17 Weeks Tomorrow and Having Some Cravings!

Tomorrow I will be 17 weeks and the baby will be approximately 5 inches long. Where has the time gone?? I can't believe I'm almost halfway through my pregnancy. My belly hasn't really changed since my 15 week picture. I still look like I'm bloated. Some days it really doesn't even feel like I am pregnant. Sometimes I even forget! I think it will help make it more real when I start feeling the baby move ANY DAY NOW! Occasionally I sit and concentrate on my belly area to see if I can feel anything but I don't think I have felt it yet.

Our next appointment is in three weeks. They will probably be able to tell the gender by then and I hear we will get to see our baby for 1-2 hours! I'm so excited for it!

As I mentioned in my last post, I'm supposed to be gaining weight now. I've been making more of an effort to eat more throughout the day even when I'm not hungry or don't feel like eating. I think I've been having pregnancy cravings lately too! Usually they don't last long but for the past 2 or 3 days I've been CRAVING peanut butter rice krispy treats and so later today Michael and I will be making them :-). Yay! Oreos and milk sound good too.

Really early on in my pregnancy I would crave avocados but ever since then I haven't wanted anything really. I'm so happy to be getting my appetite back more. Just in time to pack on some pounds! Haha. Don't worry, I eat healthy things too!
