Yeah I am a liar liar pants on fire. I totally forgot to publish this during my 17th week and I am 18 weeks today. Whoops.
How far along: 17 weeks
Total weight gain: 7 pounds.
Maternity clothes: For sure. Except my jeans don't fit right and dig into my stomach, but I am so cheap I hate to buy new pairs. I only wear them on weekends since I wear scrubs to work and yoga pants around the house. Ugh.
Stretch marks: Not any new ones that I didn't have from Kai.
Sleep: Sure when I drug myself. I am still getting up at least twice a night to pee. Ahh the joys of pregnancy.
Best moment of this week: Going to the pumpkin patch with Destructo and my hubby finally coming home. I hate when he is out of town traveling.
Miss anything: My back not hurting and Advil. I really really miss Advil. Yeah still the same. I caught myself staring longingly at the bottle last night. My midwife referred me for physical therapy for my back and hopefully this and the chiro I am seeing will help me to not be in so much pain all the time.
Movement: Some. Still very light and I can go all day without feeling him. Occasionally if I bend over and squish him he gives a good hard jab.
Food cravings: None this week.
Have you started to show yet: Yes and I am carrying this boy slightly different than I did Kai.
Gender: Bouncing baby boy.
Labor signs: No
Belly button in or out: In but getting more and more shallow.
Wedding rings on or off: On you know the two times a week I remember to put them on.
Happy or moody most of the time: A bit moody this week. My mind just keeps racing about all the things I need/want to get done before this baby comes and it stresses me out.
Looking forward to: My friend from Italy coming in for a visit.
