Baby's skeleton is hardening, changing from rubbery cartilage to bone, and fat is finally accumulating around it. The umbilical cord is getting thicker and stronger, and those little fingers and toes are now topped by one-of-a-kind prints.
How far along? 17 weeks
Total Weight Gain: At this point not sure. I have my next appointment on Thursday though...
Maternity Clothes? I am finding out 2 pairs of maternity pants really isn't enough... I might have to go buy me maybe 2 more...
Stretch Marks? Ugh no more please! No new ones at least...
Sleep? Knock on Wood but I've been sleeping a heck of a lot better these days. And I don't HAVE to have a nap everyday... just when I am really tired.
Best Moment This Week: Celebrating our new "home" with all our family. And we got to see my new nephew Luisito again.
Movement: Little here and there... nothing major or constant.
Food Cravings: This week Carne Asada... I am craving it right now again!
Gender: I would like a boy but would be fine with either.
Labor Signs: None yet... Way too early
Belly Button - In
What I miss: My back not hurting as much... I've always had back pains pregnant or not but now it's getting ridiculous!
What I am looking forward to: My next appointment on Nov. 12th because that's when our ultrasound will be scheduled.
Weekly Wisdom: Don't let your sick sister sleep in your bed... She may have just gotten me and my daughters sick with the flu. Ugh...
Milestones: No huge emotional breakdowns as of yet! But those are probably gonna kick in soon.
