I'm officially 21 weeks! It's kind of crazy to think that I'm more than halfway now! I'm hoping the rest of this pregnancy doesn't fly by because I still have a lot to do and I'm enjoying every moment! According to the Bump this week, Baby Carson is the size of a banana. Nick was laughing about Carson going from a cantaloupe to a banana. This was basically our conversation:
Me: "Babe, Carson is the size of a banana now!"
Nick: "So apparently he got long and real skinny this week!"
This week we ordered (and received) Carson's bedding and I LOVE it! I'm going to use it to pick out a paint color pretty soon and I'm pretty excited about that.
Here is the weekly run-down.......
How far along? 21 weeks
Total weight gain: Maybe 5lbs by now. Somewhere between 4 and 5 I'm sure. Maternity clothes? Not yet! I wore my BeBand from Target one day this week but it wasn't really necessary yet so I haven't worn it again. (I'm thinking it will be necessary VERY soon!)
Stretch marks? no
Sleep: Sleeping great and my cold is gone! Lately I've only been waking up once every night to pee which is a huge improvement!
Best moment this week: Having Nick feel Carson kick HARD 3 times in a row last night!
Miss Anything? Just warm weather...nothing pregnancy related :)
Movement: Definitely more movement this week! Carson is moving around as I type this. He seems to be pretty active in the late afternoons and evenings and sometimes in the morning!
Food cravings: Sweets this week. I went to the grocery and bought mini powdered donuts, chocolate Special K bars, and ingredients for a cake from Pinterest! (Don't worry, I also bought a bunch of fruit!)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Gender: Baby BOY Carson!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Nothing new....energy level is improving but I'll still have a random night where I get home from work and pass out on the couch!
Belly Button in or out? innie
Wedding rings on or off? on still...hopefully for a while!Happy or Moody most of the time: Super happy! I can't help but smile when I feel Carson moving around in there!
Looking forward to: Picking out a paint color for Carson's nursery!
Looking forward to: Picking out a paint color for Carson's nursery!
Here is the latest bump pic. I don't feel like I look much bigger than last week's pic but I feel a ton bigger and people at work are finally starting to believe I have a baby in there! :)
P.S. My butt looks huge and that's real life. I've always had a ghetto booty :)
