How far along? 18 weeks (The
size of a mango. Appx 6 in and 8 1/2oz.)
Maternity clothes: No but even though I didn't move on the scale this week, this is the week where my size has bothered me the most. I have had quite a few "pudgy"/"bump" comments this past week (which I had no idea how LITTLE I would appreciate those) and my pants are getting tighter. Not really tight enough to move to maternity (I mean I'm a girl, I fluctuate a good amount of the time anyways, I'm used to pants being tighter) but most all of my shirts "hug" my waist and I am super self conscious about it so I may move on to some maternity clothes (the small ones) just to "hide" my stomach a little and I absolutely DREAM of stretchy pants!
Have you told family and friends? Everybody knows now :)
Have you started to show
yet? I am definitely starting to show, even though now I field a 50/50 blend of comments like "You don't look pregnant at all!" and "Finally I see a little pudge!" A lot of it depends on whether I have just eaten or not and how tight my top is.
Sleep: It comes and goes. I think now my brain is affecting it more though than uncomfortableness, nausea or heat waves though.
Best
moment this week:Ellie has started "listening" to her baby cousin and she has this special voice she uses to tell us what she is saying and it is HILARIOUS! It makes me laugh so hard every time! Plus, she told me the other day out of the blue that she was going to be her baby cousin's "bess fwiend." :-)
Miss Anything? Worry
free days. The devil is really playing with my minds and dreams about
the baby's health and I am pretty much ALWAYS fighting the urge to worry
myself sick.
Movement: I think I am feeling her semi-regularly now but I am definitely ready to feel her for sure all the time.
Anything
making you queasy or sick? Nope!
Gender prediction: GIRL. According to the sonogram the Chinese Gender Calender and every single old wives tale was WRONG! (Refer to my earlier posts!)
Labor Signs: No
