17 Weeks

How far along? 17 Weeks
Total weight gain: 5 lbs
Maternity clothes? hair tie trick on jeans/shorts. Honestly always in workout leggings for Barre or scrubs for work. 
Stretch marks? not yet... using Mustela Maternity Stretch Mark Prevention Oil
Sleep: Night shift.... always having a stuffy nose with this allergy season... sleeping as good as expected
Best moment this week: just feeling overly excited/happy about everything right now & the reality that Baby boy is really coming.  I was standing in line at Chipotle and it hit me when I was hanging in line by a dad with 4 kids and something about the scene excited me so much thinking not much longer and I will have my little buddy on my hip and going everywhere with me... even to the line out the door Chipotle trip. Also girls at work pulled out the ultrasound.... that was funny to see him sucking his thumb and moving all around.
Miss Anything? A cold beer at the baseball game that we went to with the work crew. Summer is going to be a bitch. For someone who doesn't drink that often... you really miss when you absolutely can't.
Movement: Fluttering..bahhhh
Food cravings: Honey mustard on anything. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Marinara sauce.... smell of Mexican food. Chick-Fil-a. 
Gender: BOY
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Feeling a bit of what I think is round ligament pain. Random tweaks if I move fast or stretch a certain way. Pulling patients up in bed and having to use my core is a weird feeling. 
Belly Button in or out? flat... not so deep anymore. 
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY! House renovations are going down. Currently sick, can't breath, coughing, sore throat. Cried this morning because I couldn't swallow and was just really pissed because I knew I needed to eat something but couldn't because of the pain. 
Looking forward toTurks and Caicos trip coming up! Everything house related woo!

Holla at the mess because all we've been doing is slaving to the kitchen remodel
