Week 19

This was the week! I got to find out what we are having. And I will tell you. If you don't already know that is. It's a girl! We are very happy to have another girl, though Jackson was of course, hoping for a boy. But we don't always get what we want... But I do think it's the right fit for our family. With Emma being who she is, I think a sister will do her a world of good...:) 

Week : 19

What I love: Getting to find out what I'm having. Feeling her kick around and move. I have not been hurting much either which is WONDERFUL! Looking good in maternity clothes. That helps with the not getting to wear what I want and growing out of everything. 

What I hate: Pimples. I really hate the dang things. They just keep showing up and bringing their friends to party. Enough already! 

What I miss: I don't know. I haven't been focusing on much of things that I can't do or don't have at the moment. I do miss being able to take drugs for my headaches, but that was because I had a MISERABLE headache on Thursday and there wasn't much I could do about it. 

What I’m looking forward to the most: Getting Jackson into his own room. That will be really nice to spread out a bit more. It would be really nice to not be really tired all the time too. But that is a LOOOONNGGGG way off..:) 

Sleep: Yes! I could sleep all the time. It's getting bad. I probably need to up my VD and make sure my iron is fine. 

Bra Size: B. They seem to have "stabilized". 

Wedding rings on or off: Off. I finally gave in and just took them off, because I really don't like wearing them when I exercise. I was having more and more difficulty getting them off at that particular time, so I gave up and just did it. 

Weight: 155 Weight Gain: 12 lbs. I seem to be catching up with the last time. Whatever. I am going to gain as much as I'm going to gain but as long as I keep exercising and moving, I'll be OK. 

Worries: Birth. 

Symptoms: Other then a big belly? Fatigue. Pimples. The usual. 

Mood: A bit cranky this last week truthfully. I'm not sure why? Just life in general and possibly just needing to get myself in hand... 

Movement: Yes. Every day. Not all day but several times a day for sure. 

The belly (and the button!): Yep. It's round and stretching out. 

Measurements: Chest: 37 Waist: 32 Midsection: 34.5  Hips: 40 Thighs: 

Exercise: 5 times. Running less and less, but I think the workouts that I am doing are pretty effective. I unfortunately managed to injure my elbow a bit. It's really bugging me. Oh well. 

Eating: Pretty good. I'm doing better not eating too many carbs, but need to work on stopping the dark chocolate.... 

The weekly pics:

Brain: This is a crucial time for sensory development. Your baby's brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch.

Leg: Your baby's arms and legs are now in the right proportions to each other and to the rest of his body.

Scalp: Hair is sprouting on your baby's scalp.

Uterus: You may be feeling some achiness in your lower abdomen caused by the stretching of the ligaments that support your growing uterus.

And me: 

 

And this was are announcement about the gender of our baby..
