17 Weeks

Another mirror selfie. I've been really bad at having Jon take pictures! I'll get better...maybe. Excuse the toddler legs in the mirror, oh and the really dirty mirro! :) 

How far along? 17 weeks 

Baby J Jr. is as big as: An onion- 5.1 inches and 5.9 ounces {bump.com} 

Total weight gain: 3lbs

Maternity clothes? Kinda. I can wear all my jeans still, but since I have maternity jeans, I've wore them a couple times. My stomach isn't quite big enough to hold up the big stretchy stomach part but they're still comfortable and I'll rock them while I have an excuse too! :) 

Stretch marks? None yet- fingers crossed. 

Sleep: Finally sleeping better. I still get restless legs here and there but nothing that little lotion and peace and calming oil mixed can't handle! 

Best moment this week: Technically it was last week, but we heard the heartbeat again. Nice and strong sitting at 161. Cooper was 147 at 16 weeks.. perhaps a girl? 

Miss Anything? Not a thing. I even gave up pop and sweets again for this pregnancy and I really haven't wanted either of them! 

Movement: Yes! I feel little flutters. Mostly at night when we're laying in bed. I love it! :) 

Food cravings: Nothing really. BBQ sounded good last week, got my fix, and that's out the window. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope. I'm back to where I can eat anything and everything. 

Gender: March 26th 

Labor Signs: sure hope not!

Symptoms: I've been feeling really good! I do have some acid reflux here and there and also get tired quickly. Mixture of pregnancy and chasing an overly active toddler around! 

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On- not holding my breath with keeping them on all pregnancy. I swell in the summer time as it is, let along pregnant. We shall see! :) 

Happy or Moody most of the time: Tired ;) happy, anxious, moody, all the above. 

Looking forward to: Finding out the sex so I can 1. See we have a healthy baby growing and 2. Start planning a nursery! 

Cooper moment: We went and visited a friend who just had a baby yesterday and Coop was SO incredibly sweet. He would sit by me and lean over and kiss baby James. At one point he even grabbed his paci and brought it over to him. I am REALLY hoping this is how he acts when his little brother or sister comes. I'm sure once he realizes its "not going away" it won't be so sweet. For now, I can dream! :)
