19 Weeks-- It's a BOY!!!



How far along? 19 weeks!
Total weight gain: 6 lbs. I lost weight with the stress of losing Wiley, but I've put it back on and my doctor says I am right on track!
Maternity clothes? Yep & they are incredibly comfortable believe it or not. I still wear my normal scrubs to work, but the tops are getting tight on my belly- but I love it :)
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: My body has finally adjusted to sleeping on my side, so I sleep pretty well throughout the night. I don't even wake up to pee, so I'll count that as a blessing!
Best moment this week: We found out we are having a BOY!!! (My intuition was off, but I'm okay with that!)
Miss Anything? Not at the moment. I'm honestly loving being pregnant & I feel great, which is another blessing!
Movement: Not tons yet. At our ultrasound, the Dr. said baby is only measuring around 18 weeks, not 20- so they pushed my due due to September 30th, which is why I haven't blogged for 2 weeks, but I'm posting this "19 week update".  Baby was moving like CRAZY on the ultrasound, so I'm sure once he grows a little more, I'll be feeling him often!
Food cravings: Not really…I've been loving all food :)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Gender:  BOY!!!

Labor Signs: Definitely not yet & let's keep it that way!
Symptoms: Getting lightheaded if I don't eat often, so I snack all day.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On  

Happy or Moody most of the time: It's been the weirdest past 2 weeks. Complete joy for baby boy and complete heartache for Wiley…so I suppose you could call me moody, but I blame that on the circumstances, not on being pregnant.
Looking forward to: Nate & I have picked a name and we will be telling our families this weekend…WOOHOO :) Let's hope they love it, because we do!



Side note: I don't really have many pictures of the gender reveal party besides the ones of us actually opening the box.  I thought the collage above that my sister, Abby, made was the best!  We had a wonderful party with just our immediate families and already know baby BOY Carpenter is SO loved! Can't wait to reveal the name with everyone!

xox,
