18 Week Update


How Far Along: 18 weeks & 4 days

Weight: I don't know, we will find out Monday at our ultrasound.

Maternity Clothes: I have been wearing some maternity shirts because my belly is very high up & I can still fit in my regular jeans =)

Stretch Marks: Same old stretch marks I've had since I was a teenager (damn genetics)

Sleep: Sleeping has become harder & harder lately. I have started sleeping with more & more pillows to increase my comfort.

Best Moment of the Week: DH being able to feel the baby moving around

Movement: YES! I feel the baby move sporadically. I can go for days without feeling it move but when I do it's so relieving.

Food Cravings: Plain bagel with cream cheese

Gender: We should know in less than 1 week & I can't wait!

What I Miss: Regular Pepsi & Motrin, these hormone headaches are brutal.

How's Daddy: He's doing fantastic. I was craving cereal for dinner so he went out & bought me some milk

Emotions: I am so anxious for our big gender reveal ultrasound! I can't wait to see our little jelly bean's heartbeat & hopefully whether it's a boy or a girl.

15 weeks



How Far Along: 15 weeks & 4 days

Weight: -1 pound as of my Dr. appointment yesterday

Maternity Clothes: I have been wearing some maternity shirts because my belly is very high up & I can still fit in my regular jeans =)

Stretch Marks: Same old stretch marks I've had since I was a teenager (damn genetics)

Sleep: I have been falling asleep faster than I ever have before but when I wake up to pee in the morning I have trouble falling back to sleep. This morning I woke up at 7 on my day off, couldn't go back to sleep so I went grocery shopping

Best Moment of the Week: Hearing my little jelly beans heart beating away at my doctor's appointment

Movement: I can't tell if I'm feeling the baby move or not, I have no clue what movement is supposed to feel like. My doctor said I should be feeling movement soon because my baby is active & I am small

Food Cravings: Plain bagel with cream cheese

Gender: We should know in 4 weeks & I can't wait to start buying all the fun gender specific stuff!

What I Miss: Regular Pepsi & Motrin, these hormone headaches are brutal.

How's Daddy: He is still very excited & helps me around the house.

Emotions: Right now I am feeling great! I am so excited & looking forward to our next ultrasound. I can't wait to feel my little one wiggling around inside me.
