18 week update

Toal weight gain: according to my doctor's scale it's still 3 but I think I've really gained five.

Maternity clothes: still don't need em!

Stretch marks: none yet, and now that I'm back in humid Houston I'm hoping it'll stay that way

Sleep: my belly is starting to get in the way of sleeping on my stomach :-(

Best moment of the week: hmmm it hasn't been the best week...from burying my dad to getting bronchitis... I guess I'd say getting back home

Miss anything: sleeping on my back! You aren't supposed to because it restricts blood flow to the baby, but man i crave laying on my back.

Movement: yep! It feels like a heartbeat in my stomach, except it isn't rhythmic or in the same place twice.

Food cravings: well I just read a recipe for chicken enchiladas so now I'm craving those

Anything make you queasy: nope

Symptoms: heartburn, heartburn, heartburn! I never had it before I got pregnant and now my esophagus must have a hole singed in it.

Belly button: man it is close to sticking out. I had a pretty out-y belly button to begin with, so I'm sure it won't be long now

Happy or moody: happy

Looking forward to: getting established with the midwife practice here and touring the birth center.
