17 weeks

This post is a few days over due, but better late than never. There aren't many changes going on. I feel as if my belly is getting a little more preggy looking, it's probably wishful thinking though. I'll get a picture up next week to compare.

One thing we've been discussing a lot lately has been names. I never ever imagined picking out a name would be so incredibly difficult. I had no problem whatsoever naming my barbies and baby dolls when I was younger, haha. Tye and I tend to agree on most names, the ones we don't agree on just get pushed off the list. So thankfully there haven't been any issues in that department. I am not sure why, but we have found it much easier to come up with girl names. I think we have a list of five that we would use in a heartbeat. Its the complete opposite for boy names, we have maybe two or three names that we think are ok, nothing that we are over the moon about though. So, I am sure this means we will have a boy since the naming decision will be harder on us. I know we'll find the perfect name eventually, I am just being my typical impatient self.

17 week stats



How far along? 17 weeks!

 How big is baby? The size of an onion!

 Total weight gain/loss: I believe that I am just a few pounds shy of my starting weight.

 Maternity clothes? I feel like most maternity clothes look silly on me, there isn't a big enough bump there to justify wearing them yet.

 Sleep: I don't sleep too well. I am trying to find a way to get comfortable so I can hopefully sleep a little longer.

 Best moment this week: Nothing too major this week.

 Movement: I don't think so. I have felt "something" a few times but it wasn't stong enough for me to be 100% sure that it was the baby.

 Food cravings: Pasta!

 Food aversions: Veggies still.

 Anything making you queasy or sick: This changes daily.

 Have you started to show yet: Yep. I still dont think it's obvious to many people. I think I look like I just need to hit the gym or give Jenny Craig a call.

 Gender prediction: I am still going with a boy, I think Tye is starting to feel this way as well. Most people are still guessing girl, we will know in one week :)

 Labor Signs: No

 Belly Button in or out? In

 Symptoms: Nothing new in the symptom department.

 What I’m looking forward to: Our next appointment, which is one week from today. We be able to see our little one and finally find out if it's a boy or girl!

 What I miss: I miss sleeping through the night. I think those days are far behind me now, haha.

Milestones: Another week down!
