Bump Day: Week 17

 
How far along? 17 weeks, 1/2 way to our goal… Memorial Day. 
 

Sleep? Beginning to be a little inconsistent but still tired all of the time. 
 

Maternity Clothes? My Mom did some shopping for me, so now I’m pretty set… Thanks, Mom! 


Stretch Marks? No, still putting cocoa butter on twice daily.
 
Best Moment this week? Getting out of the hospital, see earlier post here.

Miss Anything? Sushi, its something about the things you can’t have.


Movement? No, but I think it will be any day now.
 

Size of the Babies? Three little Apples!
 

Food Cravings? Asiago cheese bagel with cream cheese. 
 

Morning Sickness? Things are looking better on the nausea front.  The last time I threw up, it was on a nurse and that wasn’t because of morning sickness… see last post.
 

Gender?  Three little girls. 
 

Bed Rest?  Temporarily, last Thursday and Friday.


Limitations? No more playing with Ryley girl and that makes us sad (her mostly).


Labor Signs? Had some contractions last Thursday after my procedure, but they are gone.
 

Weight Gain? 9 lbs. 
 

Pregnancy Symptoms? Stretching around my stomach. 
 

Belly Button In or Out? Still In, but flat… so so close to poking out and I’m only about 1/2 way there. 


Wedding Rings On or Off? Still On 
 

Mood? Glad I’m not nauseated anymore.
 

Looking Forward To? Decorating the nursery… we have finally made some decisions so the work should begin soon. 


What Brian is Saying: At 17 weeks, the babies begin to hear my heartbeat and voices around them, so naturally Brian must announce his presence, “Hey babies, its Dad!” right up against my belly.
