21 weeks

How far along?  21 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: about 11 pounds
Sleep:  Good
Best moment this week:  Finding out we are having a girl!  I cried the moment the ultrasound started..and cried even more when they said it was a little girl growing in there :)  They said she is about 5 days smaller than would be expected for 20 weeks, so she may be a few days late.  Other than that, she looks 100% healthy!
Movement: Yes, she is starting to move more each day.  Sean has even been able to feel her moving and I think it freaks him out.  The 2x he has felt her move he jumps away when she moves.
Symptoms: Hungry and starting to notice my stomach is bigger and I get worn out easier. 
Food cravings:  Nothing special.
Food aversions: None
Gender:  Girl
Labor Signs:  Nope
Belly Button in or out?  In, but it's starting to go out a little.
What I miss: Really wish I could have a glass of wine and sushi on some days.
What I am looking forward to: Kayla was not cooperative for a few pictures on the ultrasound so we get to go back and have another one next month!  She would not show us her face or bladder.
Milestones:  Finding out the gender and we went shopping for a coming home outfit and also found a great deal on a dress for Kayla for Christmas.  We couldn't pass it up at $10 for a $42 dress!  We know it's only May but that's ok :)

Sleep:  OK, but starting to get tired of having to sleep on my side.  My ribs have started hurting.
Best moment this week: Feeling the baby move last Thursday and really knowing it was the baby and not just bubbles in my stomach
Movement: Yes once or twice a day I usually feel a few pokes
Symptoms: Still hungry all the time and my ribs felt like they were being ripped apart last week and it was very painful.  Luckily that only lasted for 2 days.
Food cravings:  Nothing special.
Food aversions: None
Gender:  We find out Thursday!
Labor Signs:  Nope
Belly Button in or out?  In, although my belly is getting bigger.

What I am looking forward to: Our anatomy scan on the 26th.
Milestones:  Feeling the baby move for the first time

Week 17

It's been awhile since I have updated the blog.  Things have been great the last few weeks.  Sean and I have heard the baby's heartbeat at my last 2 appointments and that was one of the greatest moments of the pregnancy so far (besides the ultrasound).  We go back May 26th for the anatomy scan.  We can't wait..it's going to be a long 3 weeks of anxiously waiting!  We have been working on the house trying to get things in order for the baby.  Our new roof has been put on, we have cleaned out the office a bit and now we are just saving up more money so we can repair the water damage from the winter.  We hope in the next month we will start working on the nursery.  I will try to be better about updating the blog on a weekly basis!  I think this survey below will be a good way to quickly update when there is little time. 

How far along?  17w 6 days
Total weight gain/loss: about 4 pounds
Sleep:  Sleep ok most nights, wake up around 6 thanks to the puppies being on a schedule and wanting to go out at that time every morning!
Best moment this week:  hmmm I had some good dreams this week.  One dream was that I had twin girls, and last night I dreamt that I felt the baby moving. 
Movement: I dreamt I felt the baby moving, but no real noticable movement yet.  Any movements I feel now I chalk up to gas bubbles etc in my stomach, although some of it very well could be the baby moving. 
Symptoms: Hungry all the time!
Food cravings:  Anything I can eat!  It really changes based on the day/time of day.
Food aversions: None
Gender:  I want it to be a girl and Sean wants a boy. We will be happy either way as long as the baby is healthy.
Labor Signs:  Fortunately not and hopefully not for at least 20 more weeks!
Belly Button in or out?  In, not much has changed since I got pregnant...just look like I have a little belly now.
What I miss: Having a glass of wine whenever I want and having sushi!  Not having to worry so much about fixing up the house and trying to save money at the same time.
What I am looking forward to: Our anatomy scan on the 26th.
Milestones:  I guess tomorrow is sort of my first mother's day!
