It's week 17!! We are almost half way there... I'm starting to show a little bit, and my pants don't fit. :) That seems to be the trend here lately! Not much new is happening. Tomorrow is our 4 month appointment. Hopefully, my uterus has grown to 1.5 inches below my belly button, and we get to hear baby's heartbeat again!! That is the most exciting sound I've ever heard... I love each little beat.
Next week is the big week! We'll find out if we will welcome a son or daughter in March! When I made the appointment in August, I told myself the story of the first grading period... "oh, we lose the first week, and before I know it, it'll be progress report time. Then the grading period just flies and October 5 will not seem too far away." I'm great a lying to myself... honestly, I'm truly gifted in this area. I DON'T THINK OCTOBER 4 WILL EVER COME AROUND! Nine days is such torture... complete and utter torture, but my mama will be here in 8 days, so that'll give me something to look forward to in the meantime.
Here's the week 17 breakdown:
Week: 17
Weight Gain: 7 lbs or so
Maternity Clothes: Not yet, but I'm getting close to needing something in the pants department. I'm holding out though!
Sleep: Depends on how thirsty I am before bed.
Best Moment this Week: Tomorrow, we hear sweetpea's heartbeat!
Cravings: Macaroni and Cheese--the gross, cheap kind that use the powdery yellow cheese. Ick, but oh my gosh, so yummy!
Turn-offs: Pasta sauce... still pasta sauce.
Gender: Still a surprise, but only for 9 more days!!!!!
Baby's Movement: I haven't felt the flutter yet, but I'm anxiously waiting!
Happy or Moody: Moody... this week, I've been rather moody.
Looking Forward to: October 5!!!
