Week 17 was another good week! I can't help, but laugh at myself for thinking I was showing back around 12 weeks. It was most definitely not baby! It was being bloated, and gaining weight from sleeping all the time. I still wouldn't say there's a big bump, but my body is more baby now, than it is being bloated. The transition to having a baby belly is a fast one these days! The stretching pains in my lower belly are fairly constant now, and I have to roll on my side to get out of bed. None of this bothers me too much. Still enjoying this adventure :-) It was a crazy busy weekend, and Monday so there's no pic in front of the board for this post. This pic is from Saturday at a haunted house, with the super cute baby skeleton shirt my little sister sent :-)
How far along? 18 weeks, and 2 days today
Total weight gain/loss? Won't be doing this part until the next Dr. Appt. I don't trust my scale at home, so I'm only going off of the "official" one.
Maternity clothes? Down to very few of my regular pants working with the hair tie trick. After the 4th pair that fit last week, and don't fit this week, I threw in the towel and wore a skirt to work today. I'll be making a trip to buy maternity pants this weekend for sure.
Stretch marks? None, and I'm being adiment about applying lotion like a mad woman now that everything seems to be expanding quicker than before!
Sleep? As long as Clay, and I aren't bickering over the preggo pillow, I sleep great! Ha! He doesn't like that it takes up so much room, and "I don't snuggle with him anymore" He's a good sport though cause that pillow makes such a difference for mama's back! :-)
Best moment this week? Feeling & seeing my belly really starting to change.
Miss Anything? Steak, I like mine cooked Rare, which is a big no-no during pregnancy :-(
Movement? No movement yet. If so, it's being over passed by the pains my ligaments stretching is causing. Ha!
Food/Drink cravings? Orange Juice, and no food specifically, but i've been a bottomless pit lately! I'm sticking with healthy snacks for the most part, but am hungry ALL the time!
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope!
Have you started to show yet? Yes, and I won't be able to hide it for long.
Gender? I think girl, Clay thinks boy. We'll find out next week!!!! :-)
Labor Signs? Nope
Belly Button in or out? In
Happy or Moody most of the time? Happy :-)
Looking forward to? Finding out the gender, and getting settled in our new place so I can start nesting!
