Week 17

How far along? 17 weeks
Size of baby? Onion (5.1 inches long, weighs 5.9 ounces)
Maternity clothes? I'm wearing my medium sized shirts to give myself some more breathing room. I'm in the awkward in between stage so I'm not liking the feeling of fitted shirts. I also bought some maternity shorts a few weeks ago because of a good deal, but I busted them out and decided to wear them this week (mostly because we went out of town and I wanted more options while on vacation). They fit great so I think I'll be sporting them for the rest of the pregnancy :)
Have you started to show yet? Yes, close friends and family are starting to notice and comment on the little baby bump!
Sleep? Great!
Movement? Not yet
Food cravings? No
Anything making you queasy or sick? No :)
Symptoms? Nothing this week
Looking forward to? Feeling the baby move and our first ultrasound! We were finally able to schedule it and I can't wait to see the baby! And we should be able to find out the gender too!! It's not for another 2-3 weeks though so hold tight!
Best moment this week? Jimbo and I took a mini vacation to Charleston for Memorial Day Weekend. It was so wonderful!! The city is beautiful, the food was good, and we had so much fun with each other. Many memories made :) Also, when we got back from the weekend, we had an OB appointment and the baby's heartbeat is still strong and was much easier to find this time. It was 158 and my abdomen is measuring right on track. Momma was told to eat more and add in some shakes so that I can put on some more weight. It's not a huge deal and who doesn't like to hear they can and should eat more? :)
Fun Fact about baby? The rubbery cartilage is turning into bone, sweat glands are forming, it can move it's joints, and the umbilical cord is getting stronger and thicker. The baby can now hear us talking to him/her!
Gender? Hopefully we'll know in a couple of weeks!
