My Nineteenth Week of Pregnancy Update
Baby is the size of a: Heirloom Tomato. (Apologies for messing this up last week and the week before! Oops!)
Total weight gain: About eleven pounds!
Maternity clothes: Yes. Same as before. Mostly in my own jeans (although this is starting to be uncomfortable, even with my belly band!), and definitely beginning to outgrow my shirts.
Stretch marks: Nope! Fingers crossed my coconut butter works!
Sleep: Sleeping has been difficult lately. Oddly, because I am normally quite an excellent sleeper. However, lately I have been waking up around 4:30-5:00 in the morning and then staying (mostly) awake. It is very frustrating and it seems to happen regardless of when I make myself go to bed.
Exercise: Walking and going to the archery range, which gets me out and moving around and always makes me feel a bit more energized.
Miss anything: Not today.
Movement: Yes. It happens in the evenings when I am in bed for the night and in the morning - often before I am even out of bed. I can feel little bean wriggling and bouncing around in there! It is really special to watch, too.
Food cravings: Nothing unusual.
Anything making you queasy or sick: The kitchen/fridge/trashcans. Other than that, no.
Gender: Hopefully one or the other and not both!
Labor signs: No - thankfully.
Happy or moody most of the time: Feeling nice and happy lately, just getting bouts of exhaustion here and there and I've found myself being quieter than normal for a few days. But certainly feeling pretty happy.
Looking forward to: The downhill slope of pregnancy! Cant believe we're almost halfway.
