18 week update

How far along? 18 weeks


Total weight gain: 18 lbs (that is about 10 too many)

Maternity clothes? Yep, I have been wearing maternity tops and skirts since day 1

Stretch marks? none yet

Sleep: I wake up a lot more and have to reposition, but it isnt that bad.

Best moment this week: Going to the doctors and hearing the heartbeat.

Miss Anything? Wearing bathing suits and laying by the pool all day haha.

Movement: I think I might have felt something a few times but I’m not really sure.

Food cravings: garlic bread, pasta, anything with cheese

Anything making you queasy or sick: smells mostly, especially ground beef cooking

Gender: still unknown (two more weeks)

Labor Signs: none luckily

Symptoms: Major weight gain, terrible complexion, hurting hips, lack of energy

Belly Button in or out? in, and it better stay that way

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: about half and half.

Looking forward to: my ultra sound appointment on the 14th of May!!!!



It seems like my belly really isnt getting that much bigger, but my face and my arms are haha.  Hopefully soon you will be able to tell that I am actually pregnant and not just gaining weight from getting married.
