Weekly Update
How far along: 19 weeks
How far along: 19 weeks
My belly shot always shows I am 'pregnant' from my left side. The right side looks like I have a beer gut - ENJOY!
Gender: We still do not know yet; one more week!!!
Weight gain: 5 lbs - right on track
Maternity clothes: Not yet. I am using a hair tie for my jeans.
Stretch marks: No - I am vigorously lathering myself up, multiple times a day if I have to. Wherever I sit or lay, there is lotion by my side. Sometimes my tummy with itch or my side and while fighting the urge to scratch, I just add lotion.
Belly button in or out: In - definitely stretching out though.
Sleep: What's that? I have taken some time off so my sleeping schedule is out of whack. Not to mention I get hungry in the middle of the night combined with having to use the restroom multiple times.
Best moment this week: Taking advantage of this pregnancy and parking in an EXPECTING MOTHERS parking space. It really is the little things. Also, most importantly, seeing our baby at the doctors. I did not realize how worried I was for the baby to be perfectly healthy until going through the anatomy ultrasound. With everything the tech said I felt a wave of relief roll over me. Healthy baby!!!

Worst moment this week: Intermittent lower back soreness.
Miss anything: ENERGY! My stamina is running low. I was in a marketing position where I practically ran wherever I had to go for 8-10 hours straight, then worked more at home on the computer. Now my body needs a rest if I have been at the grocery store for 15-20 minutes. It's frustrating :)
Movement: YES!!! It is so cool and amazing. God is awesome. I keep telling the hubby it's pretty cool there is a human inside of me growing - then remind him God chose me to carry this miracle :) If you know us, you will get this comment.
Cravings: A hot dog! I no longer have the nausea like I did for about a month in the first trimester BUT my body still tells me what should or should not be eaten. With that said, I was afraid my body was not going to want the hot dog however I was WRONG! Yay for me :)
Queasy or sick: No
Looking forward to: Finding out if we are having a boy or girl!
