17 weeks

how far along? 17 weeks

how are you measuring? At my doctor's appointment this week, she said I measured 16w1d when I was 16w4d.  

size of baby? size of an turnip (5 in, 5 oz)

heartbeat? 155 bpm (at my 16 week appointment)

total weight gain/loss? The doctor said I gained 2 lb, but my scale says I've gained closer to 5 lb.  My doctor didn't seem too concerned, so I guess I'm doing okay.

maternity clothes? I ordered some maternity scrub pants this week since my regular ones aren't very comfortable when I have to wear them below my belly.

stretch marks? I noticed a few small ones around my belly button.

sleep? Some nights are better than others.  I still toss and turn to get comfortable.

best moment this week?  Having my 16 week appointment and finding out we're having a boy!

movement? I think I've felt a few flutters, but don't really know what it's supposed to feel like.

food cravings? macaroni and cheese

gender predictions?  It's a boy!  My doctor will do the anatomy scan at my next appointment, but we had an elective ultrasound done at 16w6d because I was too impatient to wait to find out the gender.

what I miss?  nothing really - I've just been enjoying my pregnancy so far.

what I'm looking forward to?  shopping for Douglas - Even though people say there's not many choices for boy clothes, I've found lots of cute things.

how are you feeling?  still feeling pretty good; It was very exciting to share that we were having a boy with our family and friends.
