18 weeks

I'm not posting a picture today because I didn't get to take one. Now that my belly is growing pretty good, I'll probably start taking weekly pictures next week instead of every other week. So stay tuned for week 19. As for week 18, here are some highlights....

18 Weeks

PREGNANCY HIGHLIGHTS:
How Far Along: 18 weeks
Size of baby: The website I googled said little strawberry is currently the size of a pickle
 Total Weight Gain/Loss: Still at (-1) according to my scale at home
Maternity Clothes: It's that time. Oh my!
Gender: Still not sure. My gut is still saying BOY. But I guess we'll know April 8th for sure. :)
Movement: Still not feeling any movement. Is this normal during a 2nd pregnancy? I'm sure it is... I just always heard you feel the baby sooner in a 2nd pregnancy than the 1st.
What I miss: I'm still missing my energy, clear face, not being sick and sleep. Lately I've been extremely exhausted. Like asleep by 8-8:30 exhausted.
Cravings: No cravings this week. I'm wondering when I'll get to the point where I want to eat everything in sight, like I did when I got to a certain point with Tuff's pregnancy. :)
Symptoms: Exhaustion, nausea, gagging and acne. Although, I'm happy to say the gagging is decreasing. YAY!!!
Best Moment this week: Finally getting to spend some much needed time outside with my beautiful baby boy!!! 
 
 
Hope everyone is enjoying their Tuesday!!!!
