18 Weeks

WOW! Like I said yesterday, the whole pregnancy experience seems to be flying by.

Here's my noticeable symptoms now at week 18:
  • I'm definitely getting thicker in the middle, and to be perfectly honest - I do NOT like the way I look naked in a mirror. I do not really look pregnant, I just look (and feel) chubby. In clothes, however, I look like I'm carrying a bump. But to the untrained, college coed, eye... I look fat.
  • The urgency to pee is more and more frequent and then when I finally go pee - it's like less than half of what I would be expecting. I think we can blame the baby on this one. Y U no leave bladder alone?!
  • I'm feeling little movements!!! This is by far the coolest thing. Every once in a while, baby just starts going to town stretching and wiggling and I am damn near positive that's what it is! Of course now that I say this I haven't felt anything in quite some time and now of course I'm excited to go home and doppler the heartbeat to relieve my PgAL mind.
 What I'm doing wrong:
  • I'm sleeping on my back or my stomach still, although stomach sleeping is becoming less comfortable.
Yeah - that's about it for this week! But I'll leave you with a Hump Day Bump Day pic!

  2. I think we all feel "chubby" but I mean it when I say you don't look chubby at all! LOVE the bump!

    1. I think MAYBE I worked it so that the angle was more flattering :) But thank you!

You is kind. You is smart. And you is important.
