Last weekend my parents came to Atlanta and we went shopping for baby furniture. What an awesome gift they gave us by furnishing the baby's room. Matt and I are truly blessed.
Here are some pictures of the furniture we bought:
They also surprised us and bought us the stroller/car seat travel system that we have been looking at!
Yes, the stroller is red and black -- hey, it's what it came in!
I know people have been asking to see baby bump pictures -- so I apologize in advance for the jacket. In all fairness, it was cold!!! But if you look closely, you can at least tell there is a little bit of a bump there. And despite the cold, yes, I am wearing flip flops. I found out yesterday that only a few of my shoes fit so my feet must be a bit swollen. :-(
These next questions seem to be a fun way to keep everyone updated on where we are and what's going on with Baby Wooley...
How far along? 19 weeks today
How big is baby? My What to Expect app says the size of a mango, or about 6 inches and a half a pound
Maternity clothes? I'm entrenched in the maternity jeans. I can still wear some of my regular stretchy dresses, but I pretty much live in my yoga pants because they are TOO comfortable!
Sleep: This is definitely something I struggle with. I am a stomach sleeper and it's starting to get uncomfortable sleeping that way. I tend to wake up on my back, which kinda freaks me out because I've read it's bad for the baby -- but my mom says that's a new thing. A person can't lie on their left side all the time -- that is horribly painful on my hips!
Best Moment this Week: Other than the shopping trip, I have more energy (FINALLY!), although I still enjoy an afternoon nap.
Movement: I think I've started feeling the baby move. It's weird to describe so I can't be sure. But last time we were at the doctor, he said the baby was kicking up a storm.
Food cravings: I've gone through a few phases. I only wanted steak and asparagus at one point. I'm definitely enjoying McFlurrys (and any kind of ice cream to be honest). And right now if I think of guacamole, I have to have it.
Food aversions: Again, a few phases. I went through an aversion to any kind of salad dressing, but that seems to be gone.
Gender: We find out next TUESDAY!!!!
Pregnancy symptoms: The morning sickness is finally gone. Yeah, it lasted about 17 weeks -- yikes! I've had some stretching pain -- and I am stuffed up all the time (who knew that was a pregnancy symptom?).
Belly button in or out? In
What I miss: Coffee...I definitely miss my skinny 2 Splenda latte from Starbucks
What I'm looking forward to: Finding out the gender and starting to buy clothes!
Upcoming appointments/events: Gender/anatomy scan next Tuesday!!
Weekly wisdom: Don't listen to other people's horrific labor stories like how they were in labor for 48 hours. Focus on the fact that my sister only pushed for 45 minutes and hope that is genetic!
Milestones: Matt says my belly is looking rounder, and my mom says I've filled out. (For someone who was trying to lose weight pre-pregnancy, it's a difficult line of being happy to be showing, but discouraged to have gained weight!)
Coming next time: Perhaps a belly bump picture, gender reveal, and maybe some nursery pictures!!
