21 Weeks Pregnancy Update

April 4, 2018
How far along:
21 weeks

Baby is the size of a:
Carrot or a baseball hat. That’s pretty big!

Total weight gain:
21lbs

Maternity Clothes?
Still wearing both

Stretch Marks?
Not yet.

Sleep?
Weird and vivid dreams and getting up once for the bathroom. I also feel like I don’t get any deep sleep anymore, every time I need to turn, I wake up. 

Best moment of the Week:
Katie coming home and celebrating Easter with Fox. I can’t believe we will have another child next Easter and I already ordered his Easter basket! We also did a little bit of baby shopping this week, it was the very last day our Babies R us was open and they had everything 85% off. It was kind of sad leaving that store for the very last time, because I have so many good memories going there…from creating our first registry and baby shopping for Fox to safety and breastfeeding classes. I really liked that store!

Movement:
All the time, especially when I lay down at night. 

Food Cravings:
Salad this week. 

Belly Button in or out:
In, but definitely flattening out. 

Gender:
Sweet baby boy!

Symptoms:
Nothing new. 

Anything Making you queasy or Sick?
Nothing. So grateful for the way I feel right now!

Have you Started to Show yet?
Depending on what I wear that day, I can either look super pregnant or not pregnant at all! Comparing the belly bump to Fox’s pregnancy, I feel like they’re about the same size. 

What I miss:
Sleeping through the night and some days I really crave soda. 

What I'm looking forward to:
Starting on the nursery! Unfortunately, our contractor is on vacation right now, so he hasn’t even come over yet. 

What I'm not looking forward to:
Nothing.

  1. I think you are definitely showing and have the last couple of updates! I am a baby belly fan though so perhaps I have an eye for it lol.

    We are sad about our Toys R Us closing too đŸ˜•

  2. Look at that beautiful belly! I've been reading your updates from my iphone and I always mean to comment but I don't get back to it (until now!). We're so sad about Toys R Us and Babies R Us too! They sent Gracie a coupon for her birthday and it made me sad that this would be the last year we could take her there with her birthday money to pick a toy. I can't believe you're already 21 weeks! Time is flying!

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

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 ...
