the most exciting part of this week is i think i am starting to feel flutters. only when laying down and completely still, but i have felt them a few times now. maybe that is why i can't sleep, it happens at night time when i am trying to sleep, but then i get too excited! this seems early for me, but they say second time moms can feel or recognize them sooner and from what i have read in my pregnancy apps, this can happen around this time. i forgot how cool it is to feel your baby move and kick inside your belly. and when you can start to feel these movements regularly it can be helpful to elevate some of the nervousness for me.
i still have not gained any weight, and am in fact still down 2-3 pound from my pre-pregnancy weight. i think that will start to change soon! i got an intense craving for poutine this week, i think this weekend i will have to satisfy it! i guess that is what you get for watching "carnival eats" late at night! i have developed a bad varicose vein on my inner thigh, i will mention that to my doctor next week, but i don't think there is much you can do for that. and i am working on healing my skin this week. i am loving my new hydrating products and can already feel a difference! i am now officially caught up on my pregnancy blog, as i enter my 17th week next week!
