21 Weeks


*This week the baby is:   12.3-15 oz and about 7.5 inches crown to rump
*How far along:  21w3d
*Due Date: September 24th, 2013
*Total Weight gain/loss:  21 pounds, 21.5 weeks.  I've been holding pretty steady the last week and a half FINALLY.   Wish I didn't have to calorie count.
*Maternity Clothes:  I have found some tops in boxes as I was getting ready for our garage sale we had.  That was a lovely surprise.  
Sleep:  Usually once I'm awake I'm awake.  
*Best moment this week:  Hmmm... taking off a couple days of work to work on the house giving us a super duper long May long weekend.  
*Movement?  Oh yes.  Off an on throughout the day and more and more while I'm up and moving.  Still mostly when sit or lie down though. 
*Food Cravings:  No not really.
*Symptoms:  Still feeling a bit sick every once in a while.  Usually not for very long.  I have to go to the optomotrist again as I have had weird flashing a few times that don't last long, and also in bright light I have cloudy dots in my vision, but go away once I'm not looking in bright daylight, but need to make sure my retina isn't detatching etc, which could be really bad for my eyes.  So that's a prayer request!  
 Gender:  Yup it's a boy or girl!
*Labor Signs: Nope.
*Belly Button in or out:  Still in, J thinks it looks weird :)
*Feeling toward Pregnancy:  I feel pretty good about things.  Liking being pregnant a bit better now that I'm a bit more energetic and not as sick.
*What I miss:  I don't know, still the whole thing about not feeling as attractive.
*What I'm looking forward to:  Summer sun and fun!!!!!
*Milestones:  Not sure.
*Any new stretchmarks: My boob's stretch marks from before are darkening still on the side.  I started getting these tiny spider vains on the right side of my belly.  On the side of my hips I have some small little red ones. 
 *Things We Have Gotten:   Nothing for baby recently.
