21 Weeks


How far along? 21 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I didn't weigh this morning, but as of yesterday, I was up another pound so still 3 lbs lost since BFP
Maternity clothes? Yup.
Stretch marks? None I've noticed.
Sleep: Allergies have been waking me pretty regularly and depriving me of at least an hour of sleep a night, but last night I actually STTN for the first time in a week!
Best moment this week: The parents of the kids I work with threw me a going away party/baby shower yesterday. It was so touching, and they really went all out, going in together to get us the car seat, extra base, stroller, and some books. Incredibly sweet!
Movement: Indeed!
Food cravings: I've recently discovered olive oil-rosemary bagels, and they're the only things I can eat in the morning nowadays.
Gender: Boy!
Labor Signs: Nope, but I think I'm actually feeling BH contractions now.
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: Allergy medicine that actually works.
What I am looking forward to: C being able to feel the kicks. Even though he won't admit it, it's pretty obvious he's looking forward to it because he's putting his hands or head on my belly with increasing frequency.
Weekly Wisdom: When it's possible, plan ahead with the nursery. It makes things so much more real to be able to walk into the room and see the furniture with the bedding and everything. We're not done, by any means, but we have a good start!
Milestones: Last week was a big week, so I'm not sure I have any other milestones. Though this week marks me being 2/3 done with my degree, which is pretty awesome!

A picture will have to come tomorrow since I'm still in pjs... it's exam week, so cut me some slack! (EDIT: Picture added 5/4)
