19 Weeks

How far along? 19 Weeks 4 days

Baby Length:  approximately 6 inches (that's half a foot!)

Baby Weight:  about 8 1/2 ounces

Baby is size of:  A Large Heirloom Tomato  

Weight gain/loss: Up of 10.2 lbs since pre-pregnancy (130 lbs to 140.2 lbs). Broke 140 lbs.  Yeehaw!

Maternity clothes?  Fighting them!  I'm busting out of my maxi dresses because my bust is so full.  One of my favorite I.N.C. dresses is literally splitting in the middle from my new cleavage.
Stretch marks? Nope.  Lotion lotion lotion. And repeat.
Sleeping?  I'm sleeping but not great.
Best moment this week: Jake and I bought a house today!  Until June 18th we officially own 3 houses...crap!  Seriously, though, we are so excited about the purchase of our new home in Sandy Springs and now we just need to figure out where we're going to live this summer after we get kicked out of ours in July until the new house renovations are done in September or October...and yes, I remember that the baby is due in October.
Miss anything? Wine.  I really miss my wine.
Feel any movement? YES!!  I feel little kicks and punches frequently.  Sometimes it feels like I can feel the baby "swimming" from one side of my belly to the other.  The little movements are close enough to the surface that Jake has been able to feel them sometimes, too.  Its such a weird feeling but I love it :)
Food cravings: No.  I've had some weird food aversions this week.  I'll eat, but nothing really sounds good and stuff kinda grosses me out.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Food.  But I keep eating anyway.
Gender: The big scan is next week and I think we've decided with certainty not to find out and keep the baby's sex a surprise.  Our friends are not happy with us!
Labor Signs: None.
Symptoms: Bloated, tired, headach-y.  Lower back pain like I have never experienced in my life.  I had my first pregnancy massage yesterday (Jake got me a gift certificate for Mother's Day) and I was really hoping it would help with the back, but in the car leaving the massage place the back pain was even worse.
Belly Button? In
Wedding rings? Tight every day now.  I definitely need to drink more water.
Happy or Moody? Grumpy and a bit overwhelmed.  I'm so excited for all the big changes in our lives right now, but there are so many of them at the same time its a little much to process!
Looking forward to: Being HALFWAY DONE baking this baby on Sunday :)  I have my 20 week OB appointment with Dr. Marcus on Monday and my Big Anatomy Scan with Dr. Mann at Northside Hospital on Thursday.  Lots of prayers in the meantime.

Picture coming tonight when we get back from dinner...
