Baby H2 {17 weeks}

halloween night with my little wild indian!

How far along: 17 weeks

Net weight gain/loss: 5 pounds

Maternity clothes: I am just wearing workout clothes and stretch pants so I haven't had to break them out yet.

Stretch marks: none - can it happen twice?!

Belly button: innie

Sleep: up for the bathroom atleast 2-3 times a night... or 5-7 times a night! Some nights are good, others... not so much!

Baby movement: I think I am feeling some!

Gender: We go November 16 for our u/s! I cannot wait... although we are thinking about not actually 'finding out' until December 2 when we have Hadlea's family birthday dinner. Can we wait that long?!

Food cravings: Mexican (given), cereal, plain blueberry Eggo's, sandwiches, chocolate milk, tea and Coke icees.

Food aversions: anything that is not listed above! :)

What I miss: Feeling 100%! I am starting to feel SO much better, but I'm still really tired all of the time. I am guessing with two kids I will always feel that way, huh?! :-)

Looking forward to: Finding out the sex... (well... to be honest, I am actually looking forward to spending Thanksgiving in Alabama, but I figured that was a pregnancy related question!)

Best moment this week: Halloween, definitely! H was awesome and did so good trick or treating! She even brought up that Baby Mola boy or Baby Mola girl will get candy next year! (And yes, we still refer to the baby as Mola, although, we have told her it could be a girl or boy so she says, "Baby Mola boy or Baby Mola girl" each time she refers to it! That is a mouth full for a 2yo!)

Milestones: The baby is 5 ounces and about 5 inches long. The size of a turnip!

My weekly email said this for pregnancy comments: "I get tired of everyone saying pregnant woman are beautiful! I've never felt less attractive! I hear about woman who love being pregnant, and I'm just puzzled by them."

Ummm.... I do not remember talking to babycenter.com, but I am pretty sure they took the comments right out of my mouth! :-) I am VERY thankful to be able to have my own babies, but it is hard work! I just don't think it is a time that I feel 'beautiful' or 'attractive'! And although I LOVE, carrying my own baby... I do not LOVE throwing up every. single. morning!
