Pregnancy Highlights

How far along? 21 weeks 5 days

Size of Baby? 10 1/2" long the length of a carrot. It says 12 ounces but that was the weight when I was at the Dr a week ago, so I'm guessing up another ounce or two?

Gender? A BOY!!!! Hayes Olson

Movement? It's so funny, since I had my ultrasound and found out how he is positioned, I feel him moving around all the time. I'm not sure if it is just that I know it is him now, of if he is just getting stronger and I can feel him.

Sleep? I have been sleeping great but I have been having the craziest dreams. Chris says I thrash around all night.

Symptoms? My lower back has been hurting, but that is probably caused by all the thrashing around I am doing in my sleep.

Cravings? Nothing really. Igor at work has been bringing "for baby" raspberries from his garden everyday. One day he didn't bring them, and I was going through with drawls. haha. Hayes is going to come out a raspberry or at least with a raspberry birth mark. (I had one when I was born)

Best Moment of the Week? Finding out that we are having a baby boy! Chris is so excited now, he calls me a couple times a day just to ask how his son is doing. I am also loving feeling him move around, I don't understand how I hardly felt anything last week.

Callie Nicole over at http://www.throughcloudedglass.com/ is having a giveaway.

She also has a super cute baby named Wyatt. So go check her out.

Pregnancy Highlights

How far along? 20 weeks 3 days. Oh my gosh I'm halfway there!

Size of baby? 10 inches head to heel. 10 1/2 ounces.

Gender? We find out the day after tomorrow!

Movement? I am pretty sure I have felt what feels like bubbles popping, I have heard that is probably baby.

Sleep? Every once in awhile it is hard to get comfortable, but once I'm asleep I'm out!

Symptoms? I still have a stuffy nose most of the time.

Cravings? Food usually still doesn't sound the best. I'm just generally not very hungry, unless I'm at work and there's nothing to eat. haha

Best Moment of the Week? Well it hasn't happened yet, but I'm sure it will be when we have our ultrasound on Thursday and then I think mom and I are going down to Babies R Us this weekend!

Pregnancy Highlights

How far along? 19 weeks 3 days

Size of Baby? 6 inches head to bottom. 8 1/2 ounces.

Maternity Clothes? Still none yet. Which is a good thing, maybe I won't get too big!

Gender? We find out next Thursday, as long as baby isn't a stubborn Swede!

Movement? Chris thinks he feels stuff but I'm not so sure.

Sleep? Still sleeping great, no need for positioned pillows yet.

Symptoms? My nose is always kind of stuffy and I sneeze a lot. Maybe hormones, maybe all the hay that's being cut.

Cravings? None really. I got my marionberry cobbler, I haven't had much of an appetite though, I eat way less than I did before I got pregnant.

Best Moment of the Week? We got all moved out of our other house. All of our stuff is at the new house, it just isn't put away. Haha all of the trucks are still loaded down.

Pregnancy Highlights

How far along? 17 weeks 3 days

Size of Baby? 5.1" Head to Bottom 5.9 ounces (big jump from last week) Baby is about the size of an onion.

Maternity Clothes? I bought a maternity top to wear to Shannon and Ryan's wedding, but I just thought it was cute, I don't need it.

Gender? We will find out July 21st.

Movement? I don't know, maybe, maybe not

Sleep? I can still fall asleep whenever wherever, I love sleep

Symptoms? None really, I still feel good

Cravings? Nothing really, blackberries still sound good though

Best moment of the week? I went to the Dr all by myself and got my blood drawn all by myself. That doesn't exactly sound like a good moment. But my blood work came back negative and the risk of birth defects are still less than 1 in 10,000. Yay

Doctor Appt

I went to the Dr. on Friday. We listened to the heartbeat, which was in the 160s, he was able to find the heartbeat right away. I have heard stories where people went to the Dr. but he couldn't find the hearbeat, so I was kinda holding my breath that we could. Everything looked great, and I actually went and got my blood drawn all by myself! First time ever! I scheduled an ultrasound for July 21st, yay, hopefully we will be able to tell the sex.



The rest of the weekend was spend on the back of Chris's Harley. The weather was so nice, I think baby enjoys all the fresh air. haha
