19 weeks

I am 19 weeks and feeling more and more pregnant every day! If I wear tight shirts you can definitely tell I have a baby bump now. I haven't felt pregnant so getting a belly is so exciting...it's starting to feel real! Steven touches my belly all the time. He loves that our baby boy is finally starting to make his appearance. I have been having a hard time not being able to sleep on my stomach. My belly isn't big enough to be in the way, but it hurts to lay on it so I have been turning from side to side. Steven surprised me and ordered me a Snoogle! It's a pregnancy pillow and I LOVE IT! It makes sleeping on my side so much more comfortable. I would recommend this pillow for anyone, pregnant or not! Only one more week and we will be half-way there to meeting baby bear ;)

How far along? 19 weeks

Best moment of the week? Feeling tiny little movements in my belly. 

Food cravings? Sweets! I've made cookies twice within the last week. 

Food aversions? None. I am always hungry!

Symptoms: Muscle pain in my stomach and I'm pretty sure he is hanging out right on my bladder because I feel like I have to go to the restroom constantly. This is not so good when seeing clients back to back at work.
