17 weeks

a friend updated her pregnancy on her blog this way and i thought it was really cute, so i'm borrowing her idea. in appreciation for the idea, please visit julie's jotter! super cute blog, super cute little boy with a (no doubt gonna be super cute) baby girl on the way!

how far along? 17 weeks

weight gain? 9 lbs. don't know if this is completely accurate, cause the OB nurse didn't really wait for the scale to balance before deciding on a number and writing it in pen in my chart, haha!

maternity clothes? some, but mostly not. yay for stretchy waist skirts and dresses!

stretch marks? nope

sleep? ok, trying to avoid my stomach and back doesn't leave many options. two, to be exact. but, overall, still sleeping fine!

best moment this week? starting to feel our sweet baby move!

movement? ocassional

cravings? not really. but definitely hungry a lot. maybe that 9 lb weight gain is right after all...:)

gender? we don't know yet, but our ultrasound is september 16th!!!

labor signs? goodness, no.

belly button in or out? still in, but definitely more open

what i miss? being able to pick up my 14-month-old without hesitation. i still pick him up, just carefully. i love that he can still sit on my lap to read books without my belly bumping him out of the way. yet.

what i'm looking forward to? more baby movement! finding out if ethan will have a little brother or sister!
