How far along? 21 weeks
Baby size: TW1 was 275g and TW2 was 280g at last week's scan
Total weight gain/loss: 3kg's at last week's check up
Maternity clothes? I've still only got 1 maternity top and 1 pair of maternity pants. Which I love! Other than that, still living in my leggings and loose dresses. I must buy more comfy pants and more maternity tops.
Stretch marks? Nothing yet.
Sleep: Sleeping well although my back hurts a bit now. And it feels like it takes ages for me to roll over.
Best moment this week: Cuddles with Josh. I have a fancy pregnancy pillow now, but nothing beats wrapping my arms and legs around Josh. Or resting my head on his shoulder. Always gives me the best sleep ever.
Movement: Feeling lots of kicks or little flailing arms, from both inside and outside. And occassionally I'll feel a hard spot on my tummy, and I'm pretty sure its a head or bottom :) I usually pat or rub it until the baby moves into a different position.
Food cravings: Salt! I have started eating green apples with sea salt. So random. And actually tastes really yum! Almost as good as the half ripe mangoes with salt and chilli that is popular in Fiji and S.E. Asia.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing much :)
Have you started to show yet: Yes! No hiding it. Love the shape/size I am now :) I must make the most of this "cute bump" stage before i get MASSIVE.
Gender: Uncle Steve has predicted girls, but still anyone's guess at this stage
Symptoms: Need to pee alot. I feel a bit slower in general (physically, not mentally!). Bit achey around back and pelvic area. But generally feeling great :)

Labor Signs: No signs yet
Things I miss: sushi and alchohol. I pass a sushi place every day and it looks and smells so yum. Drinking as much tea as I want. Sleeping on my belly.
Belly Button in or out? outie. No denying it now.
Wedding rings on or off? On

Looking forward to: the weekend and having a bit of a sleep in! And water walking tonight.
