17wks (tomorrow)

This picture is actually from 16 wks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 16w6d

Size of baby: Baby is the size of an onion at 17 wks

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I think 8lbs, but every time I stand on the scale it's different (even though I weigh myself around the same time every morning!  And don't even get me started on the scale at the dr's office (which I usually get weighed late afternoon).

Maternity Clothes: I definitely need maternity pants.  I bought some, but need to get them altered because they are so freaking long!

Gender: BOY!

Movement: I think I felt him move yesterday. In the morning when we were driving into work and then in the afternoon when we were coming home.  It felt like a little poke.  It was strange, but was such a special moment for me. 

Sleep: Hard to sleep on my side the whole night.  I usually end up back on my back, but then just roll back to my side.  And getting up to go pee at least 2 times a night.

What I miss: Diet Coke

Cravings: None, yet.

Symptons: Tired in the afternoons, can't walk very long without my feet and back hurting.  And sitting at my desk all day makes my tail bone hurt like crazy! Occasional heartburn.

Best Moment this week: Feeling baby poke me!
