Pregnancy Week 21

21 + weeks down, 18 and some change to go! This past week went by fast and as you can see the long weekend made for a late post...so yet another day closer to our next weekly update. I am still feeling really good, just getting tired again, mostly after I work out. We got a lot of sleep this weekend- maybe too much, so that might be attributing to the tiredness lately. I'm so excited for what a quick little week this will be. 3 working days and it will be baby appointment time! Get in your last minute poll predictions and place your bets... ;)

How far along?: 21 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Uh, about 15 lbs. I think we've been gaining 1.5 a week for the last few...
Maternity clothes?: Yes and no.
Sleep: Eh, hasn't been as great this week. I wake up a lot and have been getting tired super early in the evenings.
Best moment this week: Just having the baby moving all the time. D getting to feel it again.
Movement: Crazy, all the time. Pretty sure my kid is part ninja.
Food Cravings: Nothing this week.
Gender: Finding out FRIDAY!!! This week I'm leaning towards boy.
Belly Button: Innie
Stretchmarks?: No newbies
What I miss: I miss not needing to nap after workouts. So drained.
What I am looking forward to: Friday, Friday, Friday :)
Weekly Wisdom: Always have a water on hand...it is getting HOT!
Milestones: Baby's now the size of a banana! Baby's digestive system is busy creating meconium (a tarry black substance made of swallowed amniotic fluid, digestive secretion, and dead cells), which will fill the first diaper after birth. And, if baby is a girl, her womb is now stocked up with her lifetime supply of six million eggs (the number will drop to around one million by birth).


Another beautiful set of pics...haha...I dress like a hobo pretty much any time I'm not at work:




There you have it. I'll be back later today for a weekend recap post! Have a great day. :)

xo,
