21 Weeks

How far along: 21 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: + 10 pounds

Sleep: Still okay. I had a hard time falling asleep this weekend. But I did get one night where I went 5 hours without getting up to go to the bathroom! That is a record!!

Best moments: Still feeling the baby a lot! He likes to kick and move around the most right when I get into bed and read before going to sleep. I’m hoping that isn’t a sign of things to come! LOL!

Movement: Yup!

Symptoms: A little heart burn at night, but Pepcid takes care of it quickly.

Maternity clothes: I went out to a consignment shop at Sappington and Gravois this weekend and found a cute top and some black capris. Still no luck finding work pants though, so I just got a pair from Target. This week Heidi on Channel 5 News is doing a story on quality maternity clothes in St. Louis! I’ll have to head out to those stores once the story airs.

Food cravings: Nope.

Food aversions: Nope.

What I'm eating: Turkey sandwiches, cheese ravioli, veggie pizza, veggie lasagna, oranges, apples, chicken tacos, salad, milk, cereal, OJ, juice! I really don’t vary much from the normal stuff!

Exercise: Walking with Mario is sadly all I did this week…need to step it up!

Gender: Still a boy! The walls are blue, so no turning back now!

What I miss: A normal size bladder! Haha!

What I am looking forward to: Once I can actually pick out a pattern for material (ordered some samples this weekend) I can’t wait to get started on curtains, a bed skirt, and some accent pillows! My sister is going to be a GREAT help in this since she has awesome sewing skills. :)

Milestones: I’d say the 5 hours in one night without getting up to go to the bathroom is a pretty huge milestone!

One bad thing that did happen this past weekend…I was in a small fender bender in my NEW MINI VAN :( Baby and I were just fine, I’m just mostly upset about the damage to me new car. The other driver took responsibility, so that is good, but still the hassle of all of it is a pain! She side swiped me as she tried to get back into the lane (from the left turn lane) after realizing she was in the wrong lane. So there is a nice dent and scratch along the driver side of the van. Overall, not too bad though since we were all okay!
