Week 17


Junebug's "skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — his lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as an onion), and he's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. He can move his joints, and his sweat glands are starting to develop." Junebug's little fingers and toes now feature one-of-a-kind prints.



How far along: 17 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: - 1.6 lbs. (from pre-pregnancy weight)
Maternity clothes: Dress pants for school...yet my jeans still fit. :)
Stretch marks: I don't think I have any yet!
Sleep: Getting enough...but getting up about every 3 hours to go to the restroom
Best moment this week: Having dinner with great friends 2 nights in a row :) 
Movement: I think I feel the little flutters that is Junebug moving around
Food cravings: Spicy M*kesells chips (thanks to Rob...)
Gender: ??? (We find out on Jan. 17--as long as Junebug cooperates)
Labor Signs: None!
Belly Button in or out: In
What I miss:  Being able to sleep on my belly and back
What I am looking forward to: Finding out if Junebug is a boy or a girl :)
Milestones: Bought some more maternity clothes...
