17 Weeks

How far along? 17 weeks

Total weight gain:Up 1/2 pound.

Maternity clothes? When I wear a non-maternity shirt I get tons of comments about how big I look...I need more maternity tops! 

Stretch marks? None yet.

Sleep: It was really good this week. 

Best moment this week: Feeling the baby move for the first time!

Miss Anything? Being able to easily plan take to work lunches.  With lunch meat being out it's getting difficult and I end up buying my lunch more than I should.

Movement: Sunday night we went to bed knowing it was going to rain overnight.  Well the weather brought lots of wind too and our shutters banged into the windows a little.  Sperry woke up and was barking very loud and pretty crazy.  Bryan finally got him to stop so we could go back to sleep.  A few minutes later I realized that I had felt these little popping movements that felt like popcorn popping in my lower abdomen.  It was definitely the baby moving.  I have felt tiny movements everyday since then especially in the mornings.  I haven't been able to feel the movements from the outside of my body so Bryan hasn't gotten to feel it yet, but hopefully soon.

Food cravings: I really wanted sushi the other day...it was just meh.  Bryan said we can go get oysters tomorrow so that's exciting and he knows I've been craving those pretty much throughout the pregnancy. 

Food aversions: Peanut butter is disgusting. I haven't gotten close enough to eggs to see if I still hate them.

Gender: Boy...or girl!

Labor Signs: Nope. 

Symptoms: I've been pretty symptom free.  The second trimester is awesome.

Belly Button in or out? In and Bryan keeps reminding me that it is still getting shallow.

Wedding rings on or off? On. 

Looking forward to? Really good food coming up this week for Thanksgiving!
