How far along? 17 weeks
Weight gain/loss: Yeah we're disregarding this section, weight gain is causing me to stress out & when I talked to the doctor last week she said she's happy with where I am so I'm not stepping on the scale anymore!
Sleep? Still waking up at least once a night to pee.
Best moment this week? Feeling like a normal person again (for the most part). Looks like all-day sickness is gone & energy levels are creeping back up.
Movement: Unless you count gas & random muscle twitches, none. Hopefully it will be starting soon.
Food cravings: Nothing new this week, although I'm pretty sure I ate my weight in Halloween candy over the weekend.
Belly button in or out? Still in.
What I miss? Being able to sit for longer than 45 minutes without my back aching. Come on, who gets a backache from sitting?!
What I am looking forward to? Feeling Squishy move, books say it should start around 16 weeks (which was last week) so I find myself poking my stomach just to see if it gets Squishy moving.
Milestones: Squishy's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord is growing stronger and thicker. Baby weighs 5 ounces now and is around 5 inches long from head to bottom. He/she can move it's joints, and sweat glands are starting to develop.
What I'm nervous about: Our babymoon. Hurricane Tomas hit St Lucia & has caused some major damage so I'm hoping this doesn't affect our vacation.
