Eighteen Weeks

Tuesday, August 27, 2013

Okay, so technically I'm at 19 weeks exactly today, but here's a photo of my bump from last week and my update - expect to see 19 weeks sometime before 20 weeks... hopefully. The picture was taken on the day of our ultrasound to determine if McBaby is a boy or a girl, hence the pink/blue outfit ;)

How far along? Eighteen weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Still down about 17lbs. At this point, I'm not complaining.
Maternity clothes? I only have 2 maternity shirts and the rest of my longer shirts still fit wonderfully. Pants are still going strong, thanks to the weight I've lost.
Sleep: I'm starting to get tired in the afternoons again, around 3:00pm. I may need to begin instituting a nappy time.
Best moment this week: Finding out that McBaby is a GIRL!
Worst Symptom this Week: None actually, this week I'm flying so high I don't feel a thing :)
Buy anything for the nursery? Holy crap yes, Grammie and Mom hooked McBaby up with cute girly outfits and Aunt Ro chipped in to help buy her some bedding. Nursery colors are official: Lavender and Gray.
Miss Anything? I kind of missed being able to drink champagne with Mom and Grammie and Mike this weekend. Sigh, sparkling apple cider for me this year!

Movement: Nada. Nothing. Zilch. Apparently I have an anterior (front) placenta, so that's why I haven't felt her yet.
Baby is the size of a: Mango! The ultrasound tech said she weighs about 10 ounces - still so tiny!
Food cravings: Mozzarella sticks, please. Make that a double order.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I saw a dead armadillo on the road and almost threw up. The insides looked like raw ground beef. (runs away from computer to throw up for reals)
Have you started to show yet: Yep, and I feel like I'm getting bigger by the day!
Gender prediction: Well, we all know that I was totally wrong about thinking it was a boy. Poor Mike. He's still recovering.
Bump Nickname: I've started calling her Little Girl, but Mike has successfully transitioned from "he" to "it". We'll get to "her" eventually ;)
Belly Button in or out? Still in, no signs of change
Happy or Moody most of the time: So. Freaking. Happy.
Looking forward to: My dad's visit this week!

And one last photo (if you haven't already seen it on Facebook) of our sweet little girl
