Sweet Baby is now the size of a Large Heirloom Tomato! 

Oh yeah, there’s a baby in there!  I’ve been feeling kicks and jabs this entire week.  I love it!  Hubby hasn’t been able to feel the baby yet, but we’re hoping he can very soon!! Come on baby!    This week I started getting extremely congested, and found out that it’s another amazing symptom of being pregnant.  If it’s not that it could be the spring like weather triggering my allergies earlier than usual.  Hope baby doesn’t mind the sneezes and sniffles – mommy is so sorry!  Just a few more days until we find out if our sweet baby is a boy or girl!! 🙂

19 Weeks 1 Day

About our baby: Our sweet baby’s sensory development is exploding! Her brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. Some research suggests that she may be able to hear your voice now, so don’t be shy about reading aloud, talking to her, or singing a happy tune if the mood strikes you.  Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches, head to bottom, about the size of a large heirloom tomato!   Her arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of her body now. Her kidneys continue to make urine and the hair on her scalp is sprouting. A waxy protective coating called the vernix caseosa is forming on her skin to prevent it from pickling in the amniotic fluid. (summary from babycenter)
About me: So congested, pass the tissues please!  Aside from that I’m loving the beautiful weather and cannot wait until it’s really warm so I can do more walking outside.  Feeling energetic at times, and then lethargic the rest of the time!
How far along? 19 Weeks 1 Day  
Total weight gain:
  4lbs
Maternity clothes? Not yet.
Stretch marks? None yet
Sleep: Lots of tossing and turning especially with the congestion.
Best moment this week: 
When I didn’t feel baby all day I started rubbing my belly and felt some definite kicks.  So adorable!
Worst moment this week: Losing the ability to breathe from my nose.
Miss Anything? Over easy eggs on toast.
Movement: Yes! 🙂
Food cravings:  Grapefruit.. I eat around 2 a day..
Anything making you queasy or sick: Raw ground meat/chicken.
Gender: We’re finding out FEBRUARY 29TH!!! 😀
Labor Signs: No.
Symptoms: Congested, tired.
Belly Button in or out? Same, in.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or Moody most of the time:  Happy! 🙂
Looking forward to: Wednesday, anatomy scan –  making sure baby is healthy and let’s us see their gender!!

    I’ve been suffering from congestion, too. It’s much worse at night. It’s one of the worst feelings in the world, but I’ve found Sambucol and Maty’s All Natural Vapor Rub to be somewhat helpful.

    Such a cute baby. You’re very lucky to experience such heavenly bliss of having a baby close to you, literally. I know how excited you must be feeling from all the movement your baby is having. Hope (s)he comes out healthy.
