Week 19 Update


This week's fruit of choice is the heirloom tomato.  Flutterbug is about 8oz. or so now.  I'm feeling him/her all the time now.  Yesterday was pretty quiet with only a few thumps, but today was much better.  I know it's way to soon to be keeping track of kick counts, but I still like to know my little Flutter is thumping around in there.

Still emotional over random crap* and I have gas cramps so horrible that they wake me up at night.  Kenny has already started his "Pregger Momma" routine...he wakes me up early to give me two Extra Strength Tylenol, then runs a morning bath.  To be honest, it's pretty awesome, seeing as how my lower back is hurting when I wake up in the morning now.

I don't feel like I'm that big (the home scale is measuring me at 215, but the doc's office is higher than that one.  I like mine).  Either way it used to measure 219, so I think Oscar has caused me to lose a few pounds.  I am noticing that I can't stand for as long as I usually could before I start getting achy and tired.  Ah, the joys of motherhood...

From here on out it's just developing all of the systems and putting on weight in there.  I'm so excited about the ultrasound on Tuesday!

*Yeah, the boy made me cry, but I was able to laugh about it later.  Now whenever he does something I threaten to cry and blog about him.  That joke will probably get old soon, but for now it's funny!
