how far along: 17 weeks yesterday
how big is baby: The baby is the size of an onion. It's about 5.1 inches long and weighs a whopping 5.9 oz! :)
symptoms: I'm glad to say I've gotten rid of the gagging and not being able to eat. Now I'm hungry all the time! Last night I woke up with a bad pain in my right leg. I guess its from sleeping on my right side. I was tossing and turning and trying to get comfortable, it still hurt. I got up to use the restroom and I could barely walk. Today it's sore but okay.
cravings / aversions: I think I'm doing okay on this part. I'm craving fruits and anything I can get my hands on. I was hungry this morning so I stopped for a breakfast taco....I gagged when I ate the eggs. I guess I'm not quite ready for that yet.
movement: Last night when I was talking to myself trying to fall asleep :) I felt a small kick or punch. It was enough to shoot my eyes open lol But, I've only felt it once and I'm not 100% it was the baby, but its def. different from anything I've ever felt before.
gender: we find out on August 3rd, when we get back from vacation!
belly button: I still have an innie. I finally took my belly button ring out yesterday. It was kind of a sad moment. No, I don't flaunt it-but still-I've had it for like 8 years. Edgar was VERY happy to see it gone!
sleep: I'm having no problems sleeping right now. ::knock on wood::
what i'm looking forward to: Going on vacation to California for a family wedding and just to hang out. Then finding out the sex on August 3rd.
what i miss: I still miss food. As much as I'm eating I still feel like I'm not 100% back to the way I was before.
highlights this past week: Celebrating our wedding anniversary and realizing my belly "popped". It's crazy to see it but I LOVE staring at it!
