19 Weeks Pregnant



Baby is the size of: A MANGO! (6 inches, .5 pounds)

Baby's Development: Baby's brain is actively growing and changing! This week it is working hard on developing baby's 5 senses. Baby's cartilage is hardening into bone, which explains why I can feel them moving inside my tummy this week! If baby is a girl, her uterus and ovaries have developed and are holding millions of eggs; if baby is a boy, his genitalia is still forming, but his testicles have already formed. 

Momma Symptoms: Feeling fine! This has been a pretty easy pregnancy, I feel so lucky. 

Weight Gain: +13 lbs

Health and Wellness: All I do is eat lol

Random Life Things: The best way to make time fly is to be BUSY! Working full time, raising a toddler, working on the new house, seeing family and friends regularly... I don't know where September went! I truly can't believe I'm half way through this pregnancy (since I'm a C-section momma, I'll most likely be delivering at 38 weeks). Additionally, we find out baby's gender this weekend! I can't wait to start buying onesies and decorating the nursery.

Sometimes I have a hard time finding them, so just do your best!  Meat/Poultry/Seafood: Grass-fed ground beef Chicken drumsticks or thighs Salmon Tilapia Bacon  Dozen Eggs Vegetables: Broccoli Cucumber Zucchini Squash Bell Peppers Jalapeno Brussel Sprouts  Spinach  Leafy lettuce Onion Tomato Avocado Fruits : Green apples Berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries) Lemon Other: Egg White protein powder Olives Olive oil Coconut oil Coffee Yellow m...

Atomic Habits Bullet Points

 CH 1: 1% analogy- focus small Progress- an ice cube doesn't melt, even when it heats up from 20-31 degrees, that one degree makes a difference, however, the other 11 degrees weren't wasted effort, they were stored progress/potential Plateau of Latent Potential - where most people give up- right on the cusp of success Forget Goals- focus on system instead The goal takes care of itself when the systems are in place Goals met are temporary and at odds with long term progress (yo-yoing)
