18 Weeks

Happy Sunday! We’ve had a pretty good weekend – got some housework and errands done, had a little ice cream picnic with friends on Saturday, had a breakfast date with out-of-town friends this morning, and a little family birthday party this afternoon. Summers never fail to be nonstop busy!

Here’s my 18 week bumpdate!

How far along? 18 weeks, 5 days
Total weight gain: 4.5 pounds
Maternity clothes? A mix of maternity + my regular clothes
Stretch marks? Ugh, I don’t think so. I feel like I will be prone to them, but am super hoping I am wrong!
Sleep: Feeling like I should start training myself to not sleep on my back which hasn’t been fun so far… If I’m on my back I sleep great! If I’m not on my back, I’m awake throughout the night to readjust. Sigh.
Best moments this week: Lots of good moments this week! Friend time was probably my favorite of all though :)
Miss Anything: I haven’t even fully transitioned to not sleeping on my back yet, but I already miss it.
Movement: Sometimes I feel little moments that I think could be her, but nothing definitive yet.
Food cravings: Strawberries!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Have you started to show yet: Oh yes. My mother reminds me of just how much I’m showing every time she sees me ;)
Gender: Little baby girl
Labor Signs: No.
Belly Button in or out? In but I feel like it looks different already!
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or Moody most of the time: It’s basically summer and I’m past the nausea. How can I not be happy??
Weekly Wisdom: Poshmark has lots of sellers who sell baby clothes! I haven’t bought anything yet, but I’ve totally eyed lots of cute things.
Looking Forward to: Hopefully participating in some sibling bonding next weekend :)

XO,
Kayla
