18 Weeks

Again, not a great picture.  I promise it's a white camisole underneath my sweater.  It only shows up in my pictures for some reason.

•How far along are you? 18 weeks - I'm feeling big this week!

•How big is baby?: Head to rump, your baby is about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and he weighs almost 7 ounces.

•Maternity clothes: I have worn a few maternity shirts in the last couple of days, but still all my regular pants (with lots of help from rubberbands and belly bands).

•Gender: Only 2 more weeks until we find out!

•Sleep?: Most days it's not so good. Oh how I miss sleeping on my back!!

•Best moment this week?: Finally coming to an agreement on our boy's name.  Our boys name and girls name have now been decided upon.  Yay!  We'll share once we find out the gender.

•Movement?: Still just random flutters. Waiting anxiously for kicks that can be felt on the outside.

•Food cravings?: No new ones this week.

•Food aversions?: Nothing really.

•What I miss: Sleeping on my back!

•Symptoms: No new ones, just bad allergies, itchy stomach, etc.

Milestone: Only about 150 days to go!

I wasn't consistent on taking belly pics while I was pregnant with Em, but I do have a picture from 18 weeks.  I think I definitely look much larger this time around.  :(  And I should mention too. . when I was preggo with Em, I would stick my belly out for pics.  This time I try to suck it in.  :)
