17 weeks.

so here's a pic of my 17 week growing tummy.


i'm still wearing my regular jeans but i can't button them so i wear a bella-band. it's really kind of annoying so i should just break out my maternity jeans. i live in yoga pants or leggings everyday, but we went out to dinner tonight so i tried to look halfway decent. it takes some work these days especially since my pregnancy-induced ACNE is STILL here. so much for it getting better with the second trimester. i'm now a few weeks into the 2nd tri and it's really not any better.



the babe is about 5 ounces now (about the same weight as a turnip) and is about 5 inches long from head to bottom.
i am no longer nauseous. i feel pretty good and am not too tired. i haven't gained very much weight yet, but i'm sure i'll explode soon. i felt the tiniest hint of "flutters" last thursday night, but no real movements yet. really looking forward to that! i remember missing that once sk was born. i kept waiting to feel a baby moving all around in my tummy!
i don't have any real cravings, but i do eat one or two peaches a day. i also enjoy cheese alot - we've been enjoying trader joe's cheese selection because it's really good cheese without the gourmet cheese cost! i also have been enjoying my ben&jerry's froyo, but i'm planning on giving up refined sugar again for lent so.......there goes that special treat. it will be good for me though. i have quite the sweet tooth when i'm pregnant!

that's it! will post again in 2 weeks for the big gender reveal. i'll have some good pics of the little guy or girl to share, too.
