I decided that every week was too much commitment for me - so I am going to do this every month. I just went to the doc on Tuesday and here are the results.
Pregnancy Play-by-Play
How Far Along: 17 Weeks
Size of baby: Baby Garrison or Lou Lu (still don't know girl/boy) is as big as a baked potaot
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Although I feel like a house, I have only gained 4 pounds...I know I couldn't believe it either.
Maternity Clothes: I continue to wear anything with an elastic waistband. I just got a sweet pair of velour sweatpants. They are pretty awesome.
Gender: January 31st is the big day!
Movement: Still no movement - probably next month.
Sleep: Sleeo is actually getting much better, my back doesn't hurt aas bad, so Andy gets a repreave from the 5 extra pillows in bed with us.
Cravings: Mexican!! And french fries.
Symptoms: Doing much better with the symptoms. Still pretty tired and feeling very weepy in the last week or so - I cried like a big baby at some commercial about a kid in a wheelchair getting to drive in a soapbox derby - bizarre. Hopefully that passes soon.
Best Moment this week: Best moment was again hearing the heartbeat. Last time they couldn't find it and I had to have an ultrasound. Talk about freaking out - I am pretty sure I had a minor heart attack. But this time, they got it right away and it was right on target at 149. I liked that I had only gained 4 pounds too. :)
