Finished off a full 17 weeks and beginning my 18th week, I feel pretty good. My Mom is visiting me, while my Dad is also here but for work. So I've got my mom feeding me tons :)
This week, they say the baby is about the size of a TURNIP!
A big Korean favorite for pregnant and breast-feeding moms is
MiyukGuk, Seaweed/plant soup. It definitely taste better than it translates, so my mom had my uncle in Kwangju, Korea send me a BIG box that included this and some other good for you items (Gim - Seaweed, think California Roll wrapper and MyulChi - dried anchovies).
And of course, it's what my momma's been cooking! I love having her here... nothing feels as good as home cooked food while pregnant! and she's been cooking us up a storm ... I'm glad the Baby will get good Korean food while in the womb, it will get him/her ready for all that is in store for her/him when s/he arrives! :)
Have a great time with your mom! It's awesome that she's here to share this special time with you.
