Trust me, I’m on board with all the pregnancy wonderment these days. Bring on the silly preggo-lingo like “baby bump!” Sign me up for a babymoon. And I’ll take that push present please. But one thing you will not see from us is a gender reveal party. It’s not exciting enough that we’re having a baby but now we have to bake colored cakes and shove helium balloons in a box in order to celebrate genitalia? Come on people!
So without further ado, I’d like to unceremoniously announce that we will be welcoming a baby boy this December.
Although, many would argue that writing a blog about your pregnancy is equally as nauseating as those gender reveal parties. So sorry folks, just call me a Pinterest Parent! A Pinterest Parent of a little boy!
HOW FAR ALONG: 17 weeks
BABY SIZE: Pomegranate
GENDER: Boy
WEIGHT GAIN: 9 lbs.
WHAT TO WEAR: A lot of Old Navy maternity or stretchy skirts and dresses. When I do Belly Button myself into some jeans, I’m never more happy than the moment they come off at night.
STRETCH MARKS: Nope
BELLY BUTTON: In
WEDDING RINGS: On
SLEEP: Bedtime is my favorite… like of all things… that ever existed… in the universe.
MOVEMENT: Definite flutters taking place! I can feel him clearly most mornings like tiny bubbles popping in my abdomen.
MISSING: It was pretty hard watching everyone have a cool glass of wine or a cold beer on the Fourth but who needs alcohol when you can have an H2O cocktail- shaken, not stirred.
CRAVINGS: My love affair with cheese continues. And lots of fruit.
SYMPTOMS: Headaches come often though trying to ward them off by staying hydrated.
HUSBAND: So excited about having a baby boy!
FAVORITE MOMENT THIS WEEK: Seeing the little one again yesterday but much bigger and now officially knowing he’s a he. I have a son!
