How far along? 18 weeks.
Total weight gain/loss: Looks like I'm back up to pre-pregnancy weight. (This is the point where I reached my pre-pregnancy weight with Elle, too.)
Maternity clothes? Broke out one maternity shirt this week because I've had to resort to the rubber band trick with some of my jeans in the last week or so and need some longer tops ... I think I have 2-3 pair of pre-pregnancy jeans that still fit OK, but I'm also mixing in some demi-band maternity jeans for comfort.
Best moment this week: Finding out the gender and seeing Baby Bean at the ultrasound.
Symptoms: Sooooooo tired. Some nausea/heartburn. Headaches. Sciatic pain.
Movement: Lots of movements from Baby. None from me (oopsie!). And I felt some kicks from the outside! This baby is definitely getting stronger.
Food cravings: Ranch dressing. Ham and cheese sandwiches. Sweets, sweets, sweets.
Aversions: Most things leave me with a terrible aftertaste, so I'm not thrilled about most things that I eat.
Gender? IT'S A BOY! (More on our ultrasound to come in separate posts.)
Sleep: I feel tired all the time, so I'm guessing I'm not getting enough, good sleep.
What I miss: My family and friends.
What I am looking forward to: Our gender reveal party :)
Weekly Wisdom: Holy emotions, Batman.
Milestones: Feeling Baby from the outside. Seeing Baby at the ultrasound and finding out that it is a boy!
