18 Weeks!

 

 

How far along: 17 Weeks 5 Days - 18 weeks tomorrow!

 

Total weight gain: At my OB appointment on Wednesday, I weighed EXACTLY the same, to the ounce, that I did over a month ago at my previous appointment. Which means I still haven't gained anything!

How big is baby?: The size a sweet potato - about 6 inches long and 7oz.

Maternity clothes?: I have a few things, but I don't need to wear them yet. I'm sure it will happen soon enough, I'm bound to "pop" one of these days.

Stretch marks?: None.

Symptoms? I got a few nasty headaches.

Sleep?:  The complete opposites of last week it seems. I wake up constantly. But on the plus side I feel like my energy level is on the rise.

Best moment this week?: Hearing Baby N's heartbeat again.

Worst moment this week?: Cramming 5 days of work into 4 days. I love the short week, but geez.
 
Movement?: I told my OB what I thought I was feeling, and she said that it's likely movement, I just don't realize it yet. I feel the occasional poke.
 
Food cravings?: Fruit! Strawberries, watermelon. I can't get enough it seems.

Labor signs?: Nope.

Belly button in or out?: Still way in.

What I miss:  E & B subs

What I'm nervous about: Not really nervous, but overwhelmed about registering. I have no clue what I'm doing!

What I am looking forward to: Kitchen cabinets!

Milestone: We scheduled our "big ultrasound"!!! If baby cooperates, we'll find out on July 27th if we're expecting a boy or a girl. This will also be my first ultrasound, so I'm pretty pumped about seeing the baby.
