Bump Day: Week 18

How far along? 18 weeks.
 
Sleep? Trouble getting comfortable now, but still sleeping pretty good.

Maternity Clothes? Yep… not wearing many of my “pre-pregnancy” clothes. 

Stretch Marks? No, still putting cocoa butter on twice daily.

Best Moment this week? Seeing my girls on the big screen (ultrasound).  You can see their rib cages and clearly see parts of their brains... so cool.

Miss Anything? Wedge salads... I love me some blue cheese.

Movement? No, but doc says about 2 more weeks.

Size of the Babies? Three little Pears!

Food Cravings? Strawberries with powdered sugar.  Pure sweetness. 

Morning Sickness? Beginning to feel better each day.

Gender? Three little girls.

Bed Rest? Not strict bed rest, but I am supposed to take it really easy and rest as much as possible.

Limitations? No bending over… Can someone please tie my shoes?

Labor Signs? More contractions for a couple hours last Wednesday that were no fun.  Nothing since then, thankfully.  

Weight Gain? 10 lbs., Brian keeps trying to fatten me up. 

Pregnancy Symptoms? Feeling bloated all the time.

Belly Button In or Out? Still In, but flattening when I’m full.

Wedding Rings On or Off? Still On

Mood? Bummed that today was my last day of work :/  I’m gonna miss my co-workers, patients, and getting out of the house on a regular basis.

Looking Forward To? Tackling organizing my house.  Tomorrow is my first day off from work so, what to do… what to do… 

What Brian is Saying: His post from Facebook, “I'm a plumber, a tile guy, a handy man, a maid, a manager, a husband and most importantly a father. Lots of stuff to be done around the house before my girls arrive.”  He is in pure work mode.
