18 weeks

I had the stomach bug last week so I didn't do a 17 week update! Pictures will come!
 
How Far along? 18 weeks

Size of the Baby? a sweet potato!

Maternity Clothes? Yes :)

 
Gender? little BOY!

Movement? Yes! I am sure now that it is him moving. Last night I was laying in bed and would press my stomach and then would see him move back. Amazing!
 
Sleep? Good! He has moved up off of my bladder so less bathroom breaks :)

Cravings? Still chocolate milk!!

Symptoms? I feel pretty good, besides the fact that I can feel my stomach stretching. Very strange

What I miss? well I have been missing Michelob Ultra but I have discovered that Odouls is really not a bad substitute for now!

Milestones? feeling him move! its sooo crazy!!

  
Weight Gain? 6 lbs

What I’m excited about? Our next appt Dec 27th!!!


Baby Center Update for Week 18:


Head to rump, your baby is about 6 inches long and he weighs almost 7 ounces. He's busy flexing his arms and legs — movements that you'll start noticing more and more in the weeks ahead. His blood vessels are visible through his thin skin, and his ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from his head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around his nerves, a process that will continue for a year after he's born. If you're having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If you're having a boy, his genitals are noticeable now, but he may hide them from you during an ultrasound.
