How Far Along?: 17 weeks and 5 days.
Size of Baby: About 5 inches, size of an onion! We also found out yesterday that baby's heart is almost the size of a quarter, which is pretty cool.
Gender: We find out SATURDAY!! We had our anatomy ultrasound yesterday and babe did so well! They were able to get all the measurements they needed despite me being a tad early for this kind of ultrasound, and even showed off whether babe is a HE or SHE. Of course, it was so hard not finding out!! We're waiting until our reveal party this Saturday. :)
Weight Gain: Up 4 pounds total this pregnancy.
Maternity Clothes: Yep. Shamelessly beginning to wear maternity clothes because my belly is getting too round for regular clothes. Just need to make it through the warm weather!
Stretch Marks: Nope! And hopefully they stay away.
Movement: Definitely been feeling movement... the sensations I felt last week were exactly what I thought they were! I feel babe all the time now! Feels like little bubbles popping in my belly, and sometimes I get a strong jab here and there. God is so good.
Symptoms: Hungry. Hungry. Hippo.
Sleep: Been sleeping pretty well the last few nights with super vivid dreams that make no sense.
Cravings: Mostly sweets, but a little saltiness is making its way to my craving list.
Nursery: Baby's closet is ready! Once we find out the gender this weekend, it's paint pickin' time!!
Belly Button in or out?: In!
Wedding rings on or off?: On!
Mood: So so happy. So so thankful. Matt and I were just so high on life after the ultrasound yesterday. We're finally allowing ourselves to get knee-deep in this and so excited.
What I Miss: Nothing at all.
Best Moment This Week: The ULTRASOUND, duh! It was so great. Babe was moving all over the place, even opened his/her mouth! I'm just so thankful for a healthy baby and pregnancy, so far.
