17 Week Pregnancy Update - Baby #2!

How far along?  
17 Weeks + 4 days

Total weight gain/measurements: 
Ive been continuously losing weight and then slowly gaining it back since I got pregnant.. I'm currently 1 lb heavier then I was at my first prenatal appointment (at 9 weeks)... So not much change there. 

Maternity clothes:  
Nope

Stretch marks: 
No new ones

Sleep: 
I have to wake up to pee a couple times a night... & Hunter has been having a bit of a hard time sleeping lately, so that has been affecting my sleep greatly... 

Best moment this week: 
The first big baby movement happened today!  
& when my mom showed me the adorable project she's working on for the gender reveal! 

Miss anything? 
My family :( Dying to go home!

Movement: 
Felt little flutters since maybe 13 weeks... But today was the first solid kick where I was like "Oh yes.. that was definitely my baby!"

Food cravings: 
Sandwiches. I could eat a variety of sandwiches and salads all day and be the happiest kid. I'm REALLY craving a Spicy Italian on cheese bread from Subway though. 

Anything making you queasy or sick? 
I'm still nauseas every single morning. I throw up usually once a day... but sometimes I do get a bit nauseas in the evenings too. 

Gender:  
Crossing our fingers for a girl! 7 more days until the ultrasound! 

Labour signs:  
None

Symptoms:  
Starting to not be able to do up the button on a lot of my pants... Haha! 
Still have morning sickness.
I get light headed and dizzy sometimes.. and cramps in my legs... but I think I can put that on the fact that I haven't been drinking enough water lately. When you go pee 37 times before lunch time, you don't get too eager to drink MORE water... Haha

Belly button in or out? 
In but I have a feeling its going to pop out sooner then my first pregnancy

Happy or moody most of the time: 
Moody as all hell. So emotional, so stressed, so everything. Plus with the heat on top of it all, and lack of sleep. Oy. 

Looking forward to: 
Next week! We have our ultrasound on Wednesday!!!! 
& then my wonderful friend Leila and her husband are arriving that weekend for their vacation! (Which I'm going to try include myself in at all times... hahah :))

13 Weeks Pregnancy Update - Baby #2!

How far along?  
13 Weeks 

Total weight gain:
Ive been losing and gaining since I got pregnant.. So I'm not too sure what my weight is now in comparison to when I got pregnant. 

Maternity clothes:  
Still wearing my regular clothes, and probably will be for awhile. I lost weight before I got pregnant, and lost another 8 lbs while being pregnant, so all my clothes have a bit of wiggle room now. I still plan on buying some maternity leggings, at least 1 pair of jeans, and a couple tank tops. Those were the things I needed the most last time around! 

Stretch marks: 
Nothing new yet!

Sleep: 
I wish I could sleep all day. If I didn’t already have a baby to take care of, I would nap at 11am and 4pm. I get so exhausted right around those times. 

Best moment this week: 
Bo and I made a decision about our future & we’re VERY excited about it!!

Miss anything? 
Alcohol sometimes.. and mostly because it’s summer…. There’s nothing like having a nice cold drink on a hot summer day! 

Movement: 
I swear I felt movement! I don’t know if it is, because I’m still in my first trimester… But I swear it was the baby!

Food cravings: 
Mozza sticks! I eat mozza sticks more often then Id like to admit. Also, pickles. Mmmmm

Anything making you queasy or sick? 
Ever since I went to the emergency room a few weeks ago, my nausea has been at an all time low! I get sick once in the morning, and then I’m good for the rest of the day. So much more tolerable then the all day, everyday sickness I was experiencing. 
The seafood & meat section in the grocery store makes my stomach turn. 

Gender:  
I’ll know in under 6 weeks! But mothers intuition tells me I’m carrying our baby girl!

Labour signs:  
No

Symptoms:  
Just a little bit of nausea first thing in the morning. 
Glowing skin! My skin has never looked better! 
Still so fatigued.

Belly button in or out? 
In

Happy or moody most of the time: 
Lately, happy! 

Looking forward to: 
The gender ultrasound even though its over a month away! & then possibly announcing the name, if we are in fact, having a girl!
