How far along? 21 weeks

How big is baby? 15oz according to my anatomy scan yesterday. Didn't get a length measurement as she wanted to stay curled up in a ball.

Total weight gain? 7lbs

Maternity clothes? Yes.

Stretch marks? Old ones, and they are getting itchy.

Sleep? Getting very broken sleep and it's hard for me to fall asleep initially. I get bad heartburn at night that wakes me up, and of course, the frequent trips to the bathroom.

Belly button in or out? In

Movement? Some thumping going on in there, getting stronger every time I feel her. I'm feeling her more and more, but it's still sometimes only every other day.

Boy or Girl? Three is a GIRL!

Food cravings? flavored ice water, ice, popcicles. It has been VERY hot out, so I want anything ice cold that I can get my hands on. I'm drinking 3x the recommended amount of water because I am sweltering all the time.

Labor signs? Not yet.

Symptoms? headaches/borderline migraines, exhaustion, swelling

Engagement rings on or off? On

Happy or moody most of the time? Moody, although it's getting better. I'm trying out some essential oils to help with my depression and anxiety.

Best moment last week? Seeing my baby girl at my anatomy scan yesterday. We caught her sucking her thumb.

Worst moment last week? The heat and the exhaustion. Yesterday was so hot, I sat in my room while my husband watched the kids, in my bra and panties. I couldn't bvreathe I was so hot. I also pulled a muscle and couldn't pick up my youngest son for 3 days.

Miss anything? I miss being able to sleep for more than an hour at a time.

Looking forward to? Feeling Valerie move more often. I have an anterior placenta, so I have a feeling it's still going to be awhile before I feel her often throughout the day.
