Week 18

This has been my favorite week of pregnancy so far! So many great things happening!

How far along? 18 weeks
Size of baby? Bell Pepper (5.5 inches long, weighs 7 ounces)
Maternity clothes? Not this week
Have you started to show yet? Yes! We went to dinner and a baseball game and I wore a fitted shirt. The hostess at the restaurant said to me "You have the cutest little baby bump!" And it made my day!! I was so shocked that she could tell that I was pregnant and of course Jimbo tried to trick her by saying "She's not pregnant..." but she didn't fall for it :)
Sleep? Great!
Movement? YES!! The day of the baseball game I felt the baby move around a lot! It felt just like they said it would...little flutters or popcorn popping inside my stomach. That really was the best day!
Food cravings? No
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope!!
Symptoms? I've been having a lot of cramps so I know the baby is growing a lot this week. I've been drinking plenty of water, don't worry.
Looking forward to? Our first ultrasound coming up in a couple of weeks and finding out the gender!
Best moment this week? Feeling the baby move for the first time and having the baby bump noticed by a stranger :) We also received a gift from one of my best friends and it is awesome!!! It's a book and it's pretty funny :)
Fun Fact about baby? The baby spends it's time flexing it's arms and legs. The blood vessels are visible through thin skin. If it's a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in their final place.
Gender? We'll know soon!
