House into a Home

How far along = 21 weeks
Total weight gain/loss = +10
Tummy Circumference = 37" (this one isn't working out as well as i hoped.)
Gender = GIRL!!
Maternity clothes= I need to break down and buy a new bra and maternity pants
Sleep = Can't wait to get off of the air mattress and into a real bed...in due time
Movement = Today I could see the movement through all my fat and such, way cool!
Best moment this week = Turning our house into a home
Food cravings = Sweets, I eat way more sweets now that I am pregnant, than I have in a way long time, like years.
What I'll miss = Don't know this week.
Milestones= Over halfway there
Extra = Tomorrow is our cooking group day, I am excited. I like that, I feel like a stay at home mom when I can hang out with other moms doing mom things. This week I also started my 60 hour week at work, not too excited because I now hardly ever see James, and now it will be even more hardly ever see him...it sucks and makes we want to get a different job just so I can see him. Once we get a real bed, I will take pictures of most of the house so you all can see it. Then once the baby room is organized I will take a picture of that.
Baby Growth= How big is your baby? About the size of a large banana — and speaking of bananas, if you eat one this week, there's a good chance your baby will get a taste, too. That's because he swallows a bit of amniotic fluid each day (for nutrition, hydration, and to practice digesting), so he eats whatever's on your menu — and gets to put those developing taste buds to good use. So go ahead and nosh on those nachos (or crunch those crudités): Your baby may develop a taste for them when he’s older.

  1. i totally feel ya on the sweets. i never really liked them before but couldn't get enough while i was pregnant! the saddest part: a lot of the eating preferences i developed during pregnancy have stuck with me. ;-(

    ps- here's my two cents about buying a new bra... just based on my experience. i wish i would have bought a nursing bra while i was still pregnant. it would have been more comfortable and saved me money since i most likely won't ever be that "second half of my first pregnancy size" again... or at least not for long. and i would suggest that you splurge and get a bravado nursing bra. when your milk comes in, you will thank me... times a million.

  2. The real question is, what size do I buy? I don't know how much bigger I will be getting...it is like that and with me buying baby clothes...I don't know how big my baby is going to be when it is born, so is newborn too small?
