19 Weeks

How Far Along:

19 Weeks 3 Days

How Big is Baby:

Size of the Average Mango

Average size: 6.0 inches, 8.5 oz, however at the ultrasound baby was weighing in at 9oz...

Weight Gain:

 8  lbs

Maternity clothes:

A few here and there.  Just depends on the day and how the tummy is feeling.  Went shopping for some new jeans, but didn't see any I liked or wanted to try.  

Sleep:

Still propping up at the beginning, but sleeping much better.  It is marvelous!!!

 

Best moment this week:

Having an extra day off to spend with the family and going to see Beauty and the Beast with Amelia.   We stayed until her popcorn ran out!

 

Food Cravings:

Nothing in general. 

 

Foods I Can't Stand: Deer Meat makes me want to VOMIT...end of story.

Movement:

Really picking up the pace.  Moving lots in the late evening when I sit down/slow down.  I can feel a knot where baby is which is really neat. 

What I miss:

My favorite pair of jeans.....they were retired this past week.

 

What I am looking forward to:

Just enjoying day to day.

Milestones:

Almost half way!!!

Working on My Fitness:

Last week I ran Sunday, Monday and Tuesday...it was freezing Wednesday - Friday and then I did a 10k on Saturday.  I walked with a friend who is preggo on Sunday and we did almost 5 miles in a little over an hour.  My calves want to explode....someone explain that one.   Then ran on Monday a miserable 2 miles.  

15 Weeks

So I stole this from a friend of mine who is also expecting.  She is about 5 weeks ahead of me and due in April with a Baby Boy.

She does a weekly update and answers some of the same questions.  Since I am super busy these days, but still want to have some documentation that I was pregnant!

So here goes....I promise to get a belly pic with the next update!

How Far Along:    15 Weeks 4 days

Weight Gain: 3  lbs

Maternity clothes: not quite, but the day is coming.  I think my Bella band will be getting some use in the next few weeks (especially with the Holidays)

Sleep: I can make the trip to the bathroom in my sleep…ha!  I am getting up every three to four hours to pee!!! Well last night only twice

Best moment this week: Seeing Amelia point to my belly after someone told her there was a baby in there, then lifting my shirt, looking around and telling me she didn’t see it!!!

Food Cravings: I seriously put a hurt on some Chicken Wings last week.  Nothing in particular. 

Movement: Nope, not yet. 

What I miss: A really tall, frosty, beer or a nice glass of wine…I sound like an alcoholic. 

What I am looking forward to: Just taking this pregnancy in stride and enjoying it.   I go back to the Dr. on Friday so that is always exciting.

Milestones: I am over the “I want to puke everywhere and I could fall asleep standing up phase” and really am feeling great.
