Week 19

19 Weeks: 5/9/2012

How far along? 19 weeks
Maternity clothes?  Bought a few more maternity clothing items, but I still mainly just wear my Monday through Friday work pants!  (As in the same pair everyday...)
Sleep: Good, aside from those bathroom breaks.
Best moment this week: It was kinda my first mother's day!  I think it still counts even when little man in still in the womb!  We went over to my cousin's house for brunch.  In the afternoon, I went to Peter Pan (the ballet) with my mom, sister, and Andy's mom.  It was so good!  For dinner, we had my mom and John as well as Andy's parents over for dinner.  All in all, a fabulous day!  Super jam-packed, just how we tend to do every holiday!  Another fun thing this week was starting prenatal yoga with my friend Amy!
Miss anything? Not really.
Movement:  A few more kicks maybe...I hope....
Food cravings: Not really.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  No.
Labor signs: No!
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to:  We have our 20 week ultrasound AND the fetal echocardiogram AND the meeting with the pediatric surgeon this week.  Needless to say, it will be an intense week!  Hopefully with lots of good news!!

Week 18

18 Weeks: 5/2/2012
How far along? 18 weeks
Maternity clothes?  Still rocking the same pants M-F.  Don't NEED maternity tops, but I wear a few here and there.
Sleep: Good--I've had a few nights where I haven't had to get up to go to the bathroom!
Best moment this week: Last weekend, Andy and I went to visit some of his family in Prairie Du Chien, WI.  We went with his parents and it was a fun little road trip!  His aunt and uncle recently bought a house on a bunch of land (35 acres, I believe) and it was so beautiful out there!  I'm totally a city girl, but being out in the middle of nowhere (hope that's not offensive) definitely has it's perks!  It was a nice and relaxing weekend.
Miss anything? Not really.
Movement:  I think a few kicks but I really have to concentrate.
Food cravings: Not really.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Nada!
Gender: Still a boy!  (I think I can delete this one...)
Labor Signs: No!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to:  Baby shower for my friend this weekend! :)  She's having a boy in June.  Still counting down the days until the next ultrasound!
