I can't believe here in another month I'll officially be half-way done with this pregnancy. Some days I feel like it's flying by and others I feel like it's going at a snails pace. I'm sort of confused on which way I WANT it to be, because hoping the weeks go by fast is sort of like wishing my kids' lives away. Especially C's. I was pregnant when E was two as well and most of my memories of that year are centered around being pregnant. I hate thinking that when C is older and I think back to when he was an adorable 2yr old, being pregnant will be all I remember. I'm in a weird, melancholy mood, I guess.
Let's see.
-Weight gain. No idea since I'm too afraid to actually weigh myself..lol. I'm afraid that I'm not doing as well as I should be this time around. I weighed myself (with clothes on, at 9 at night) on the scale in the bathroom. It put me at 105, so that scale says I've gained about 5lbs so far. I'm making myself pull the Wii Fit out in the morning. I'm only going by what the doctors scale says, but at least I'll get an idea. I hate how much I am bothered by gaining weight, especially since I've had no problems getting it back off after labor. Le sigh.
-Movements. A little bit. I feel him 2-3 times a day most days. I have to be laying on my side to feel him at home and, strangely enough, when I'm driving I get little flutters and kicks. I think C was moving more at this stage, but I try to remember that this baby is probably a bit smaller than he was at this stage. With E I didn't feel movements until 16w 6d.
-Cravings. Fresh fruit and vegetables. That is actually a good craving but I eat them so fast that I run out and then have to settle for fruit roll-ups and cereal, which is NOT good. Haha.
