17 Weeks

Meant to post this last Thursday - 3/22/13

How far along? 17 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I've gained 14 lbs since pre baby! That is GREAT since they say 1 lb a week is on target - I guess my pre baby diet of chipotle, chick-fil-a and Chips has really conditioned my body for cravings of JUNK! :)
Maternity Clothes? OMG my pants are sooooooooo tight! Still squeezing in but it's getting a bit sad...like I have a baby belly muffin top hahaha. May have to try maternity clothes wahhhh! I have been wearing dresses this week that I couldn't wear in the first TRI so I'm pretty happy about that but seriously my pants are giving me muffin tops - YIKES!
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Sleeping well but I never feel like I've gotten enough.
Best moment this week: 1. Hearing the baby move around at the doctor appointment - (s)he was doing flips or something! So cute! 2. My doctor writing an RX saying, "Melissa is allowed to have a green beer in honor of St. Patty's day. One a day is OK :)" Then proceeding to tell me that everybody is so paranoid about people being on crack and being overly cautious and having a drink everyday even while pregnant is perfectly fine. Hilarious! Ps.com - this is the same doctor that lectured Ron about how bad diet soda is. Soooo diet soda will kill you but drinking during pregnancy is OK in her  book. LOVE IT.
Have you told family and friends? yes.
Miss Anything? buttoning pants
Movement: No
Food Cravings: chocolate
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing I can put my finger on.
Have you started to show yet? Yea I'm fat, atleast according to the buttons and zippers on my pants.
Gender prediction: Still going with girl. - get to find out on April 9th! WHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time? I wouldn't say moody as much as I would say CRAZY...holy cow - 1. On thursday mornings when I have to leave my puppies I want to ball my eyes out...worst moment of the week. 2. On Wednesday nights when I have to pick out not 1 but 2 outfits that might as well be Thursday morning - talk about a crazy lady moment. I'm shocked I haven't thrown out ALL of my clothes by now. Picking out outfits is THE WORST!
Weekly Wisdom: "One a day is OK"
Looking forward to: Moving and FINDING OUT THE SEX!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOO April will be an exciting month!!!!
