What’s going on this week:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1\/2 inches long \u2014 the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like she’s practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby’s eyebrows and lids are present now.<\/em><\/p>\n

My Update: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Due Date: November 4, 2011 \u2013 133 days to go!<\/p>\n

Weight Gain: +8 lbs (from pre-preg weight). Alright – that was a noticeable jump.<\/p>\n

Symptoms:\u00a0 Still with the peeing.\u00a0 Also, Lisa wanted me to mention that I have been extra emotional about TV shows and commercials…and now apparently about food, too.\u00a0 I brought home sandwiches for dinner tonight and my tuna fish sandwich tasted so fishy that I could only eat one bite and had to toss it. (Scott tried it and also said it was gross – so it wasn’t just pregnancy tastebuds.)\u00a0 I really wanted to cry about it, because dang it, I wanted that sandwich, but instead made I myself suck it up and make a PB&J.<\/p>\n

Cravings\/Aversions: None, really.\u00a0 I just want my food to taste good.\u00a0 IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?!<\/p>\n

Sleep:\u00a0 Great!<\/p>\n

I am loving: You know, so far, I have been really fine with people touching my belly.\u00a0 Granted it’s only been close friends and family, but I like it!\u00a0 As soon as a random stranger does it though, I might change my mind.<\/p>\n

I miss:\u00a0 Nothing right now…<\/p>\n

Movement: About the same.\u00a0 I feel him everyday, at different times.\u00a0 Now it’s just a matter of time before it changes from flips and flutters to kicks and jabs.<\/p>\n

New category!!<\/em> Nursery progress:\u00a0 So far, so good!\u00a0 It’s becoming more and more empty as the days go by!\u00a0 We bought a lamp at IKEA a few weeks back that I have since decided will go into the baby’s room, and today I ordered a picture off Etsy to go on the wall.<\/p>\n

Exercise: Scott and I went on a walk one night.\u00a0 Otherwise, I baked 18 dozen cookies on my regular yoga night and decorated 12 dozen of them on my regular pilates night.\u00a0 So….<\/p>\n

Diet:\u00a0 I think I had peanut butter and jelly too many times this week.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to: My next midwife appointment on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
