17 Week Update

How far along? 17 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: About the same
Maternity clothes? I am starting to wear the belly band over my pants.
Sleep: Yes I sleep. I have really crazy dreams and wake up early on my own.
Best moment this past week: Cherilyn's super fun wedding shower.
Movement: Hopefully I'll be able to feel movement within the next couple of weeks.
Food cravings: This week I craved Chick Fil A fries dipped in ice cream. I got it. :)
Gender: Boy or girl
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: Warmth
What I am looking forward to: We have a doctor's appointment tomorrow!
Weekly Wisdom: Just keep eating.
Milestones: This may sound a little weird but I took my belly button ring out today and now I feel like I'm missing a body part.

And now the baby is...

The size of my open palm. He or she is 5 inches and 5 or 6 ounces, about the same size as an onion or turnip. There is a harder skeleton and he or she is starting to learn to suck.

Updates on the belly:

Sometimes my belly is really big to me, but sometimes I don't look pregnant at all. It's pretty weird. In any case, I look pregnant in both of the pictures.

Picture 1 is at 15 weeks. Picture 2 is at 17 weeks.





Our doctor appointment is tomorrow so I'll probably do another update about what the doctor says.
