Week 19

December 14th, 2013

How far along:
19 weeks

Baby is the size of a:
Mango

Total weight gain:
Still haven’t weighed myself, because our scale broke. I will find out at our appointment next week!

Maternity Clothes?
Nothing new.

Stretch Marks?
Not yet.

Sleep?
Still pretty good. I’m having weird dreams though!

Best moment of the Week:
Our friends gave us the exact bedding we wanted for the nursery, which was way out of our budget. They bought it for one of their sons who never slept in his crib, so it’s basically brand new! So sweet of them!
We also set a date for our baby shower and picked out some invitations…it’s crazy how fast this time is flying by! And even more crazy that we’ll have a baby shower…I never thought we would get there!

Movement:
I’ve been feeling all kinds of weird things in there, but I can’t tell if it’s the baby or not, so for now, I’m still waiting!

Food Cravings:
None.

Belly Button in or out:
In.

Gender:
Sweet baby boy!

Symptoms:
Same old, same old.

Anything Making you queasy or Sick?
Thankfully not. Those first four months were horrible and I’m so glad I feel better now.

Have you Started to Show yet?
Katie keeps commenting how huge my stomach is compared to how it used to be, but I still feel like it’s tiny, considering that I’m almost half way through this pregnancy.

What I miss:
My clear skin. And lunch meat.

What I'm looking forward to:
Getting the nursery ready and christmas!

What I'm not looking forward to:
The holidays being over so soon…this year went fast!

Weekly Wisdom:
Setting up a baby registry is a pain in the butt. It seems like there are a million and one things we need to research before making a decision.


Wie weit:
19 Wochen

Baby ist so gross wie eine:
Mango

Insgesamte Gewichtszunahme:
Ich konnte mich nicht wiegen, weil unsere Waage kaputt ist, aber wir werden es bei unserem Arzttermin naechste Woche heraus finden.

Umstandskleidung?
Nichts Neues.

Schwangerschaftsstreifen?
Noch nicht!

Schlaf?
Immer noch ziemlich gut. Ich habe allerdings sehr seltsame Traeume.

Bester Moment der Woche:
Unsere Freunde haben uns genau die Bettwaeche fuers Baby geschenkt, die wir haben wollten, allerdings war sie fuer uns viel zu teuer. Sie hatten sie fuer ihren Sohn gekauft, der allerdings nie in seinem Babybett geschlafen hat, von daher ist sie so gut wie neu! So lieb von ihnen!
Wir haben ausserdem einen Termin fuer unsere Babyshower festgesetzt und uns Einladungen dafuer ausgesucht…es ist verrueckt, wie schnell die Zeit vergeht! Es ist noch verrueckter, dass wir in ein paar Monate eine Babyshower haben werden, ich haette nie gedacht, dass wir irgendwann einmal eine haben wuerden!

Bewegungen des Babys:
Ich fuehle alle moeglichen komischen Dinge in meinem Bauch, aber ich habe keine Ahnung ob es das Baby ist oder nicht, von daher bin ich noch am warten! 

HeiĂźhunger:
Nein.

Bauchnabel drinnen oder draussen:
Drinnen.

Geschlecht:
Ein Junge!

Symptome:
Genau wie letzte Woche.

Gibt es etwas, wovon dir schlecht wird?
Zum Glueck nicht! Die ersten vier Monate waren schrecklich und ich bin so froh, dass es mir nun besser geht!

Kann man dir die Schwangerschaft ansehen?
Katie sagt mir staendig, wie gross mein Bauch im Vergleich zu frueher ist, aber ich habe immer noch das Gefuehl, dass er ziemlich klein ist, wenn man bedenkt, dass ich schon fast die Haelfte der Schwangerschaft hinter mir habe.

Was ich vermisse:
Meine reine Haut. Und Wurst!

Worauf ich mich freue:
Das Kinderzimmer einzurichten und auf Weihnachten!  

Worauf ich mich nicht freue:
Dass die Weihnachtszeit bald wieder vorbei ist…dieses Jahr ging es ruck zuck!

Wöchentliche Weisheit:
Eine Baby Registry zu erstellen ist eine Menge Arbeit! Es sieht so aus, als braeuchten wir eine Millionen Dinge, die aber vorher erst noch im Internet nach Bewertungen gecheckt werden muessen!

  1. Wow, I feel like a failure as I didn't know about the lunch meats. I was given a list of foods to avoid at my 8 week midwife appointment but lunch meats weren't on it. I couldn't eat them during the first trimester anyway but now I have a turkey or salami sandwich every day for my lunch.

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

We took some family pictures this fall!

August iPhone dump

Some moments from my August... Coffee treats during busy shifts! Fox had a pool playdate with some friends. First day of middle school! Unfortunately I had to work and couldn't send him off that day, but my favorite co-parent came through with some pictures from the bus stop. Found a bunch of these selfies on my phone haha. On the way to school one morning, middle school is rough apparently. A quick brunch with friends to celebrate the end of summer break! My sweet friend Nikki gave me this bucket full of beautiful dresses that she had outgrown. A lot of them still had tags on them! Dinner date with the boys, they preferred playing a game together instead of talking to me...haha! Homework struggles have begun again! Sweet treats after school while we wait for Finn to get off the bus. Unfortunately their buses arrive an hour apart from each other, so we have a lot of waiting around because the bus stop is too far from my house.  He was helping me make schnitzel! We watched Bad guys ...
