21 Weeks

DSC06659

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 21 Weeks

Size of baby: 10.5 inches long and weighs a quarter of a pound. He is the size of a carrot!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 7 lbs
Maternity Clothes: 100% in maternity clothes. I wear dresses ALOT. I have been wearing the belly band with my work pants, but probably only have about a week left of doing that…

Gender: BOY!!
Movement: He moves a lot. Feels like he is doing kung fu in there!  

Food Cravings: Nothing specific. I have been eating a big lunch and very small dinner.

What I miss: Cool weather! My patience….

Sleep: Sleeping great! I finally found a position that works so I sleep pretty sound these days except the 3 year old coming in to wake me up to go potty.

Symptoms: I get tired walking to my car, the printer at work….standing up!

Best Moment to this week: Trenton felt the baby move and then shook my tummy and said “Hey brudder come outta there”. He also came over to my tummy, kissed it and said (as he placed his cup of water to my belly) “Here, brudder was thirsty too”

What I am looking forward to: Ordered swatches for bedding. A rainy weekend on the couch!

FUN FACT: I measured my belly when I was first pregnant and it was 32. I decided to measure it today and it was 39! Holy smokes!
