***I saw this idea on a random blog that I stumbled upon several months ago and bookmarked it so that I would remember to do it, too. It is such a cute idea to document pregnancy and all of the changes going on (with me and our little family). Here goes...
How Far Along: 17 weeks
Size of baby: about 5 inches long from head to bottom, weighs about 5 ounces
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 1 pound gained
Maternity Clothes: No
Gender: Counting down the days until we find out on November 9th!
Name: ???
Movement: I started to feel movement on the day I hit 16 weeks. It is not all the time, and definitely when I am staying still (which isn't very often!). I love feeling this little one wriggle around! There's nothing better. :)
Sleep: Not too bad. Waking up once a night (without fail!) to go to the bathroom.
What I miss: Eating without getting heartburn!
Cravings: None really so far. I used to drink sodas and sweet tea all the time but have found that I do NOT want it very often with this pregnancy. Probably a blessing.
Symptoms: Finally started feeling better two weekends ago. Still having pretty severe heartburn not relieved by prescription/non-prescription medications. Not having to take the Zofran anymore (which has been my bestfriend and constant companion for the last 11 weeks).
Best Moment this week: Pulling out of Erin's house to head home Bryson said "Mommy- you have baby in your tummy? I want a brudder." He said it with such sincerity and sweetness that my heart melted! Not even sure if he knows what a "brudder" really is- but can't wait to see my two babies together for the first time!
The baby is the size of a: turnip.
