How Far Along? Week 18
Size of Baby? Depending
on what site you look at, Baby Benni is the size of a sweet potato, a pickle or
a baked potato. Measurements are
approximately 5.6 inches long and 6.7 ounces (and growing!)
Maternity Clothes? A mix
of both.
Weight Gain? I think around 10 lbs, thank you very
much Memorial Day Weekend crescent rolls, brownies and cookies.
Gender? No idea!
Sleep? Sleeping really
soundly when I am asleep…unfortunately sometimes I wake up b/c of
heartburn. Boo.
Food Cravings? I
finally had some jumbo popcorn chicken from Sonic so my 1st
trimester “craving” was finally satisfied.
It was pretty fantastic.
What I Miss? Being skinny, lifting weights, doing push-ups
w/out my belly touching the ground first…
Symptoms? Heartburn, huge boobs, more lower back pain,
having a belly.
Belly Button? Shallow innie.
Best Moment of the
Week? We’re gonna do a best/worst. The worst: so I got into a wreck this
afternoon (boooooo!). My car is in the
shop, the front end was damaged pretty badly.
I hit someone (we’re gonna blame this on pregnancy brain maybe?) because
I did not look both ways before crossing the street. I’m ok, the other gal is ok, and baby Benni
is ok! The best: I went and had a sono
to get things checked out after the wreck (and for peace of mind) and saw the
little one’s face and hands and feet and heart and everything. I told the sono tech I didn’t want to know
the sex of the baby since I want to share that with Dude next week at our
scheduled appointment, but I’ll bet I could have found that out too if I had wanted. I saw it’s little feet and crossed and curled
up and its hand covering its face like, “Oh, geez, Mom, did you really just get
into a wreck, you nerd?” That was pretty
cool for sure. J
