Well
I feel like I've definitely gotten in the swing of this whole pregnancy
thing. Here's a quick look at the first few weeks of my second
trimester:
Feeling? I'm
feeling really good, for the most part, and am really enjoying every
little moment. Soaking it all in because I know in a few short months,
it may not be as magical as it is now.
Weight
Gain? About 4-5 pounds total
Baby Size? We've graduated from the
size of a lemon to a the size of a turnip. Baby B is now approximately 5 inches long
(from head to bottom) and weighs 5 ounces.
Maternity Clothes? No, I've ordered/bought a few things, but haven't worn anything yet. I finally got a belly band and it's working like a charm, though. Will be on the hunt for more maternity clothes shortly.
Cravings? Basically anything salty and fruit. My faves right now Wavy Lays
and french onion dip (I could literally eat it with a spoon) and
strawberries, grapes and apples. But I'm back to eating pretty normally
and sensibly; I only succumb to cravings every now and again.
What I Miss? Every once in a while, I'd love a margarita, but other than
that, I'm doing alright. I also don't have the stamina to run like I
used to before, so now I walk/jog the best I can.
What I'm
Looking Forward To? I get a sonogram at our next doctor's appointment in
two short weeks. This will (hopefully) be our gender confirmation appointment. Can't wait to see our little one again!
Best
Moment? I've finally felt my first flutters of movement a few times.
It's usually when I'm laying flat or on my side right before I go to
bed. One of my favorite moments in life, actually :-)
