I know, it doesn’t look like I’m pregnant but I’m starting to feel pregnant. I’m going to start taking pictures every week or two so everyone can see how our little bambino is growing. This week the baby is a size of an avocado.
Total Weight Gain: I’ve gained three pounds and am finally at the weight I was prior to finding out I was pregnant. I’m trying to keep up with some kind of workout schedule but some weeks are better than others. I’m also feeling pregnant and looking just a little bit pregnant too. Most people wouldn’t be able to tell but looking in the mirror I can most definitely see a little bump and am noticing a tightness in my clothes that weren’t there before. I’m still wearing regular clothes.
Gender: I’m getting very excited to know whether we’re having a girl or boy and can’t wait for our next appointment because of this very reason. My friends will ask if we’re finding out the sex and my response is, “Yes! I’ve waited 20 weeks to find out and that’s most definitely enough for me!” I applaud those who are able to wait but I’m excited to start decorating the baby’s room and purchase those cute little blue or pink outfits.
Sleep: I’m sleeping okay, although some nights are better than others. I most definitely wake up at at least once in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. It’s crazy to think how much I have to go to the bathroom with this baby pushing up against my bladder.
Movement: I haven’t felt any movement yet even though the baby books say that at this point I might start to feel something. The books say that at this point the baby might be moving and I could think it’s just gas or indigestion.
Best moment this week: We had another doctor’s appointment and got to hear the heart beat again. I never thought I’d be so anxious to hear that little heartbeat at every appointment but I am and count down each week to my next doctor’s appointment so that I can hear it again.
Missing Anything: I’m missing and have been since I found out that I was pregnant some of my favorite foods like unpasterized cheese, sushi, deli meats, and oh do I miss wine.
