21 weeks

How Far Along: 21 Weeks  

Size of baby:  At my ultrasound last week she was 12 oz so I am assuming somewhere around there.  According to babycenter.com she should be around 10.5 inches long, the length of a carrot. 

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 5 lbs

Maternity Clothes: I wore a non-maternity shirt yesterday and it was getting pretty tight...there are still a few things that fit fine but my work pants are all maternity and I need the belly band for my jeans.  Dresses are still non maternity as well. 

Gender: Girl!

Movement: Its great! It is such a God given gift, especially for this over emotional worried pregnant lady...

Sleep: I have developed some sleeping issues and they are no fun! I have been getting progesterone shots weekly & have wonderful bruises on each hip (that I am very grateful for). I am a side & stomach sleeper and since sleeping on my stomach isnt really working out, each time I turn onto my side I wake up in pain...well it makes it an interesting night...


Symptoms:  It seems that if I "overdo" it at all, I start to have contractions.  So I have been trying to take it a little more easy! 

Cravings: Sweets, Licorice, chips, beef pickles & Simply lemonade, the raspberry kind. 


Best Moment this week: feeling movement is always the best moment for me.  She always moves especially after I eat, which I just love (eating & feeling her move :)


What I am looking forward to: A nice relaxing weekend! 
Happy Friday!  Have a wonderful weekend!
