Pregnancy Update: 21 Weeks

Happy Black Friday! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed their celebration (however they chose to celebrate)! This photo was taken before any food was consumed, by the way! :D


How many weeks are you now?
21 weeks + 6 days (actually, today makes 22 weeks but this update is from 21 weeks)

 
Baby's size?  

Banana - per the What to Expect app

Symptoms:

Occasional cramping and round ligament pain when I move too fast....it also wakes me up at night make any sudden movements. Also occasional leg/foot cramping.

Exercise: 

Still run/walking but using a support band now on every run.

Clothes: 

I'm glad I wore bigger clothing non-pregnant because all of my tops still fit! :)

Cravings?

Rice Crispy Treats

Aversions? 

Still fish.

Any Movement?
Poking and jabbing - usually when I'm sitting down after eating! :)

Sleep:

Very good! For some reason I no longer wake up in the middle of the night to potty and that's been going on for a few weeks now...I'll take it though!

Purchases:

I haven't officially purchased any additional baby items yet although I'm sure that will change today...especially now that we know Baby Seal is a boy! If you missed details of our Gender Reveal, you can check it out here!

What I miss: 

Sleeping on my back.

What I’m looking forward to:
Next week's ultrasound (it's on Wednesday). We should have a little more information on Baby Seal's size and if there's a problem or not. I tell you, these two weeks of waiting have been torture. I just want a yes there's problem or no there's no problem at all. Prayer and faith has gotten me through, that's for sure. Please continue praying for us if you think about it! I definitely appreciate it!

Best Moment of the Week: 

Finding out that Baby Seal is a BOY! Now time to let the nursery planning begin!! YAY!

Up next is Baby Seal's first Black Friday shopping experience - we'll see how long I last this year!
