18 Weeks

Size of Baby: Still the size of a turnip. Baby J is about 5 1/2 inches long, the length of a bell pepper, and 7 ounces at this point.

Maternity Clothes: Still wearing regular clothes. Need to look into  getting some stretchy jeans.

Gender: Still not yet. Have a few more weeks before we find out.

Movement: I thought I felt something last week, but I still am not sure I am feeling anything. 


Sleep: Getting lots of naps. Still resting.

What I Miss: Some of my independence of doing things around the house. I keep being told to enjoy it, but it is hard when you are trying to get something done.

Cravings: Sweets

Symptoms: Hormones. Hormones. Hormones.

Moment of the Week: When someone at work was trying to talk around  me to see if I had just been eating to many donuts or if I was pregnant.

You look great! I'm glad you're still feeling pretty good (aside from those pesky hormones).

I only ended purchasing a handful of maternity items. I'd planned to but some pants but ended up living in dresses and sandals (gotta love the GA heat).

Sounds like you have a great pregnancy with the less purchases. I luckily kept some of my pants from my heavier days to wear when I got pregnant, but some of them just look sloppy. Thanks for the compliment, I needed it.

I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I am not sure when the longest sleep was, but I was really sleepy a few weeks ago when I came home from work and went to bed at 6:00 pm and then woke up at
