19 Weeks

I felt our little babe kick this week!!

19 weeks and 2 days to be exact. Since about 16 weeks I have been wanting to feel our little one so badly and it finally happened. 3 little kicks in a row and I knew it was our babe! I even made Jaim go get me a glass of ice cold water because I read that makes baby move more. Haha I told Jaime  the reason why I needed the ice water and he laughed and told me to be nice to baby!! Anyways, it was amazing and now I find myself sitting still a lot waiting for more baby kicks. I can’t wait until Jaime can feel them too <3

We have our 20 week anatomy scan tomorrow! It makes my heart so happy knowing we get to see our little nugget. This is the appointment we can find out gender! Back story, before we found out I was pregnant Jaime and I agreed that we would keep the gender a surprise until birth. Jaime has this vision in his head of the doctor handing us our baby and saying either “It’s a boy!” or “It’s a girl”. Well since growing this little babe in my belly, I now want to know so bad if it’s a little boy or a little girl but Jaime is still team surprise (shocker if anyone knows Jaime or the rest of the Becher family haha). I guess we will find out in about 20 weeks! Let the waiting begin…

 

Nursery Update

We ordered our rocker this week! I am so so excited about it and hope so badly we love it. It is a double rocker so Jaime and I can sit in it and read to our baby together which is so important to me. I can’t wait for those nights! Crossing my fingers it works out! We also made a trip to Ikea this week for some furniture. I had a dresser “hack” that I found and was planning on trying and of course they recently discontinued one piece of it so it wasn’t going to work out so now we are getting one from Target instead.  Anyone that knows me knows that I literally plan my whole life out ha. I try and be so organized and I had my Ikea list preset (because lets face it the place is a zoo) down to what isle everything was in. Jaime couldn’t help but laugh because I am literally the worst shopper ever. Even when I try and plan it out perfectly, it never works out ha. I should really force myself to online shop only from now on. I had plenty of other items on our Ikea list anyways so it was still a trip well worth it! Last update, baby’s closet remodel is done! I wanted to get as much storage as possible so I came up with a little design and with the help of our friends, we made it happen! I will plan to share the design and how we did it soon!!

 

19 Week Update

How Far Along: 19 Weeks on October 14th, 2017

Maternity Clothes: Just one tank top so far. I keep eyeing up some maternity leggings though!

Sleep:  Sleep is good but I usually am up at least once for the bathroom!

Best Moment This Week: Getting to see our little babe!!

Miss Anything: Spicy Italian Subs! My doctor said I can have lunch meat if its fresh (like we purchased that day or from subway) but it still scares me a little so I avoid it!

Movement: YES! 19.2 weeks and finally some kicks <3

Cravings:  Pasta has been my biggest craving lately. I mean really any carbs at this point haha.

Aversions: Chicken and Mexican Food (except rice haha I will always love rice)

Exercise: This is a sore subject ha. I go for a decent amount of walks but other than that, I just don’t have the motivation to push through. I told Jaime I need him to literally stand next to me and force me to keep going haha.

Have You Started to Show Yet: Yes! It’s and its so weird!

Gender Prediction: Girl – for no actual reason haha its just what I think. Although I have never been right when guessing gender so it’s probably a boy ha.

Belly Button in or out? It’s like half and half haha. It’s only a matter of time until its completely out.

Wedding Rings on or off? On

What I’m most looking forward to: Jaime getting to feel Baby B kick!

That’s all of my updates for this week. I can’t believe on Saturday we are HALFWAY! 21 weeks to go!

Love,
