Pregnancy - 17 Weeks

Pregnancy: 17 weeks

Sleep: Still doing pretty well. No complaints so far.

Gender: ???????

Names: Oh yeah, baby app. Forgot about that! I'm starting to think I may just need a good old paperback book since I can't find the two we had with Caleb. I loaned them to a friend and then we moved twice. I've looked in all the places I would expect them to be. I don't have very much hope of finding them at this point.

Feeling: I'm kind of afraid to say it for fear of jinxing it, but I think my morning sickness may finally be gone. Energy is mostly back, and I don't fall asleep at the drop of a hat anymore. I know because I laid in the dark with Caleb for a half hour last night, and I didn't pass out! That would have been unheard of a few weeks ago.

Health: I was having some pretty awful pain in my pubic bone area for about a week. But magically after I scheduled an appointment to have it checked out, the pain went away. I still have to be careful about how I sit and how long I'm on my feet, but I'm just happy that the pain is mostly gone. Otherwise, my health is great. Blood pressure was 120/70-something at my appointment this week, weight gain is on track, and everything else is looking good too.

Movement: The kicks have started! I told Andrew the other night that I think I'm going to be bruised on the inside when the baby gets a little stronger.

Belly: See for yourself:

Taken at 16 weeks, 4 days

Next Appointment: Anatomy scan ultrasound is scheduled for February 4th. Next appointment is February 9th.
