18 Weeks


How far along: 18 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 13 lbs (eek!)
Maternity clothes: Still able to fit into some work clothes with the help of the bellyband and loose summer dresses are the best! Otherwise, all maternity for this baby bump!
Stretch marks: Negative
Sleep: Sleeping a bit better these days... 
Best moment this week:  Feeling the baby move!! 
Miss anything:  My oh-so-loved vanilla chai...although I do cheat and have one every now and then.  Shhhh!!
Movement: YES!!!!  Not totally consistent and not every day yet, but definitely feeling the baby...and I LOVE IT!!!
Food cravings: Hot & Spicy V8 Tomato Juice and North Dakota summer sausage.  
Anything making me queasy or sick:  The heat was not my friend this week.  :(    
Gender prediction:  I'm starting to lean towards boy, but I'm not going all in with that guess yet either!  Boon is still thinking it's a girl!
Labor Signs: Negative.
Symptoms:  Hunger, hunger and hunger...I'm so hungry all of the time!
Belly button in or out:  We'll go with in, but it's getting close. :( 
Belly button ring in or out: I made it another week with the ring in!! 
Wedding rings on or off: On!
Happy or moody most of the time:  Especially happy this week! 
Most surprised about: How much movement I'm actually feeling.  It's amazing the change in just one week. 
Looking forward to:  Finding out the sex...only 1 week from Monday!!  (and my birthday!)

  1. That baby bump is looking very boyish :-) but then again, very different than how I carried! But that's not saying much given our bodies have always been polar opposites!! I want the 30th here so bad.. But that means I start work, so I'm torn!! But so excited!! I'm still boy on this end... Don't know why.. But I am! A little girl would be so fun.. So I'm just happy!!
