So I have been reading some other preggo blogs and I liked this weekly update Q&A style:
How far along? 17 weeks.
How big is baby? The size of a sweet potato!

Total weight gain: hold on, let me get my fat ass on the wii....
I'm -1 since last week (although I'm growing for sure!), and -13 lbs since the start of my pregnancy... go figure, I try to lose weight normally and can't, I get pregnant and lose 13 lbs! cruel... although I was throwing up a lot... lol. not a good way to do it.
Clothes? I went out to Target yesterday to see if I could find some cheap run around dresses... eh... not so much. I ended up buying a belly band to wear my jeans longer. It's fantastic! It's like a tube top, for your muffin top! lol

Stretch marks? yes, but I am cocoa buttering my belly. no new ones so it must be doing some good.
Sleep: terrible. I woke up 4 times last night to pee, and at 2:30 I couldn't go back to sleep because I couldn't get passed Gabe's snoring... usually I can just block it out no problem. Not so much lately... Good news is, baby can hear now so he'll be well used to that sound when he's here. lol!!
Movement: yes, I feel the Jelly, but it's not crazy yet. I can't wait to feel serious kicking and dancing. Hopefully soon. Everything I read says it can be any time now, but since it's my first baby I may not feel it as well.
Food cravings: Still all about thousand island dressing. With cucumbers is the best!
What I miss: my 12 cups of coffee per day. I treat myself to some decaf every once in a while. I'm doing awesome with soda! I thought I'd miss it more, but lately it's all juice, gatoraide, vitamin water, and a TON of plain old water. I'm proud of me for that one!
What I am looking forward to next: finding out the gender on the 21st. I hope I can break the "he" habbit if baby turns out to be a she!!!
Milestones: The past week it was being recognized as pregnant, and feeling the baby flutters. :-)
Oh, and THIS: I'm reading a new book. it's called belly laughs by jenny mccarthy. yes, that crazy woman who picked her nose on that mtv show 10 years ago. I like it so far, I'm half way through it. It's not as crude as I had hoped, but it's still brutally honest. I like that. I feel I should be very prepared for what is coming and I don't want any details spared.
Like I said, I'll try to do this every Thursday. :-) I should post belly photos too huh? alright....
I look a hot mess... I apologize. I'm just too damn lazy to wear makeup right now. LOL
