21 Weeks

Since Scott only sees me in my pajamas during the week, we'll have to settle with this 20 wk 6 day shot when he was around to take my picture. Darn night school.







How far along are you?: 21 Weeks


Total weight gain: 15 pounds

How big is the baby?: 3/4 lb. and 10 1/2 inches long.

Maternity clothes: Yup!!!

Stretch marks?: No new ones yet.

Sleep: My reflux has subsided in the past week or so (knock on wood!). I look forward to going to bed because I'm so wiped by the end of the day, but I just wish I slept better and didn't wake up so early. I can't ever get my body to relax enough to fall back asleep after I wake up usually between  5:30 and 6:30.

Best moment this week: Spending the early evening outside my parents home watching the sunset and the kids play.

Movement: Feeling some jabs and little peanut punches. Can't wait for Harlie to feel her!

Food cravings:  Peach and berry cobbler, lemon pie, orange juice
 
Food aversions: Not so bad this week.

Labor signs: None

Belly button in or out: In.

What I miss: I've missing my FACTO days when I only had to go into the office 3 days a week and I could spend part of my pregnancy taking it easy and going on prego walks on my mornings off with Ali.

What I'm looking forward to:  Fall! Also, to start my new job tomorrow.

  1. You look simply gorgeous! That is such a cute top with that skirt. You have the nicest curvy baby bump. Mine feels so low and squashy. Not squishy, but squashy, like someone scrunched it down. I envy your bump. :)

    I can't believe how big Ashlynne is now! She's catching up to my little one. And how very, very strange and exciting to see her name as a tag.

    I have no dessert in the house. This is a sad day, all your cravings just made me crave that too!
