22 weeks to go and counting!

I am 18 weeks pregnant today, just 22 more to go!!
This pregnancy is dragging on and on, but I think it is because we do not know the sex yet. UH! We should be finding out in four days but I had to reschedule the ultrasound because of work. SO, in 8 more days we will have the fetal anatomy scan and hopefully find out if we are having a boy or a girl. I always say I am having girl vibe but all I really want is a healthy baby, boy or girl!! I definitely felt the baby move this week, and possibly last. It felt like a little tapping going on that lasted about 10 seconds. Obviously nothing could be felt from the outside but I think that was baby!

Size of baby: Mango
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +7
Maternity Clothes: Regular shirts mixed with maternity ones, totally in maternity pants!
Gender: I think girl and so does Dan, lots of family and friends think boy!
Movement: I feel some faint drumming going on in there! Def. feel little taps!
Sleep: WEIRD. I still get up once a night but I have weird dreams sometimes. Other times I don't. AND still once in a while I will have a day where I feel the same exhaustion as the first trimester. TERRIBLE! 
What I miss: Wine, sushi, raw oysters, cheese
Cravings: Cookies n creme ice cream (which Dan was nice enough to buy for me yesterday) and red meat for some reason. I always hated red meat and did not have it very often, now I can go without chicken.
Symptoms: Weird dreams, some cravings, and a baby bump.

  1. I somehow forgot to add the insane headaches and migraines to the symptoms area. Probably since I don't have one right now, amazingly.
