B2 Bumpdate: 19 Weeks


Technically, this week we are officially half way through this pregnancy which is crazy talk!  We are scheduled for a C-Section at 39 Weeks, so we lose a week off your normal 40 week timeline! Ahh! We got a tentative date of July 7th at Noon, but of course, we have to wait until that week to see how busy the hospital is and to make sure we can get a room.  It's so weird to have an official end date!
Also as you can tell,  I forwent pants this week.  After a fiasco I had earlier in the week, I wanted to stay as far away from pants as possible.  While getting ready for one of my appointments, I managed to wrangle myself into some jeans.  Now, I fully expected the jeans not to zip or button, which was no problem because I had planned to use the rubberband trick anyways ... the problem was my hips. Apparently they've been widening these last few weeks and while I got the jeans on (I'm still not quite sure how?) there was no way these babies weren't coming off without a fight.  I prayed and prayed that my doc didn't ask me to move my pants at all to check the baby because they weren't going anywhere.  He didn't, thank god  ... however, I did venture home with full bladder and had to wrestle them off, so I'll just let you figure out how that ended.



How far along?  19 weeks, 4 days

Total weight gain?  7.8lbs,  I noticed the pounds are packing on quicker these days.

Maternity clothes?  Not quite, but definitely no real pants anymore.

Stretch marks?  Not yet, still holding pretty strong.  I haven't been nearly as itchy this time either so that helps.

Sleep?  Has been awful once again.  I cannot find a comfortable position to save my life.  I have a pillow shoved every which direction and if I'm comfortable, the baby isn't ... if he's comfortable, I'm not.

PEAK of the week?  Good news from all appointments this week!  Very much welcomed after stressing so hard!

PIT of the week?  Stress!  We had some really important appointments this week that I've been stressing about for weeks, and of course the day before my anxiety was sky high.  So, being able to get them out of the way and all with good news was such a relief!

Big Sister?  Doing great! Getting big, we had an appointment for her as well this week and I can't believe how much she's grown since 15 months!

Daddy?  He's doing great as well, he's got a stressful few weeks coming up so I'm trying to make sure my hormones are in check.

Miss anything?  This beautiful weather we've been lucky enough to have has been making me miss Spring & Summer so bad!  Hope it sticks around for a while!

Movement?  Tons of movment and they are getting bigger and bigger by the day!  Daddy actually felt his firs kick the other night.

Food cravings?  E V E R Y T H I N G ! Good gravy, if its food, I want it!  Heck, if it isn't food I want it!  I just want ALL the things!

Anything making you feel sick or queasy?  Not eating quick enough tends to make me nauseous but that's about it these days.

Gender?  Boy! We get to confirm March 16th! So excited to see our little guy! And, finally we'll be able to reveal his name!

Symptoms?  Dry skin and out of breath this week!

Belly button in or out?  Still flat.  This is the question y'all look forward to the most isn't it? Lol.

Happy or moody?  Despite the stress of those appointments, I've been pretty dang happy!  The only time I seem to be moody is when I'm hungry, however, that isn't abnormal for a not pregnant me.

Looking forward to?  March! So many big things are happening in March!
