Major milestone this week: I had to go buy maternity pants! I feel like it happened so quickly too! My little trick with the hair tie was starting to struggle last week, so I figured it was time to go all in! I was so afraid that all maternity clothes were awful, billowy tents, but I got a cute pair of boot cut jeans and some skinny jeans. And they're comfortable too, PHEW! Shirts are still good to go for a while I think, but then again, that's what I thought with my jeans....
Good timing by the girl scouts this week because I've been going through my box of Samoas pretty quickly! They never tasted so good. I've also gotten my fill of Mexican food and I couldn't have been happier! After weighing myself I've gained another 2 pounds this week and my little bump is growing fast!
Pear: Baby Newton is about 5.1 inches long and weighs around 5.9 ounces! Continuing to grow and grow; putting some meat on those bones this week. The skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord is growing stronger and thicker. Baby keeps moving his or her joints, although I still haven't felt anything definite yet. The other big development this week is that the baby's sweat glands are forming.
I can't believe you're already 17 weeks! Not long before 2 become 3 <3
