18 Weeks




Pregnancy Highlights:
How far along - 18 Weeks
Size of Baby - Sweet Potato (about 5.6 inches & 6.7 ounces)
Development - The baby is yawning, hiccuping, sucking and swallowing.  He or she is rolling, kicking and punching too!  I don't feel it yet, but should really soon!
Weight Gain - I gained 1 pound, so that makes -1 pound.  I'm almost back to my start weight.  I hope this means I won't gain too much later.
Maternity Clothes - I'm wearing my regular clothes and maternity clothes.  I mostly love wearing tights/leggings with tunics.
Sleep -  I'm still sleeping pretty well.  I have been taking naps too since I've been on winter break.
Cravings - I'm still not really craving anything.  I enjoy most foods now, but feel I don't eat quite as much as I used too.
Miss Anything - Not really, especially the litter box!  I love that only Karson can do that job now!
Gender - We find out next week!!!
Symptoms - I'm feeling pretty good, but still tired.  Since I've been off work, I haven't had any sciatic nerve pain.  It must be standing on my feet and constantly bending over to help kids at work that does it.  
Looking forward to - Finding out the gender and feeling the baby move!
