Week 18: Sweet Potato

How big is baby: Baby is the size of a sweet potato this week (5.6 in and 6.7 oz).  Baby T is growing rapidly which is why I am absolutely starving suddenly.      

Weight gain/loss:  Haven't checked.  

Stretch marks: No.

Sleep:  Hip pain but not to the point where I can't sleep.

Diet/Cravings/Aversions:  Fruit.  Pizza.  I wonder if these two will ever go away?  Aaron told his friend this weekend that I don't really have cravings.  I just always know what I DON'T want :)  At least I'm honest.

Exercise:  Lots of walking in Cali.  And I am forever spoiled because we had the most amazing views.

Gender: We'll find out in October!

Movement: A little more here and there.  I usually only notice at random points throughout the day when I'm really still.  Today at work especially :)

The belly:  It seems bigger compared to last week's picture.   

What I'm spazzing about:  Some spotting again.  Nothing more than the usual though so I'm trying to just ignore it.  It's gone for now.  I really think this is just going to be the norm for me.  

What I'm loving:  Being 18 weeks.  That's 2 weeks from the halfway mark!

Symptoms:  Round ligament pain.  Gagging.  Sore hips at night.  Some spotting.

What I'm looking forward to:  Our BIG ultra sound in one week!!!  I am so excited :)  The cleaning starts this weekend of the two rooms.  And we are planning to paint next weekend.  Non baby related, we are going on vacation in less than three weeks!  We haven't decided exactly where, but we decided to keep it Pure Michigan since Michigan in the summer is amazing :)      

Best moment of the week:  Spending an amazing weekend with my BFF, her husband, and their furbaby Wilma :)  I miss them already!
