19 weeks

 

How far along: 19 weeks 2 days
Cravings: Wings (aka buffalo sauce still) and fries- my every day craving

Baby bump: Weight gain = 9 pounds and you can see it! I decided that I have been gaining weight in the abdomen but it all went out together so not a traditional "bump"
Mood: It's been a rough week. Overall tired again and I got a little virus that's taking a toll.
Looking forward to: Gender Party and my first thanksgiving as a married, contributing adult

Missing: My little Chihuahua/min-pin Clea. We had to put her down this weekend at 16 years old. Really tough timing.

Best moment: Getting wings with friends and watching football! 3 of my favorite things. Shopping with another friend with hummus- another 3 of my favorite things.

Baby purchases: None this week I don't think.
Movement: Thinking I felt something again, still not sure.
Rings on/off: on. But I sent my Tiffany ring back to get resized and a diamond replaced.  I miss it.
Belly button in/out: in Lol still working on this belly.

How far along: 18 weeks
Cravings: Buffalo sauce! On everything! And I've been having it!
Baby bump: Weight gain = 6 pounds and you can see it!
Mood: Energized!
Looking forward to: helping plan a gender reveal party! We won't know the gender until the party!
Missing: Still wine. Fancy date night at Capital grill was much cheaper/less romantic without wine. We did get a free dessert for celebrating our 17 week anniversary!
Best moment: Having work friends over, fancy date night, Halloween. Our friend's kids bday party was a blast too!
Baby purchases: We got a donated high chair ;) My compression hose came in. I ordered a new cover for our second hand/non-expired carseat. Parenting books!
Movement: Not sure yet! I try to be still and listen/feel. Trying.
Rings on/off: on.
Belly button in/out: in

17 weeks

How far along: 17 weeks 2 days- late post
Cravings: Fruit and Veggies! How awesome is that?!
Baby bump: Weight gain of 6 pounds now. And a definite bump. Poor bump still ebbs and flows with gas/bloating though.
Mood: Pretty good!
Looking forward to: Making a baby registry!
Missing: Wine. My husband had some the other night and I did not partake, but I sure wanted just a sip!
Best moment: Hearing the heartbeat at the OB's office. I think I'm ready for that gender sono. I'm still debating if I want to know or not.
Baby purchases: Lots of shopping, no purchases this week.
Movement: On my way to the OB, my jeans were too tight and I was driving, and I think I felt a little flutter. I am waiting for more to confirm if that was real or not.
Rings on/off: still on- probably forever.
Belly button in/out: in- still working on the baby bump itself!
