19 Weeks

Getting bigger!

 I have to share the below picture...first of all I made T take about 5 pictures of my bare belly this week. My hair looked SO flat down because I had flat ironed it pin straight the night before. After seeing my pictures, I cringed, told him to hold still and went to grab a hair elastic and put my hair in a pony tail.  The difference in size of my belly from the picture above to this picture looks crazy to me!! I think this picture makes me look HUGE! I cannot even imagine how big my belly is going to get over the next 20 weeks!

1. How Far Along? 19w4d

2. Total Weight Gain/Loss? 10lbs.

3. Maternity Clothes? Maternity jeans and regular shirts. 

4. Gender? GIRL! :-)

5. Movement? Definitely feeling little flutters and kicks. Baby Girl C is very active when I'm sitting or laying down. When I first wake up in the morning and lay in bed I can really feel her. Same goes for after I eat, and at night when I'm laying on the couch. I cannot wait for T to be able to feel her from the outside.

6. Sleep? I've been sleeping through the night, but my chest is so sore when I wake up.  I think I may start sleeping in a sports bra to see if that helps.

7. What I miss? Dressing myself definitely stinks. I cannot wait until I can wear the spring/summer stuff that my cousin handed-me-down.

8. Cravings? No real cravings that I can think of this week. Still doing the cereal thing.

9. Symptoms? I'm starting to get really achy down under my belly button where my uterus is. It's rock hard and is putting pressure down below. My hips are starting to get achy too.

10. Best moment this week? It's a tie between finding out Baby Girl's gender and feeling her move!
