Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along:17 Weeks!
Total Weight Gain: 6 lbs.
Maternity Clothes:Yep, I look much more "pregnant" than rolly poly with the belly band and maternity shirts. My dress pants need the belly band, but the maternity pants were just too big and frumpy looking. My girlfriend asked me one day when I had them on, "what is up with my pants"! We're really close and I laughed and said do you mean, "what in the hell are you wearing"? She said ya...we laughed:) I went back to the band:) My size W28/L31 jeans still fit though! This baby is so high my lower belly is about the same. When I lay on my back and use the doppler to listen to him there is this big bulge way up by my belly button and my lower belly is almost flat. This baby is going to carry high so I'm prepping for the heartburn to start sooner than last time and the rib kicks, which I never had with Svea.
Best Moment this week: Finding out our little baby is a he...a beautiful baby boy! His profile is SO similar to his sisters. It'll be fun to see how much they look like each other.
Gender:Yep, I was right! All boy!
Movement: Here and there...little flutters that make me smile:)
Food Craving: Cheerios and more cheerios! Gotta have a bowl or two before bed!
What I miss: Nothing, except maybe my stellar immune system. I've started my fourth cold.
Sleep: Good with some crazy weird dreams!
What we are looking forward to: Feeling more consistent movement
Symptoms:tired, the gagging is easing up a bit, peeing a lot, and teenage acne....yikes..this little boy's testosterone is doing a number on my skin:)
