Bump Update #2: Week 17

17 weeks on February 13, 2016

17 weeks with Lucy vs. Baby #2

How far along: 17 weeks & 4 days

Size of baby: About 5 inches long, weighs about 5 ounces, and is the size of an onion (or the size of your open hand)

Weight gain: 6.5 lbs

Maternity clothes: Still squeezing into my regular clothes for now but am trying to wear looser tops so it doesn't look as obvious that my pants are little tight

Symptoms: Peeing a lot and my stomach has been upset (although I tend to have a lot of stomach issues so that might not actually be pregnancy related)

Gender: Todd & I have both been having a gut feeling it's a girl but it's really a toss up at this point!  We find out in 6 days though!

Exercise: Working out 6x/week & still feeling really good (despite having to stop to pee usually halfway through my workout)

Food cravings: Fruit, cereal, and toast

Food aversions: Nothing

Movement: Little flutters here & there, still waiting for some stronger/bigger kicks

Sleep: Have had a few nights of waking up every hour or two to get comfortable (I really hate sleeping on my side) and I think I'm going to have to break out the body pillow in the next week or so

Looking forward to: Finding out the gender in less than a week!!

Best moment of the week: Lucy came over to me one morning and randomly said she wanted to kiss the baby so she lifted up my shirt and kissed my belly--she's going to be an awesome big sister!
