How far along? 17
weeks
Total Weight Gain: This past week -1 lb, Total -3 lbs, I still haven’t been able
to gain…not weight anyways. My belly size has increased by over 2 inches.
Maternity Clothes: Not
yet, I’ve started thinking about shopping for some jeans though.
Continuing Symptoms: Body
acne, sore breasts, veins on chest are more noticeable, I’m generally just
feeling good. I do have some other
symptoms that some people may not care to read about (various breast changes,
or things such as darkening hair on my stomach.. )
New Symptoms: Nothing
really new, not sure if I’ve felt any movement yet.
Sleep: There
were a couple of nights this week where I had dreams about our big ultrasound
and I woke up too excited to go back to sleep.
In one of the dreams we were having a girl, in the other we were having
a boy. Recently I had a bit of a back
ache while sleeping, and felt the need to tuck a blanket under my barely there
belly.
Cravings/Aversions: Craving
a lot more sweets this week: pancakes, French toast, smores. And one non-sweet, Cheetos puffs.
Stretch Marks: I
don’t think so.
Special Moments: We
started subtly hinting about the pregnancy on facebook, it’s been funny getting
people’s reactions. We should fully
announce in the next day or so. I’m
hoping to get people to take the gender poll.

Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or
off? On.
I think I generally gained about 5 pounds by 20 weeks. I gained bunches around 7 to 9 months LOL. Sounds like your doing great! I read that they now make "pregnancy pillows", they didn't make these when I was pregnant LOL. When I was pregnant with you I craved cheetos, but I also liked orange soda with them, funny combo. I also thought it was funny to see peoples reactions on facebook (to your pregnancy). I think your poll is a fun idea. Can you see who votes or just the responses? Just curious. Have a wonderful week! Don't get arrested stalking mailmen LOL.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I haven't gained any weight, in fact I lost weight. I weigh 3 lbs less now than before pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteI cannot see who votes, but I see the number of votes. However, I have only had 5 votes, so I know who voted what. :)
