till we find out the sex of Baby Holmes! I am READY! I feel like then I can finally start to buy stuff and pick things out like crib, nursery colors, etc. April 13 is the lucky day. Which also happens to be the day GLEE comes back to TV. What a GREAT day.
Baby H is doing well. I am definitely rounder but I have yet to "pop" if you will. I feel as though I will regret this later but I am just ready to LOOK pregnant. 2 weeks will also be 20 weeks- the half way point- but the first half is all so laidback because you don't look pregnant nad honestly, don't feel pregnant all the time. Some days I even forget for awhile that I am pregnant!
I figured I needed to start documenting baby moments in more detail or at all really so I am going to try to update every week now that I am in the 2nd trimester and getting closer to due date.
I saw this on someone else's blog who is pregnant and thought it would be an easy way to gather my thoughts....
How far along: 18 weeks and 2 days
Total Weight Gain: 6lbs. - I am finally starting to gain now which is good.
Maternity Clothes: I bought 2 pair of pants a few weeks ago that I love. Otherwise, I just wear old pants were too big. My belly isn't big enough to wear maternity shirts yet. I know this will change soon and I hate shopping so I better get ready.
Stretch Marks: I don't think I've gained enough weight yet for those but I know they are coming as well....
Best Moment this Week: Knowing that in 2 weeks we will know what we are having (hopefully, there's always the possibility baby won't cooperate and I really should be prepared for that)
Movement: I THINK I might have felt something that COULD have been the baby a couple nights ago but it's too early for me to tell. The thought of feeling something living inside you move both excites and weirds me out all at the same time so I bet that will be interesting when it finally happens.
Food Cravings: I'm not really convinced yet that pregnant women actually "crave" things. I think we are just justifying our want to eat something bad for us or that we know we shouldn't. I ate Caliente 3 times last week. I usually eat there 2 times a month. Is that a craving? I don't know. Check back with me about that one.
Pregnancy Symptoms: I have real bad pain in my left leg at night. Part of it is restless leg syndrome and part of it is the baby pushing on my sciatic nerve. It's is painful and wakes me up at least 3-5 times a night so sleeping is a little bit hard lately. I've also been getting bad heartburn around 10 each night that lasts until I fall asleep. I've never had heartburn in my life... I didn't even know what it was. Dale had to google it. HAH!
Labor Signs: Don't have any yet.... thank god.
Okay, off to work. Update next week for sure!
