Week 19

Not an overly eventful week this week... Bending over at work is becoming tricky with the bump being so hard below my belly button and I have had a week long headache which water and rest doesn't seem to help! 

As I suspected my bump is slightly smaller this week because we actually took it BEFORE breakfast rather than at the end of the day!

What is the baby up to this week? The sensory development is exploding and his or her brain is creating areas for touch, smell, vision and hearing (and may be able to hear our voice already!!). His or her arms and legs are in their right proportions with the rest of the body and the hair on his or her head is sprouting and the vernix is forming!

Maternity clothes? Just the two pairs of jeans at the moment and they are amazing! Actually had a girl at uni comment that she liked me jeans... We both had a good laugh when I pulled my top up to show her the massive waistband I had rolled down!

Stretch marks? Nope!

Sleep: Still very tired and no matted he much I sleep in I just seem to be exhausted by 3pm in the arvo. The last few nights I have had tingly hands that wake me up and the pins and needles take ages to get rid of!

Best moment this week: We saw my belly move! One afternoon while we were laying there with Nick feeling the kicks I thought they were so strong we could see them... 2 seconds later and POP up jumped my belly! I love when I can 'feel' where Baby T is by the super hard pointy bulge on the left or right!

 
Miss Anything? Soft cheese! We went to a farmers market today and they had the yummiest looking Brie and Camembert there but I couldn't taste it :-( 

Movement: YES!!!!!!!! So much! It is a constant reminder that he or she is in there! I love that I will be sitting in a lecture or standing at work and I get a couple of big kicks... It's like me and Baby T have our own secret club at the moment!

Food cravings: Nothing really! I am loving apples though they seems to give me heartburn!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week

Have you started to show yet: Not really which is okay for now because I haven't told anyone besides the bosses at work !

Gender prediction: Still girl!

Labor Signs: No!

Belly Button in or out? In

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!

Looking forward to: WEDNESDAY!!!!!!!! I can't wait to see our little bub again!!! And to be able to start saying him or her and he or she in the blog and in conversation! And to go shopping!!!! And to start the nursery!!!! We have had a definately girl name picked out from the very beginning so it will be nice to KNOW it is that name OR if it is a boy we will have to start finding names we agree on!! We have the middle name set.. Just the first name to go!

Well that is all for this week! 

Love from us (all 3 of us) xxoo
