19 weeks...

19 weeks 2 days!
How far along? 19 weeks 1 day
Total weight gain? 7+ lbs...We will get an official number on Wednesday but I don't know if I will share.  I feel huge!
Maternity clothes?  Just the jeans that I am now irritated I bought a size too big.  I guess maternity runs big to make you feel good because these jeans are a size 6 and there is no way I am size 4 right now but that is what I need.  They just sag every where.
Sleep? OMG!  The Snoogle. AMAZING!!  Totally worth every penny.  I thought the Snoogle would help me not turn over onto my back but I still wake up on my back if I fall asleep on my left side, which freaks me out a little as I get bigger.  But, like a good little boy, he reassures me he is okay by kicking away in there!
Best moment of the week?  Feeling real movement in there!  He is an active little guy.  I laid on my bed for hours the other morning just feeling him wiggle all around.  By far the best moment yet!  I have even felt him a few times on the outside!  I have been trying to get Michael to feel him but no luck there yet. It's a matter of time, I'm sure!
Miss anything?  Nothing!  I really am loving every moment of this!
Movement?  See above!  We went to Titanic and I had to pee five times during the movie!  There was one time where I swear he kicked my bladder just right. I thought it was little too early to be dealing with that!
Food cravings?  Still loving Jimmy Johns but wouldn't really call it a craving.  I really feel grateful that I don't crave anything.  I still don't feel like anything in particular but I'm glad that I don't want McDonald's all the time.  French fries always sound good but I don't give in too much.
Anything make you queasy or sick? My gag reflex has kicked into high gear.  I threw-up at work because of something kind of unpleasant that I had to do, which I didn't even end up doing (thank you, Sharon).  I can control it if I don't have anything in my stomach but if I do...I usually don't win that battle. But overall, I have been feeling great!
Labor signs? None yet, thank goodness.
Gender?  BOY! Confirmation on Wednesday and then on to shopping!
Symptoms? Just big, sore boobs! Ha!
Happy or Moody? Happy!
Looking forward to...? Ultrasound on Wednesday!!! I can't wait to see our little man on screen again! We are praying everything measures right on schedule and everything is normal.  
Realization of the week? There is a baby inside me!!!  He is so wiggly and I love it!!  It makes it so real to finally feel him.  Michael can't wait to feel him.  He says he is super jealous.  Also, I have the best hubby ever!  Since his surgery, he hasn't been able to do much and it has made me realize how much he does around our house.  He can't wait to be up and at 'em again to get started on the nursery.  I love him!
