17 weeks:
How far along? 17w3d (onion)
Weight gain? About 5 lb
Maternity Clothes? Yes! I officially don't fit into any of my regular work pants/skirts anymore. And I have a few tops that are long enough to be worn with my maternity skirt and pants, but most are not, so I bought some maternity sweaters too (just 3).
Who have you told? We've told a few more people - some extended family and a few close friends.
Are you showing yet? Actually I think yes. I can still hide it if I want to, but in the past week I have grown a lot.
Any movement? YES!!!! I have even felt him with my hand a few times. Sometimes I feel little bumps, and sometimes it feels like someone wringing out a towel in my belly, and sometimes I get the feeling you get when your stomach drops on a roller coaster, but in my ute.
Symptoms: I had some scary episodes where my uterus was really hard for long periods of time (like 1-2 hours). They tested me for a UTI (negative) and checked my cervix and amniotic fluid (both fine). I have also discovered round ligament pain. Holyshit it's painful. I mean, it's fine, it's wonderful, but I'm glad my dr was able to tell me what it is because it hurts so bad it would be worrisome if I didn't know what it is.
Best moment this week: It's been a big week: 1. Feeling him move FOR SURE and 2. Finding out the Verify test was normal.
Major milestones: In maternity clothes, full-on outfits. Actually 'feeling' pregnant - my belly feels big, I have RLP, and I can feel the baby. Also, I finally started writing to the baby, something I started with my first pregnancy but have been to scared to do until now.
Major purchases this week: Maternity camisoles, sweaters, and tights.
Looking forward to next week: Mr. E coming back from a trip to Sweden so he can hopefully feel the baby move. Next appointment is my anatomy scan, not sure how that happened........
