18 Weeks!!!

Time is definitely flying by!! I can't believe I am already 18 weeks along. 

How Many Weeks: 18 Weeks !!!

Total weight gain: I go back to the doctor in like 2 weeks so we will find out then.

Maternity clothes: Yes!!! I am really enjoying these new clothes. I can still mix in some of my pre pregnancy clothes which is nice also!!

Stretch marks: Nope!!! Still using (Here) everyday and absolutely love it!!!

Sleep: I have been sleeping really well lately. I don't get up as much anymore in the middle of the night. Usually just once around 4 or 5 in the morning.

Best moment of this week: This past weekend was really nice we had Tom's cousins 50th birthday on Saturday and then on Sunday my niece Scarlett had her Christening / 1st birthday!! She was super cute at the party. It was musical themed and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. I can't believe that she is already 1!

Miss anything: Nothing this week!!

Movement: Maybe a "flutter," it's still really hard to tell. I keep talking to the "blueberry," but nothing is really happening:)

Food cravings: Here and there I have wanted some things, but nothing really stands out. Breakfast food is still the best thing that goes down.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week that comes to mind.

Have you started to show yet: Yes!

Gender: Don't know yet. Tom thinks boy since he had a dream it was a girl.  I'm not really sure, sometimes I think boy, sometimes girl. March please come quick so we can find out what this little "blueberry" is.

Labor signs: No.

Belly button in or out: Still in.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!! I am really enjoying this pregnancy. If it goes as smooth as it has been going, I will definitely do this again.

Looking forward to: Dinner Tuesday night with my wonderful girls from work. We have parent teacher conferences so we are doing dinner at Jose Tejas. I'm super glad it's only 2 days of conferences. 

I am looking forward to really having a calm week. Nothing is really coming up which is nice. 

17 Weeks and Counting!!!

I was able to fit in this weeks update before school, since once again we have had a delayed opening due to the snow!!! Don't get me wrong the delays are nice, but the snow is getting a bit tiring. Tom woke up again this morning dreading shoveling again. Luckily, this snow was easy to get through and not as heavy as the past week's storms.

 

As for the baby no milestone has happened this past week!! We are still anxiously awaiting to find out what this little "Blueberry," is. 

 

How Many Weeks: 17 Weeks 

 

Total weight gain: As far as I know still the same as last week. Which means I haven't gained anything yet.

Maternity clothes: Yes!!! I really enjoy the jeans from Destination Maternity

Here and the ones I have bought from The Gap Here.

Stretch marks: Nope!!! Still using (Here) everyday and absolutely love it!!!

 

Sleep: I have been sleeping really well the past couple days. Some days I sleep with the Snoogle

Here and some nights not. Tom got this for me for Christmas and it has definitely come in handy with sleeping on my side, which I am not use to.

Best moment of this week: This week has not been too eventful yet. Probably the delayed opening is the best. Also going to dinner with two of my lovely friends Amy and Gina.

Miss anything: I am still missing Italian subs. Again this week Tom had one and I really wanted it, but soon enough I will be able to eat those, which then I probably won't want.

Movement: Still nothing!

Food cravings: Still enjoy having fruit and breakfast foods. Dinner is a hard meal for me, I am never hungry for that meal. I do much better at breakfast and lunch.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week that comes to mind.

Have you started to show yet: Yes!

Gender: Don't know yet, March can't come soon enough!!!

Labor signs: Not at all.

Belly button in or out: Still staying in.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!!

Looking forward to:  This weekend is going to be pretty eventful. Friday, I am so looking forward to going for a prenatal massage with Jenn. My wonderful co-workers had gotten me a gift certificate for my birthday and I am going to use it at Flic Spa Here. It has been really nice to be pregnant with a friend, and to be able to share all of these milestones!! I am very lucky to have such a wonderful friend!!!

 

This weekend is also my niece's Christening and First Birthday!! I can't believe it has been a year since Scarlett was born. Happy Birthday to a sweet and happy little girl!!! xoxo

I am not looking forward to Tom going on his business trip to San Francisco, but luckily it is only for a couple of days.

Happy Valentine's Day

I am a little late with my update this week!! The week has been pretty crazy with all the snow, which I am definitely tired of seeing at this point. I am ready for warmer weather and less layers.
Tom and I are excited to be celebrating Valentine's Day with a nice dinner at
Two Fifty Two in Bedminster. 

How far along: 16 weeks

Total weight gain: I went for my monthly checkup on Tuesday and I have gained 1 pound. So at this point I am back to the original weight I started at.

Maternity clothes: Yes!!! I am loving my new clothing collection. My wallet doesn't love it so much, but it is always nice to have some new clothes.

Stretch marks: Nope!!! Still using (Here).

Sleep: Overall I am sleeping much better. I tend to get up once during the middle of the night to use the bathroom, but overall the sleeping is much better than the first trimester.

Best moment of this week: Tuesday I had a doctor's appointment and got to see the little "blueberry's" heartbeat. The rate was in the 150's and the doctor is guessing boy, but the last appointment they said girl, so who knows. We just can't wait to find to find out next month.

Miss anything: This week I missed out on having clams when I was at my mom's. They looked and smelled so good. I can't wait until the summer when I can start eating them again.

Movement: Nothing yet, but the doctor says I should start feeling something within the next couple weeks.

Food cravings: Clams this week!!! Overall though I still love eating fruit and breakfast foods. This week it has been back again to cereal and bagels.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really, cooking meat does not always work out so well. I don't mind so much eating it, but the preparing is definitely more difficult.

Have you started to show yet: Yes, there is a bump!

Gender: Don't know yet, still a couple more weeks!!! 

Labor signs: Not at all.

Belly button in or out: Still staying in.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!! This has been a good week!! Snowy but a nice week.

Looking forward to: Dinner for Valentine's Day with Tom!!



Apple of Our Eye!!!

So we are starting week fifteen on Super Bowl Sunday!!! Tom and I BOTH have plans this year to go to our neighbors to celebrate, which is good because it is nice and close.

How far along: 15 weeks

Total weight gain: Not sure yet, I go next week for my monthly checkup so I'm sure they will tell me then.

Maternity clothes: Yes!!! It's a mix though. My shirts still fit but pants are another story. I love the elastic waist!!! I have done a bit of shopping, adding some new maternity clothes. I can't wait to wear some of the new spring ones. 

Stretch marks: Nope!!! Still using (Here) everyday and absolutely love it!!!

Sleep: Overall I sleep pretty well. I do get up around 3 or 4 to go to the bathroom, but I can deal with that.

Best moment of this week: Last night (Saturday), the girls from work got together and we went to dinner at Seasons 52. It was so nice to actually have a night out with all my friends. We always have a great time when we go out, it's just too bad that it doesn't happen more often!!

Miss anything: This week an Italian sub looked really good when my coworker had it for lunch. I miss things only when I see them.

Movement: Still nothing!

Food cravings: Still enjoy having the fruit and milkshakes always look good :)

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really, although I did not want to make tacos this week due to the smell!! I was bummed since I really wanted them, I just couldn't get myself to cook the beef.

Have you started to show yet: Small bump

Gender: Don't know yet, still a couple more weeks!!! We can't wait:)

Labor signs: Not at all.

Belly button in or out: Still staying out in.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!! I really have nothing to be moody about

Looking forward to: Seeing Rachael Ray this week in the city. I have never seen her before and am super psyched!!!
