17 weeks

17 Week Survey

How Far Along: 17 weeks!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I think I'm up 12 pound total.

How Big is Baby: ~5 inches

Maternity Clothes: Exclusively maternity for pants. I am going shopping this weekend for some new shirts.

Stretch Marks: Nothing new. However, I am sporting some lovely blue & green veins on my stomach.

Sleep: Insomnia has definitely set in. I would give anything to have the ability to sleep all day that I had in the 1st tri.

Best Moment this Week: S came home with presents for the baby. He got a Disney onesie and a small stuffed Mickey Mouse, because "every kid needs a Mickey Mouse." I love that man so much.

Movement: None, but I am definitely analyzing every stomach growl wondering if it's the baby.

Food Cravings: I have the opposite...nothing sounds appealing to me right now.

Gender: Since I can't stop looking at boy items, probably a girl :)

Labor Signs: No, thank God.

Belly Button In/Out: In, but I feel like it's shallower than it used to be.

Symptoms: Lots of lower back pain. Heartburn is not as bad as it once was. Have I mentioned the hiccups? I have had hiccups for the past 13 weeks. Let me tell you how awesome that is.

What I am Looking Forward to: My OB appt on Monday and hopefully hearing Patches' heartbeat again.

Weekly Wisdom: Just when you think the pregnancy is going slowly, you're 17 weeks!

Milestones: Not really a milestone, but I think I am going to take my first belly pic today.
