First Blog!














How far along? 19 weeks 3 days, almost halfway (the picture is 18 weeks 3 days)
Total weight gain/loss: +7 pounds
Maternity clothes? bottoms, yes. i have just a couple maternity shirts i'm wearing, too. for the most part i can wear my regular shirts. im wearing a lot of dresses that give me growing room to stay comfy at work.
Stretch marks? not yet...im sure my days are numbered!
Sleep: halfway between on my side and on my stomach. sometimes on my back since im not too huge yet.
Best moment this week: nothing really exciting yet
Movement: last weekend he was moving around all day long and alex got to feel it! that was really exciting. i feel him everyday now but he's been pretty lowkey.
Food cravings: chili cheese dogs, sour watermelon icees, ice cream (but it has to be coldstone creamery)
Gender: a boy! poor thing still has no name.
Labor Signs: none, and it better stay that way for a while.
Belly Button in or out? in...its usually deep and its been getting pretty shallow. im sure ill end up with an outie.
What I miss: my waist and hipbones. what are those?
What I am looking forward to: registering this weekend
Weekly Wisdom: none!
Milestones: The last big one was Alex feeling him kick.

I am feeling so much better (nausea nonexistent at this point-YAY!), but I definitely need a lot of extra sleep. i get tired really easily. and i feel bad asking people at work to help me lift things like boxes of coin but i guess i have to get the help! (thanks to placenta previa i can't lift anything or exercise...i hope and pray my placentra has moved up at my next appointment august 10th. otherwise the chances of it moving go way down and i will probably be a c-section).
