17 Week Bumpdate

The last few weeks have been a bit crazy. I had a really bad fall down some icy stairs and luckily had my doctors appointment the next day so I was able to hear the heart beat and everything and was calmed. I've been having awful ligament stretching and last night was the WORST! It was so painful I was close to tears. Clearly labor is going show even more that my tolerance for pain is nonexistent. But through it all I know I'm so blessed and am so happy to be carrying this little human! 


How Far Along:
17 weeks and 2 days

Size of baby:  
Apparently the size of a tangy pomegranate. Or a turnip. The little peanut is 5 inches and weighs 5-5.9oz. :) 

Total Weight Gain:
I forgot to weigh myself this morning and seeing as it's thanksgiving today's weight may not be accurate. I'll save that for next week ;)

Stretch Marks:  Still just a few on my armpits that are disappearing. My belly and waist are safe for now. 

Maternity Clothes:
Still none! I've looked but can't bring to buy myself some because I just look chubby instead of pregnant right now lol. 

Gender: 
We get to find out December 18th! We are having a Christmas-themed gender reveal party. If you want to come please tell me so I can invite you!! Everyone is welcome :) 

Movement:  This child is an acrobat of some sort. And super speedy. I will feel movement on my left then a minute later I will feel a strong kick on my right! Guess the little peanut is trying to stay active since heaven knows I haven't been doing a good job of it! 

Belly Button in or out?:
Still an innie. No sight of the bottom yet. It's like a never ending canyon. 

Sleep: 
I've been sleeping fine. I wake up on my back every time I wake up though which is weird because I have NEVER been a back sleeper, always a side or stomach sleeper. So I flip back over onto my side!

What I miss: Infrequent head aches... I'm getting them a ton these days. 

Food Cravings:
Flaming Hot Cheetos with lime. They help my nausea a ton!

Food Aversions:  Home cooked chicken is still bad, not much else though. 

Nausea:
Nights are still the worst but days I'm totally fine as long as I have food in me. 

Moody/Happy?
Still a bit snappy! 

What I’m looking forward to:
Finding out the Gender and not having to keep saying "it"!!! 

Baby Bump: 17 weeks 3 days:

15 week Bumpdate



I have been blog stalking and decided to throw some different questions in this week! :) baby and I are doing great, Bryce is extremely excited to be able to feel movement in a few weeks, and we are so happy to be so blessed to have our first little one on the way!! :)

How Far Along:
15 weeks and 3 days! 


Size of baby: 
Hass Avocado... Whatever that is. Baby is 4.5 inches :) on my other app it says baby is the size of a Naval Orange. So many different types of fruits out there. 


Total Weight Gain:
Weighing myself in the morning before eating (which is what I did the second I found out I was pregunta), I haven't gained any weight yet. I'm sure I'll be packing on the pounds, I'm just losing muscle and gaining weight so I don't notice!


Stretch Marks:  None, just marks on my armpits still. 

Maternity Clothes:
None yet.  I almost bought a cute Packers maternity shirt (duh) but was nervous it fit too well on the top and wouldn't grow well lol. 


Gender: 
Not a clue! People as far along as me are finding out but we won't know for awhile! Week before Christmas sounds like the time. 

Movement:  Yes! Today it was the strongest I have felt (started feeling about a week ago, and I'm not crazy, it isn't gas.) but it totally felt like a little fish was in there! I was bent over and I yelped a little because it was so strong and caught me off guard! 

Belly Button in or out?:
Still an innie. My belly button is a bottomless pit so I am unsure when it'll poke out!

Sleep: 
Besides my terrible dreams about Bryce "breaking up with me", I've been sleeping well. The other night I literally woke up in tears because in my dream Bryce packed up all my stuff and told me he sorted out another place for me to live. It seemed so real that I was so shaken up. Hate those dreams. He had to snuggle me for awhile before I could sleep again hahaha

What I miss:  Not wondering if every pain I get is signifying something being wrong. 

Food Cravings:
I literally crave subway every day. Every. Single. Day. It's so bad. I also crave an in n out burger with the spread from a cold packet. Nom. 


Food Aversions:  Home cooked chicken is still bad, and red meats aren't wonderful but not unbearable. 

Nausea:
I stopped taking unisom twice a day and now take it once at night every few days. The nights are the worst. But still I feel sooo much better. 


Moody/Happy?
I get a little bit snappy, and have a short temper, but I'm also usually pretty happy. Especially being around Bryce :) 

What I’m looking forward to:
My appointment next week! I just want to hear the little peanut's heartbeat and have Bryce be able to hear it! :) 


Baby Bump: 15 weeks 3 days
