Going on 17...Bump Update!

{Sweater-Free People}

How far along? 17 Weeks, 3 Days {6 days today}
Baby Size: An onion...5 lbs and 5 oz
Total weight gain/loss: 4-5 pounds...I'm noticing that the scale is slowing making its way up!
Maternity clothes? Still enjoying my leggings...thinking about buying some maternity leggings soon.
Stretch marks? No...thankfully!
Sleep: Sleeping well still!
Best moment this week: Feeling good and telling more people I work with!  It's like Christmas Morning every time!  :)
Miss Anything? Honestly...I miss enjoying food the way I used to.  It's so hit or miss on what sounds good, which is pretty sad.  I'll tell hubby that baked potatoes sound awesome for dinner only to realize, I'm really craving chicken nuggets.  I'm all over the place!  Good thing I have a husband who's super patient with me!
Movement: Actually no.  Maybe last week was a false alarm?  I haven't feel anything as significant as what I thought I felt last week! 
Food cravings: This week...soy chai lattes sound yummy!  Still loving PB&J sandwiches too.
Have you started to show yet: I'm definitely getting rounder, though I can conceal it pretty well.  Still fitting in my pencil skirts at the moment {which is probably hard to believe from my photo!}
Gender: Hoping to find out soon!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: I think this week I was a little more moody than usual...see below:
Looking forward to:  So I am looking forward to my doctor appointment today because it got cancelled last week...much to my chagrin.  I haven't seen my doctor since Thanksgiving, though I did get my health scan at 11 weeks...so it's been a little while.  I'm just SO ready to finally check in and hear how I'm progressing!  Fingers crossed for us today!

OH and so many of you asked to see my hair with my new curling wand {last mentioned here}...so here it is!  I'll report back later this week with a "second day" hairstyle so you can see how well it holds.

It is weird how much I like these posts. I am just so happy when people are getting ready for the biggest change in their lives. You look amazing! This week I heard i'm gonna be an aunt so I'm excited to see her grow and hear her stories as I love yours!

Jenna said...

The bump is definitely starting to stick out more now - and you pull it off wonderfully!

Good luck with your doctors appt, I can only imagine how anxious you must be to get an update and maybe even find out if baby is a boy or a girl!

You little baby bump is adorable. And only 4/5 pounds--that is pretty good. :) Good luck with the doctor visit today...hope all is well. :)

Jill @ ACharmedLife said...

You make preganancy look like a breeze! I am amazed by your "weight gain"... aka... your lack of practically any gain at all :)

enjoy your checkup with the doctor!

Katy said...

Looking cute! And don't worry, you will start feeling big kicks soon enough!

pam {simple details} said...

It's the cutest little baby bump! Fingers crossed you get to find out the gender at your appt.!

Carrie @ Hazardous Design said...

Ah, you look amazing!
Is it weird that I'm craving chicken nuggets too, even though I'm not pregnant? Lol. Too bad I can't use that as my excuse :)

Kim @ keller-creative said...

Tara {The Silver Lining} said...

Awww you look adorable!! I love reading the updates, and hopefully you get to see the doctor soon.

Also, my hair is so straight and doesn't hold curl well at all. My niece got a wand for Christmas, and we played with my hair a little, but I'm curious to see how your hair holds up and what you think. :)

Such a cute outfit, and I love the hair style!

Molly said...

You look great! I wasn't sure if the movement I felt around 17 weeks was the baby or indigestion- ha! It's so hard to know! Now (at ~21 weeks), I can definitely distinguish it and my husband can even feel kicks from the outside. Best part of the pregnancy so far :)

Andee Layne said...

you really are glowing love! xo

Jeremy and Megan said...

LOVE your weekly baby bump updates!! :)

If you think you felt the baby last week, I'm sure you did. At first I would feel Olivia every once in a while. Then by 19 weeks I felt her 24/7. When I stopped feeling her move around as much at 26 weeks, that's when I knew there was a problem.

Don't stress, he/she will be moving around like crazy in NO time! :) GL at your dr appt :)
