Week 19!


How far along? 19 weeks
Weight gain/loss: I weighed myself tonight and i was about 130, so i think i've gained maybe 8-10 lbs so far.
Maternity clothes? I've grown out of most of my pants...only where i button them tho. I made an elastic pants expander so I can still wear a lot of my pants without buying a bunch of maternity ones.
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep? yes please!
Best moment this week? Feeling the baby kick quite a bit
Food cravings: dessert and coke!
Gender: Girl! I still can't believe it, i was totally feelin boy!
Belly button in or out? In
Movement? I've definitely felt the baby kick, both inside and from the outside. If i push in on my stomach a little i can feel the baby's little punches!
What I miss? Feeling normal after I eat...it seems like most of the time i feel really bloated after I eat. I have to be careful not to eat too much because i'll feel super full for a long time. It's also hard to sit down after i eat for very long, i need to walk a little to get it moving through my system.
What I'm looking forward to: Feeling the baby more and more.
Milestones: My belly has definitely started growing and the baby is kicking more and more. I feel it every day now!

Cool Room Designer Site

I found this cool site where you can design your own baby room. It's called Rooms By You, you can choose from all types of fabrics and wall colors.  Here's what i put together for our little girls room. Of course it's not exactly how it will look, but it's pretty much my inspiration. As you can see...no pink! I'm not totally against pink, i know we'll get tons of pink girly clothes and toys, but for her room i'm using very little if any of it. I feel like it's just typical to do a girls room in pink and i'm always trying to do things a little different. Anyway...see what you think!

Hopefully tomorrow is the last day we'll have a mystery baby! Friday is our ultrasound appt...i'm hoping so bad the baby will show us his/her goodies so we can see who's in there!! :-) 
I'm can't wait!

Week 18!


I'm in my 18th week now...almost half way! This weekend we made our first trip to Babies R Us! We took a look at strollers. It's amazing how different they all are..different weights, different ways the carseat fits into it, and different ways it folds up. Thankfully, we were able to narrow it down to a brand that we like. We also took a look at gliders. Those too go from very simple to very elaborate. We left with our first baby purchase...diapers of course! We're planning on stocking up on diapers so we have a few months worth. It's easier to get them now when they're on sale!

Friday is the big day! We have our ultrasound and hopefully baby will show us his/her goodies so we can see what gender is in there. I can't wait to start planning the room colors and picking fabrics. I'm planning on making  the baby bedding and curtains myself so i can get the look i want.


How far along? 18 weeks
Weight gain/loss: I've probably gained a pound or two since my last doctor visit.
Maternity clothes? My pants are starting to get tight...but i'm determined to wear as many of my own clothes for as long as i can.
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep? yes please!
Best moment this week? Hopefully our ultrasound on Friday!
Food cravings: I still like a lot of fruit and desserts!
Gender: Find out friday!
Belly button in or out? In
Movement? I think i'm starting to feel some fluttery movements but they aren't regular, so when i feel one, i don't have something to compare it to.
What I miss? Having a drink now and then
What I'm looking forward to: Finding out what the baby is..
Milestones: My belly is slowly getting bigger!
