18 Weeks


How Far Along: 18 weeks, 2 days
Mini is the size of : A sweet potato (5.5 in, 5 oz.)
Gender: Girl - we have our 20 week ultrasound next week (1 week early!) at 19 weeks and little lady better still be a lady! Otherwise mama has some serious returning to do!
Symptoms: none
Loving: warm weather! Last weekend we were graced with 80 degree weather. David and I went out to the wineries in Livermore. Which was as fun as can be pregnant...
Loathing: allergy season. After getting through the worst of my cold from last week (p.s. thank you for all the well wishes) those pretty blossoming trees are my new nemesis!
Wedding Rings: On
Belly Button: In
Maternity Clothes: Yes and no.
Sleep: okay. Being congested it's hard to fall asleep but getting better daily. I think I am going to buy mini's humidifier off my registry and use it until she arrives.
Movement: Still waiting...
Currently Craving: Peaches, Strawberries & lemonade.
Best Part of the Week: Celebrating my birthday on Thursday! It's my last one as a non mama!
Worst Part of the Week: Having to work on my birthday....boo!
Mood: happy
Missing Most: THIS! And making it for David is EXTRA torture!

Can't Wait:Our big 20 week appointment next Wednesday!

  10. Woah woah woah! You can't eat overeasy eggs while pregnant? I'm screwed. That is just not fair.
    But on another note, you're looking more beautiful and glowy with every week that passes!
