21 Weeks

21 Weeks

 

How far along? 21 Weeks

Maternity clothes? Mixing maternity and non-maternity.

Sleep? Ok, other than Aspen waking up and the occasional potty break.

Best moment in the last 3 weeks? Sonogram! Everything on the baby looked healthy and good.  Heartbeat was at 156. Feeling a lot more movement here and there and Joe felt the baby move from the outside just last night!

Miss anything? Sleeping on my stomach

Movement? Yes, movement is becoming a little more regular. So amazing and fun to feel.

Food cravings? Loving cold fruit and ate deep dish pizza that was so good I can’t even put it into words in Chicago. Could go for that everyday! haha

Anything making you queasy/sick? nothing

Gender? GIRL! We are so excited to welcome another little princess into our family.

Labor Signs? Nope- tentatively scheduled for the 1^st of November.
Symptoms? Not really too much, I’ve been feeling pretty good these last couple weeks! Just the regular tiredness and achy. Oh and my hips pop all the time now.

Belly button in or out? In and getting flatter.

Wedding rings on or off? On- hoping to get to leave them on the whole time this time as well, but we’ll see.

Happy or moody? Happy!

Looking forward to? Finished Aspen’s big girl room, and now looking forward to putting the baby room together. She may or may not already have a closet full of clothes arranged by type and size…

*next dr apt is July 5^th- ready to hear this baby girls heartbeat again! I think I also have to schedule my glucose test at that apt and I’m not looking forward to that.

*had a blast on the girls trip to Chicago, looking forward to the 4^th with family and the NKOTB, 98 degrees and Boys II Men concert (don’t be jealous Joe- haha) in less than a month.

Daddy moment?   On my trip to Chicago, Joe was on full time daddy duty. Took Aspen to the park and on her choice for a date night – Dairy Queen! They had a great time together and I’m so thankful that I have the best husband ever along with the best daddy.

Big Sister moment? She loves her baby sissy so much already. She will hug and kiss my belly and tell her goodnight all on her own all the time. She’s already into helping me so much. When we went through all her old clothes and the new ones that we got she helped me organize and hang them up. She’s going to be the best big sister. She’s told me that she’s excited for the baby to sit in the back with her in the car and also for the baby to take baths with her.
