Baby Talk- 17 weeks

17 Weeks

I am really closer 18 weeks. I roll over to the next week on Saturdays. Oh well, at least I am getting them posted during the actual week.  

 

 

 

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 17 weeks

Size of baby: about the size/weight of a turnip

Total Weight Gain/Loss: up 3 lbs per Dr. office, I haven't stepped on my scale since. :o

Clothes: Regular clothes. I am having to wear longer shirts and my pants are starting to get more and more uncomfortable, so it won't be long. I did pull out a couple maternity shirts the other day.

Gender: scheduled to find out Feb 14

Movement: A little this week when laying down. Nothing regular or consistent, just a little here and there. 

Sleep:  I am sleeping pretty good. I wake up several times, but usually go right back to sleep.

What I miss: energy. I keep expecting my energy to come back, but it hasn't. I am not exhausted, but just don't have as much energy as I expected to by this point.

Cravings: nothing really 

Symptoms: sinus headaches, some heartburn and reflux after eating, and a little fatigue. I have a few other symptoms if I don't drink enough water, so I am trying to keep that under control.

Best Moment this week: Brady's birthday party and spending a lot of sweet time with Brady. He has been really sweet the past few weeks. I have this overwhelming desire to just sit and snuggle with him as much as possible.

Also, feeling baby move for sure.

What am I looking forward to: The ultrasound on Valentines Day. It will be here before I know it!
