19 Weeks...




How far along? 19 weeks, 4 days

Weight gain: NONE!!!  Still under weight!!  YAY!

Baby Weighs: Should be closer to 10oz now, it was 9oz at my doc appt last Thursday.

Maternity clothes? YUP... looking forward to my regular clothes again though!

Sleep: Okay... a little better with the new mattress we got, laying more on my sides now though.

Best moment of the week: Having a nice labor day weekend with my family :)

Miss anything? My mind... I can see why mom's made the post-it guy a millionaire! LOL

Movement: Might be some, I get flutters now and then but my placenta is on the front of my uterus so that will cushion the movements for a while yet.

Food cravings: None really at the moment

Anything making you queasy or sick: Thankfully no :)

Belly button in or out? In and I'm sure it'll stay that way... lol

Wedding rings on or off? Still on :)

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy, I think... hehe! But there are always mood swings!

Looking forward to: Taking newborn portraits for our friends Sheena & Shane who had their beautiful baby boy, Sylas, on Sept 1!  Also looking forward to Oct 3 for our next ultrasound!

Baby H Ultrasound

Today I had an ultrasound of Baby H.  All is looking good so far and measuring about 9oz :)  She/He was being a bit stubborn so I have to go back for another ultrasound on Oct 3 because they were unable to view all 4 chambers of the heart and the bladder.  But He/She was chillaxin in utero with it's arm behind it's head.  Also found out that my placenta is on the front of my uterus so it'll be more difficult to actually feel movement until later on because it kind of pads the movements that baby H is making.  Anyways, here are a few pics :)

BOO! I scare you!!! hehe! Baby's face looking out (Kind of looks like Achmed the terrorist! haha)

Profile... couldn't get a better image because the head is right under my belly button and was hard to get a good profile shot.

1 foot... good thing it's labeled cuz I don't see it! haha!

Other foot, again, can't really tell but I guess that's what it is. LOL

15 weeks...




How far along? 15 weeks, 3 days 

Weight gain: 4lbs under my last Dr. appt. STILL :)

How big is baby? should be about the size of an avocado 4-5 in 3-5oz

Sleep: Not any better... but at least I can still sleep somewhat on my stomach 

Memorable moment of the week: Last week I bought a pair of UGG booties for Baby H to come home in.  They are adorable! Our 5th Anniversary was on Aug 4 and Chesney turned 5 on Aug 5th :)

Miss anything? Wearing my regular jeans

Movement: None that I know of yet. Can't wait though!

Activity of the week: Nothing too exciting... have a lot of work this week.

Food cravings: Chinese food... that was our 5th anniversary meal since our weekend away was an epic failure :(

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope


Wedding rings on or off? Still on :) 

Happy or moody most of the time? A little more emotional lately, but that could be due to more than just being pregnant with the recent events that have happened.  I guess because of the weekend, I'd have to say more moody than happy.... or maybe that's just mood-swinging... HAHA!

Looking forward to: Week 16 :) haha! No particular reason though.

Baby H's booties to come home in!
Chesney's Birthday Cake... he loved it!
