Bump, Week 19

The kicks are getting stronger and more frequent, and I'm loving it!

BabyCenter.com has this image of what babies look like at 19 weeks gestation. Looks like the little pup is running out of room!

The only "interesting" news I can think to share from the last week -- and it's really not that interesting -- is that after almost 20 weeks of no sickness whatsoever, I got food poisoning this weekend! Our church gave out date night kits on Saturday with lots of coupons, date ideas, fun questions to ask each other on your date, and other neat stuff, so we decided to take that kit to our favorite restaurant. When we got there, we found that they have a new chef, the menu is twice as expensive, and the food is about half as tasty as it used to be!

Now I should mention, I got food poisoning from this restaurant once before. I know, I know, I'm like a dog returning to its... umm, vomit. But the first time I got sick, I sent an email to the restaurant to let them know something on my dish must have been contaminated, and they truly made it right. I got emails from the chef and the management and a personal call from the chef. He assured me they discarded anything that may have been the culprit and offered to buy my meal the next time I came in (which they did AND MORE at a later date). They were totally exonerated, in my mind.

So yeah, Saturday night was not fun. You better believe I Googled "food poisoning while pregnant" and read a gajillion pages to make sure Baby G was okay. Turns out I probably have nothing to worry about (and I'm still feeling kicks, so that's reassuring).

Guess everything was just going too smoothly for me! ;)

One week from today we'll find out the sex of Baby G. Don't forget to vote in the poll in the right-hand column if you haven't already! Looks like Team Pink is winning.
