Week 17 and 19

I feel like I am getting bigger by the day now! I was fortunate to be able to borrow some maternity clothes from a friend which I have started wearing - they are just so much more comfortable and I know they will fit :)

Week 17

Week 19

I think I have felt the baby move a couple of times now but not enough to really be sure yet - probably not long for that though! I have also noticed that I don't think my belly button has much longer before it pops . . . yikes!

Week 15 and 16 Pictures

I have been bad at posting pictures and giving updates so I am a little behind. Pictures from week 15 and 16 are posted below. I don't think the pictures do my belly justice because I am definitely looking big now. Probably not big enough yet that strangers would necessarily think I was pregnant but I would say it is getting to be obvious to anyone who knows me. I kind of think I look more pregnant in clothes :)

Week 15

Week 16

I have been having back pain for a few weeks now so I visited a prenatal chiropractor Wednesday - I am very hopeful that it will help relieve the pain. I am planning to start taking prenatal yoga next week too which I am really looking forward to.

I had my 17 week appointment Friday - everything is still looking good. The heartbeat was much easier to hear this time and still absolutely amazing. I will get another ultrasound at my next appointment at the beginning of November - we are both really looking forward to that :) It will actually look like a baby this time instead of an olive :) We are not planning to find out the sex though - hard to believe we already could if we wanted to.

I met with a friend of mine a few weeks ago to get some information about cloth diapers and carriers. I got some great information and will probably start picking some up soon so we don't have to buy them all at once.

We have been keeping busy car shopping so we have something that can fit a car seat, two large dogs, and an extra large husband :) We are planning to get a Subaru Tribeca but we just need to decide which one we want to go get it. We have also started looking at furniture for the baby's room and we need to be deciding what colors we want to paint it.

We had the first snow at our house this week - can't believe winter weather is already showing up! Weird to think that by the time it is really warm again the baby will be here!
