Weeks: 18 weeks 2 days (I am having an issue getting these done exactly on the week marker, which is Tuesday.... On Tuesdays I have clinicals from 7 am to 7 pm, so needless to say, I am exhausted when I get done.)
Weight gain/loss: All I am going to say is that there was a big number mentioned last week when I went to the doctor's office, and this week I weigh less than that. Whew!
Cravings: Halloween candy. I think it is because I already bought it, so I know that it is there, hiding in the closet (yes, I "hid" it from myself... out of sight, out of mind, right???)
Aversions: Nothing too bad... I still am waiting to like onions again.
Sleep: Brett is sleeping well. He snores every night. Me? Hmm... Not so much. I guess it is just getting me prepared for all the restless nights with a little baby.
Breakdowns: None this week! Yay!
Significant Events: I bought maternity scrubs this week. Which is weird, because for the most part, people at work don't know that I am pregnant... But I can tell that mine are getting to tight, and the pants don't want to stay up. Funny story, the DO NOT make maternity scrubs in purple, which is what I need for Butler clinicals... So, we will see what I do there.
What I Miss: I saw a TV show last night where people were drinking champagne, and I thought, "Yum, that looks good". And then I realized that was a no-no, and I snapped out of it. Maybe some Welch's sparkling grape juice is in my future.
What I’m Looking Forward To: Okay, there are two things (which might be mentioned every week until they happen): 1) I can't wait for Brett to feel the baby move from the outside. I am feeling it a lot from the inside now, so I don't think it will be too much longer! 2) We have our ultrasound in less then 3 weeks! I can't wait to see the baby.
What I’ve Learned: Maternity jeans are the most comfortable jeans ever! I never want to wear jeans with a button and zipper again...
Belly Pic: Here it is from this morning... I had just gotten out of the shower, hence the hair.
