity Clothes? Maternity jeans and a maternity top. I can still wear most of my regular shirts but I think it will be maternity jeans and leggings and dresses from here on out. Im not gonna lie. . .maternity jeans are kind of awesome!
Gender? Don't know yet but we find out on March 29th and can't WAIT!!!! I'm pretty sure I know what it is but could be wrong ;-) Would be happy either way as long as they are healthy!
Movement? Can't feel anything yet but hopefully in the next few weeks.
Sleep? I am sleeping pretty well right now. Still very tired at night so no trouble at all falling asleep!
Cravings? No real cravings but this week I have been eating a lot of green grapes and chocolate milk.
Symptoms? This week I felt pretty good. Thank goodness! I think I have passed the nausea phase thank goodness. I had a really bad migraine on Friday night and all I could do was go to bed. Hopefully this won't be a regular occurrence.
What I miss? Still miss Sushi and diet Dr. Pepper
Milestones? Another week down!
What I am nervous about? I am not really nervous about anything right now. I am very anxious for our appointment on the 29th. This is the appointment where they will do the anatomy scan to make sure the baby is growing properly and we will also find out the gender that day. Just praying every day that our sweet baby is healthy!!
What I'm excited about? Finding out the gender and getting to go shop for the baby!
We bought some more diapers this week. We figured we are going to need lots of them so may as well start stocking up :-) We found a really good deal at Target so we have a bunch now. Can't wait to buy something other than diapers for the sweet babe!!
And now for the bump. . I am starting to feel really large. I know I am going to look back in 3 months and laugh for thinking I was big at this point but I feel big now. . And maybe one of these days I will actually have my hair fixed and make up on!
So I am just now catching up on your blog - congratulations to you and Grant! Glad to hear you are feeling better and don't deprive yourself of sushi. Go eat some edamame and treat yourself to a sweet potato roll or shrimp tempura roll. Those were always my go to sushi treats while pregnant.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Meredith! That sounds so good! I will definitely do that. We are excited and really looking forward to finding out the sex in a couple of weeks! Hope you all are doing well. I always enjoy seeing pictures of your girls on Facebook. They are so pretty!
