its been a while but I haven't had the time really. I've been back to work (barely) and been packing. I HATE packing. I'm excited to be moving to a place with heat. If it's this cold now, how cold will it be in the dead of winter? :\ I dunno what to put here but because I doubt I will update tomorrow I will put my little baby update...
Baby's now the size of a mango! (19 weeks)
Vernix caseosa, a greasy white substance made of lanugo, oil, and dead skin cells (yum) now coats baby's skin, shielding it from the amniotic fluid. (Picture yourself after a nine-month bath, and the need for protection makes sense.) You might get to see the vernix at birth, especially if baby is premature
Crunchy, cloth diapering, breastfeeding, baby wearing, attachment parenting momma with a happy and whole baby boy as well as an angel baby!

16 weeks! YAY! Baby's now the size of an avocado!
Watch what you say...tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean she can now pick up your voice. A few more minuscule changes: Eyebrows, lashes, and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming.
Time to start humming and singing! Now that the baby can hear my voice!!

:)
My belly may be small, but I can tell you this: When I have to pee, It feels like there's a water balloon under my skin (because organs are now being rearranged to make space for uterus!), my belly is hard...HARD... My boobs have taken a break from being in extreme pain for now...not the nipples though, even the lightest touch, rub etc, feels like someone is trying to remove them!
What's nice is baby must be high, my jeans fit something lovely right under my belly.
I love that I'm now just starting to look more rounded without looking kind of flabby... I felt fat before and I was scared of gaining weight and then scared I wasn't gaining any but now I can't wait for that to happen! I can't wait till I'm waddle stage :)
My belly in profile...Not too big but definitely rounding out just under my bellybutton! When they checked fetal heartbeat he was right out in front so that's probably be where I carry!
My belly from my view, still just looks fat to me but at the same time it's cute....
