19 Weeks

How far along? 19 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: =( I've been avoiding the scale.

How Big is Baby?: A mango.

Maternity clothes? The best feeling when you're pregnant is when you're halfway through and you still don't fill out your fat pants.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: Not so bad last night.

Best moment this week: Seeing our nursery start to come together.

Movement: Waiting...

Food cravings: Not many. I've wanted ice cream but I can't call it a craving. Eating gluten made me feel horrible and curbed the cravings.

Gender: 21 weeks.

Labor Signs: No way.

Belly Button in or out? In.

What I am looking forward to: 20 week ultrasound and nursery progress and a laundry room.

Weekly Wisdom: Eat.

Milestones: 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.
