21 weeks with baby #2!


How far along? 21 weeks! 
If you'd like to read about my 21st week with Elsie, feel free to click here!!

Maternity clothes: Meh i'm slowly adding more and more to my daily outfit. But I still fit in all my pre pregnancy clothes, it's more just about comfort and making everything look a little bit smoother. haha 

Stretch marks? Still no issue

Sleep: No problem! 

Best moment this week: I have to think a bit backwards since i'm so behind again this week. But I would have to say Easter! We stayed in the cities and celebrated with Josh's family. It was a really nice time! Elsie got lots of cute little Easter gifts, it was a wonderful way to celebrate our babe's first Easter! :) 

Miss anything?: I really can't think of anything specific! 

Movement: Ohhhh yes, she likes to focus all her strength directly on my bladder lately. I definitely think I can feel her more than I did Elsie. And she's STRONG!  

Food cravings: It's really just random things. I'm trying to get my fill of as many of my favorite "city" things that I can before we move! It's definitely more slim pickins up in homeland! 

Anything making you queasy or sick?  I've done WONDERFUL on this front lately!! (knock on wood)    

Gender: A little lady bird

Labor signs: Nope 

Symptoms: Horrible indigestion lately. No pain, but just feel like none of my food makes it past my chest. Just feels constantly lodged. Really uncomfortable!  

Belly button in or out? It's still hangin' in there!

Happy or moody most of the time? HAPPY!!! 

Looking forward to: Getting this move over and done with and getting settled!! I'm so nervous. 10 days!! AHHHH!!!

21 weeks :)




How far along? 21 weeks! 

Maternity clothes: I'm still wearing regular shirts for the most part but I have a nice collection of cute maternity jeans that I'm almost strictly wearing, more just for comfort not because it's TOTALLY necessary. And plus, in my opinion maternity jeans make me look more "smooth" and actually pregnant vs just chubby with a large muffin top. There are a couple pairs of stretchy colored skinny's that I still manage to wear.

Stretch marks?Still doin' well!!

Sleep: No problems yet! Having some weird dreams

Best moment this week: Well I had a good week as far as how I felt. I think I only had 1 bad headache and that's AMAZING comparatively speaking!! I feel like I'm finally crawling out of the pit that I was stuck in for so long! And this weekend was a good one as well, Josh and I got a new vehicle on Friday. We got our first "family vehicle"-a Denali, so that was pretty exciting. And then on Saturday I did my niece's makeup for her senior prom, and had a blast hanging out with those girls for the afternoon.





Miss anything?: I've FINALLY reached the smooth portion of pregnancy, so NOTHING at the moment. I'm just hoping this part lasts as LONG AS POSSIBLE! ;) 

Movement: Still sporadic and really only when I'm laying down or paying particular attention, but I'm definitely feeling her now. Still not feeling definite "kicks" yet. It feels like I have a baby mermaid in there flapping her fins around, or like she's doing the wave or something. So bizarre, but really pretty cool. 

Food cravings: Nothing particularly different. Still on an almost strictly spicy food craving streak. Scrambled eggs doused in salsa is another big regular craving I've had. I think this little girl is going to have her mama's taste in food ;)My only other constant craving that is a little out of the norm for me is Apples. Still granny smith for the most part, but i've expanded to other kinds too.

Anything making you queasy or sick?  Doing really well as far as queasiness goes!! Still get a bit gaggish within like 10-15 minutes of waking up occasionally, but I can deal with that.    

Gender: A little Chick-a-dee! :D 

Labor signs: Nope 

Symptoms: A set of 2-3 hiccups almost CONSTANTLY, and headaches (less and less though) 

Belly button in or out? It's still hangin' in there!

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or moody most of the time? Very HAPPY!! 

Looking forward to: Everything really! Summer nights, softball games in the warm weather, My birthday, beach days! We have to get there eventually right???
