Weekly Pregnancy Journal
How far along: 17 w, 0 d
Total weight gain/loss: + 11. Ugh. But in my defense, I haven't really gone to the bathroom in a couple of days, so that should account for something.
Maternity clothes: Yup
Stretch marks: Not yet
Sleep: Is great. I'm still sleeping on my back a lot and it's totally comfortable. I need to buy one of those triangle pillows so side-sleeping is more comfortable
Best moment this week: My doctor's appointment (which I still haven't blogged about - I've been lazy) was pretty good. It's always great to hear that everything is okay - and that I don't have Syphillis :) Ooh, and I found REALLY CUTE bee bedding that I MUST BUY. No matter how expensive it is (which it is, very). But it's absolutely adorable.
Movement: Still can't feel anything - but I want to so badly!
Cravings: Nothing really.
Aversions: None
Gender: No idea. And I really don't want to find out, but Nick really does. This is a problem.
Labour Signs: None
Belly Button in or out: In, but it's huge
What I miss: Wine. It's going to be weird doing an all-inclusive and passing on the champagne.
What I'm looking forward To: Bahamas! And next Friday's ultrasound
Weekly Wisdom: Try not to be too offended when people say "wow, you're already showing!" Wow thanks, I hadn't notice. And really I'm 4 months pregnant. It's okay that I look pregnant!
Symptoms this week: Nothing much, really. My gums are still really sore (My dentist appointment next week is sure to be brutally painful). Other than that, feeling normal. I have a cold and a sore throat as of yesterday, but that's not our little brownie's fault.
Baby's skeleton is hardening, changing from rubbery cartilage to bone, and fat is finally accumulating around it. The umbilical cord is getting thicker and stronger, and those little fingers and toes are now topped by one-of-a-kind prints.
