Pregnancy Update: 18 Weeks

How far along: 18 weeks

Baby Size: baby is as big as an artichoke!

Cravings: still mac and cheese.  While we were moving my MIL brought over a Stouffer’s mac and cheese, and it was so tasty!  I could also really go for a DQ Blizzard right now.  There is an ice cream place down the road from the house that I may just need to check out.

Symptoms: still so tired.

Sleep: since moving to the new house, my sleep hasn’t been so great.  A few nights ago I was up from like 1:00am-3:30am.  I was just wide awake thinking of everything that needs to be done in the house.  I’m hoping that doesn’t happen too often.

Movement: still not a whole lot.  I’m really hoping I don’t have an anterior placenta like my last two pregnancies.  It made feeling anything so hard.

Clothing:  I’ve busted out the maternity clothes from my SIL.  I can still fit into stretch dresses and skirts that are non-maternity, but the shirts are starting to get a little snug.

Miss Anything: wine.  It was my MIL’s birthday and we took her out to eat.  She and Matt shared a bottle of Late Harvest Riesling (one of my favorites) and declared it really good wine.  

Favorite thing from the Week: ummm… I guess actually living in the new house has been nice.  There is just lots to do, and lots of boxes everywhere, so it’s kind of stressful.

Big Sisters: they have remember that they like to fight.  We’ve been going on walks in the neighborhood, and they seem to like that.

Getting Excited About: finding out if we are having a boy or a girl!  We’ll find out the first week in August, and I can’t wait!
