18 Weeks!!


How far along? 18 weeks (Week 17 went by too fast! And it's hard to keep up with this!)

Maternity clothes? Pants are snug, I hate jeans and even loose shirts are getting tight. May be time to go shopping. 

Sleep: No position is comfortable! I stole one of Vince's pillows last night and that seemed to help. I'm just so tired all the time but so restless at the same time.

Best moment this week: So many great moments! I got to go to Manhattan with a group of students last week. I miss that place so much but I got in some Salsarita's and Call Hall ice cream so life was good! On Saturday, I helped Ali & Robert celebrate their wedding. My first wedding as a preggo photographer, LOL! I had a blast! Today, I finally told my students!! They were all so excited. I finally feel like the secret is officially out. Hmm....what else? We've been blessed these past few weeks it's hard to pin point one "best" moment. 
  
Miss Anything? Nothing specific. I caught a whiff of those Bud Light Straw-Ber-Rita's and it made me really want one but I'll survive. 

Movement: Not 100% sure but I'm certainly feeling lots of different sensations in my tummy so I think Baby N is moving around in there. He/she does a lot of moving at night time though!!

Food cravings: Nothing specific this week. I saw someone with a Bomb Pop and I was then obsessed with having one! I don't feel like I have cravings, I just get a food thought in my head and can't stop thinking about it until I have one.
 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really...bad smells and too hot showers.

 

Gender: We don't know for sure but I've got a feeling it's a boy...we'll see! A girl would be awesome too! 

Labor Signs: Nope, thank goodness! 

Symptoms: I don't wanna jinx myself but I think *some* symptoms are slowly going away! But heartburn, ugh heartburn. I've never had heartburn before and I could've gone without ever experiencing it. According to my students, I've been "meaner/moodier/sassier" lately so I guess that would be a symptom, huh?!

Belly Button in or out? In


Wedding rings on or off? On, with warmer weather they're snug, but on! 


Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy & SUPER EXCITED. Of course, I have my moody days :) I'm noticing I'm a little moodier at school these days. Could it be pregnancy or end of the year frustration? The students even think I'm "sassier" these days. 

Looking forward to: Our appointment on Friday! At least we can hear the heartbeat. Then we'll get to schedule the anatomical sono!!! Can't wait to find out what we're having! I also look forward to actually looking pregnant and not just fat (feeling more pregnant by the day), getting a nursery set up....so many things to look forward to! A gender reveal party and getting Daddy on board to some of my crazy ideas for the reveal! :)

Daddy Moment: Since Saturday was my first wedding as a preggo, he was constantly checking in so I don't stress "his" baby. It was so sweet. He's still super obsessed with my belly and it's so sweet! He's gonna be a fantastic daddy! I can hardly wait!
