How far along? 19 Weeks
Size of Baby: Mango/Large Tomato (6 inches long, 8.5 ounces)
Waist: 37 in
Total weight gain: 5.5 lbs, only gained 1.5 lbs in the last 2 weeks.
Maternity clothes? Still able to fit into my tops, but always wearing maternity bottoms.
Stretch marks? None yet.
Sleep: Same as usual. Wake up a decent amount and may take a while to fall back asleep. Especially if my husband is snoring!
Best moment this week: Just feeling the baby move. I usually feel him at night, while I'm resting on the couch. I sometimes feel him in the car on my way home from work. Its like he gets excited knowing I'm going home!
Miss anything? My skin has been a little better this week. I hope I don't jinx myself. This week, I do miss my back not hurting so easily and being able to sleep better.
Movement: Like I said before, he is starting to become active! I mostly only feel him when I am sitting as it is still pretty subtle.
Food cravings: Again, I'm pretty boring in this department. Nothing in particular.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Some foods, mainly meat.
Gender: Boy!
Labor signs: No.
Symptoms: Same: Same old, same old. Constipation, hungry all of the time, cramping/round ligament pain (it hurts when I make sudden movements and sneeze). But now I can add back pain to the mix. I have been very busy at work, so that definitely doesn't help.
Belly button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy.
Looking forward to: Still can't wait for our next ultrasound on Nov 20th!
Fact: This is a very important time in terms of sensory development. Inside your baby's brain, certain areas are being specialized for smell, touch, taste, hearing, and vision. Another big development in the last week, hair may finally be sprouting from his scalp. (-Everyday Family)
