Week 18

What Fruit are you? Sweet Potato

Due date:  9.11.14

How far along:  18 Weeks!

Next appointment:  in two weeks for our anatomy ultrasound!

Gender:  It's a boy!

Exercise: A few walks, mostly around Target. 

Stretch marks: A few, very little so far.

Swelling: None

Maternity clothes:  All she's got right now...

Belly button:  In. 

Sleep: A little bit better each time I would say...

Food cravings:  Cereal, cant get enough of it.

Symptoms:  Having to pee all the time, seems like the baby likes to perch on her bladder...

Movement:  Tiff says she feels him but more of the weight shifting rather than kicks... she should start to feel him anytime now.

What I She misses:  being able to eat anything she wants w/out feeling sick afterward. She's learning that eating greasy food is bad idea.

What I She's loving:  Zofram

What I She's looking forward to:  Well now that we know its a boy, it'll be nice to go to the ultrasound and concentrate on what matters, baby's health.

Best moment this week: Honestly, it was knowing we were having a girl to realizing it was a boy and almost having to completely shift our mind to fit the idea of a boy in our lives rather than a little girl. We're happy with any baby boy or girl, but we're excited to see what this little jelly bean brings to our life!

News: Milestones:  Words of wisdom: It's starting to feel real that in 4 months it will no longer just be the two of us and three crazy dogs. We'll have a baby in our lives and he's going to keep us busy. The occasional outings where it's just us will no longer be as easy and we'll have to plan a little better. 

We are pretty excited!
