We are chomping at the bit over here in anticipation of finding out what we are having!!! 18 more days...18...did I mention we only have 18 days left? It feels like an eternity!!! Until then I guess I will have to settle for the anticipation of our next appointment this Friday. I am excited to hear the baby's heartbeat again.
Either this week or next I am going to survey my students and ask them to guess what I am having and also what I should name the baby and chart their responses. I will take a picture of my chart and put it on here for anyone reading to have a good laugh. I can only imagine what 32 five-year-olds will say. Last time I asked them they unanimously agreed I was having a girl and that her name should be Annabelle!:)
Also, I finally got around to taking my monthly belly shot this weekend...only one week behind! Woot!:)
How far along? 17 weeks.
Total weight gain: I will find out this Friday...I am still guessing 5-10ish?
Symptoms: Feeling great, just wish I could find a comfortable position to sleep in.
Maternity clothes? Still mainly pants...I am working a few maternity tanks into the rotation though!;)
Best moment of this week: Feeling tiny flutters, hoping they get stronger soon!:)
Food cravings: Soft pretzels and Feta.
What I miss: Drinking Coke any time I want!:)
What I am looking forward to: 18 Days until the BIG ultrasound!!!!!!

Baby continues to beef up. Now she's about 5.1 inches long and weighs about 5.9 ounces.
your baby at 17 weeks
- Her rubbery cartilage is now turning to bone.
- And she's growing some meat on those bones -- putting on some fat.
- She's growing a stronger, thicker umbilical cord, too.
Here is what the bump is looking like at 4 months:
