18 weeks

I'm 18 weeks! I was so busy this weekend with the party and also being super sick that taking a belly shot totally slipped my mind! So here we are a few days late. (we took this picture at night, after a long day, so I'm looking a bit rough!)

Caleb's bones are starting to harden and he can also now hear my heart beating and my stomach growling. That explains why he always kicks when I'm hungry with a growling stomach haha.


Size of baby: sweet potato (5.6 inches and 6.7 ounces)

Total weight gain: I was WAY off! A whopping 10 pounds!

Maternity Clothes: Yep! At least for the pants. The belly band was more annoying than helpful, I will still wear it if I MUST wear my pre-pregnancy pants, but maternity jeans are way more comfortable! I can still wear pre-pregnancy tops, but I am enjoying the maternity ones for a new look :)

Boy or Girl? It's a BOY!!!!!! Caleb James

Movement: Pretty much all the time now! I love it, and I loved that he was dancing around during worship time in church. He knew his daddy was up there on stage rocking the violin :)

Sleep: This week has been terrible. I was extremely sick with a cold (sounds like an understatement to me, it felt more like the flu), so it was really hard to sleep when I couldn't breath and was coughing non-stop.

Anything you miss? Not really

Cravings? Not really having any lately. Still having a hard time finding something that sounds good.

Symptoms: can't think of any. This week was like every pregnancy symptom hit me at once because I was sick and had possible food poisoning. But that's not pregnancy related lol

Any fears? Hoping Caleb is a healthy little baby boy. I worry too much!

Best moment of the week: Finally knowing HE is a HE!!! It was so exciting to buy cute little boy outfits, he is going to be such a cute little guy!
