18 WEEKS

 

How far along: 18 weeks now and finally feeling bigger! It's hard to tell when I look at it every day, but my co-workers have been telling me so. 
Gender: I'm going to love either gender! We find out soon!
Weight gain: Little here and there.
Maternity clothes: Need to invest in some simple tops that I can wear now and post-pregnancy! 
Stretch marks: As my belly grows, so does my skin. I'm getting little ones close to my belly button.
Best moment of the week: Making plans with Jeff about baby (things to buy, when to buy them, etc). Also, I turned the toilet seat blue. Lol. My co-workers were talking about how this has happened to them and it finally happened. It's something to do with your hormonal changes when you sweat as your sitting on the toilet ... idk. Crazy stuff, but it actually does happen! Lol. 
Worst moment of the week: My forearm is getting sore - like carpel tunnel sore. Not too concerned though!
Miss anything: Sleeping any way I want to. When you're past a certain week, you're encouraged to sleep on your left side and it is killlling me. Haha.
Movement: I swear I'm feeling little ones here and there but they aren't as apparent yet!
Cravings: Nothing crazy. I'm so tired of food these days. Lol. I'm also feeling everything I eat, too. I've been eating a ton of spicy chips and have felt every bit of it this week. 
Looking forward to: 20 week appointment which is coming so soon. I'm so so thankful to be reaching the half-way mark; a place that felt so far away. Even today, it feels like it's still not real, but it is and I praise the Lord for it!
