Week 21 survey

How far along: 20 weeks + 6 days
Total weight gain/loss: +1 kg since last week
Maternity clothes: None yet, but they're coming very soon! I had to resort to tying a hair tie around the button of a skirt and one pair of jeans already.
Stretch marks: Nope
Sleep: Good. So good, in fact, that I am having a hard time getting out of bed in the morning. The snooze button on my alarm is definitely friend and foe at the same time!
Best moment in the last week: Without a doubt: Seeing baby move Monday night!
Movement: See above. In general, baby is still pretty quiet, but I do feel random nudges now and then. Such a great feeling! Can't wait for more!
Gender: Survey currently says girl. ;)
Food Cravings: Nothing in particular. Trying to cut back on my sweets.
Belly Button in or out: In
What I miss: Still clear skin.
What I am looking forward to: More kicks/pokes from baby and vacation to the US in 2 weeks!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Wear loose-fitting clothing. It makes you feel skinnier. I should have followed my own advice today! Ugh...
Milestones: Again, without a doubt: Actually seeing baby move inside!
Baby Brain Moment of the Week: Not sure if it has to do with "baby brain", but I went out to dinner Wednesday night. Ordered fish, vegetables, and potatoes with a homemade herb butter. After I was almost finished with my meal, my cousin said, "Did this butter come with your dinner or mine?" It tasted soooo good too! Darn it!
Belly-button ring Status: Still in
Labor Signs: Hopefully not until the end of May or so!
Weekly Belly Pic: It's pretty official that I will be buying a new camera when I go to the US. Until then, I will have others take pictures of me.


(January 21st - 20 weeks + 5 days)
I think my belly definitely had a growth spurt this past week!

  1. I was going to suggest that you get a camera when you're home next month - you've got a lot to capture in a few months :-)

    Also, my suggestion on maternity pants when you go shopping, don't bother getting the short panel pants, they may be comfortable now, but when you're in your 3rd tri they're going to be sooo umcomfortable. So go all out and embrace the full panel :-) :-) Love ya girl, you look fantastic!
