How far along? 18 weeks 6 days
 

Total weight gain/loss: up from 102 lbs to 110 lbs

Food cravings: Sweets! I really wanted a root beer float today

Maternity clothes? Rockin those leggings!

Stretch Marks? Nope, I've been rubbing cocoa butter on my belly, so lets hope that works

Sleep: Sleeping good, except for midnight bathroom breaks

Miss anything? Mmm beer(in my Homer Simpson voice) and not having to pee two million times a day

Movement: Feeling more off and on throughout the day

Anything making you sick or queasy? Nope

Have you started to show? With strangers asking me when my due date is, I'm going to say yes!

Gender: Baby Holt is a Boy!

Belly Button in or out? In, but it's starting flatten out

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy camper :)
 

 

Best moment this weeks: We bought and decorated our Christmas tree.

Here is Shane picking out the perfect tree, and me enjoying said tree. It makes the house feel so cozy, I love it.

 

 

And of course the absolute best part of my week, seeing our precious little guy, and hearing that he's healthy and all is well.

 

 I think he's definitely going to have Shane's nose, but Shane says otherwise.

 Right foot

 Left foot

Confirmation that he is in fact still a boy!

 

 



Baby Buys: Still haven't really bought anything thing for him, but can't wait to get started on the nursery.

Looking forward to: Christmas is right around the corner, and I'm looking forward to enjoying the holiday with family.

17 weeks...

 Week 17
Finally, your baby's arms, legs, and trunk have caught up to the size of his head. Baby starts plumping up this week, as body fat is deposited under his skin and sweat glands develop. Also worth noting: The placenta is almost as big as your baby. It provides vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and oxygen, along with removing waste and filtering carbon dioxide.

 

Ok, I'll be the first to admit I'm not the best at this blogging thing, but I promise I'll do my best from here on out to keep up with the weekly updates.  



How far along? let's just pretend I'm still 17 weeks lol

Total weight gain/loss: up from 102 lbs to 110 lbs

Food cravings: Cinnamon rolls! They have cinnabon cinnamon rolls at Burger King and I had to have them last week! Sooo yummy

Maternity clothes? I've been wearing leggings a lot, I've got like 5 pairs, and I use my belly band over my unbuttoned jeans :)

Stretch Marks? None, knock on wood

Sleep: I'm still sleeping really well, so well that I haven't even had to get up to go to the bathroom.

Miss anything? Being able to stay awake past 8 p.m. I had to force myself not to fall asleep on the couch while watching the season finale of Sons of Anarchy the other night.

Movement: Feeling sluggish waves of movement like he's doing little somersaults in there, and little kicks.

Anything making you sick or queasy? Nope

Best moment this week: Decorating the house for Christmas, I love Christmas decorations!!

Baby Buys: I'm hesitant to buy things for the baby, I think I'm waiting until after the baby shower(s) unless I find something that I just can't live without!
 

Looking forward to: Next appointment is coming up, I can't wait to see our little guy and how much bigger he is!

I promise to post Week 18 update before Friday(19 weeks)!
