18 and 19 Weeks!

Here's an update on the past two weeks, since last week was busy with life and wedding things. . .

How far along? 19 weeks

Total weight gain: I don't really know- I might just get rid of this question because I don't really keep track. Based on how clothes fit and how I look, I've gained weight in the belly region (obviously) and boobs. The rest of me is pretty much the same.

Maternity clothes? I was at goodwill last week sometime looking for a dresser or buffet and decided to check out the maternity section, just incase. I'm so glad I did! I found a bunch of maternity t-shirts that were brand new, tags still on! They are so nice- most of my tanks are getting too short, so having some shirts that actually fit my growing belly is great!

Stretch marks? So far, none. .  we'll see if that continues!

Sleep: It's been pretty good lately. I usually have to get up either in the middle night or very early morning to pee, but that's mostly my fault because I drink a lot of water before bed. If I drink less before bed, I don't get up, but then I feel dehydrated in the morning which isn't good either. I also am getting more and more uncomfortable attempting to sleep on my tummy- I pretty much just don't anymore and do a semi-side/semi-tummy thing.

Best moment this week: Pat and Emily's wedding was a good one! Also, having a short school-week this week and Thanksgiving tomorrow is great too!

Miss Anything? Warmer weather :) We have a long way to go before I'll feel that again though, so I'll stay bundled until around the time baby arrives! 
Movement: Almost every time I sit, lay down, or stop moving I can feel the little one moving around- I love it! I can't wait until it's more consistent and stronger. I know that Dan is anxious to be able to feel some movement too. . . it will probably be a little while before that happens though. 

Food cravings: Donuts, cupcakes, custard. Mmmm if someone wants to bring me a scoop of chocolate in a dish from gilles or culvers, I would be just fine with that :)

Anything making you queasy or sick: Bacon cooking and cigarette smoke is still gross to me.

Gender: I'm still not sure! We got a few predictions at the wedding. Hopefully we'll find out at our next dr's appointment!!

Labor Signs: I hope I have no signs anytime before I'm supposed to.  

Belly Button in or out? Innie still.

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Still mostly happy with a fairly regular bout of moodiness (well, crying at random things like puppy videos or commercials with old people falling).

Looking forward to: Thanksgiving food (especially crispy turkey skin, cranberry fluff, stuffing, and cold turkey dipped in salt- a weird thing I do haha). Also, finding out if we're having a boy or a girl. I can't wait!
