18 weeks



How Far Along:  18 weeks (TODAY!)
Size of baby: 5.5 inches long - crown to rump, and weighs 7 ounces. 
Gender:  BOY!
Maternity Clothes:  fitting into regular stuff, not for much longer though. I feel like all I wear is workout clothes or pj's unless I actually have to get ready for something I rarely dress up these days.
Weight gain: 0 lbs...I even weighed myself this morning to double check and
 it was still the exact same number it was 2 weeks ago. 
Belly Button:  In
Movement: Baby boy has lots of little kicks and jabs in my belly, especially at night.
Sleep:  It was great last night, my sleep was so deep that I don't even remember my dreams!
Symptoms: Lower back pain has set in and I really don't want it to stay. 
I used a heating pad for a little bit today and I think it helped some.
Cravings:  Chocolate milk! 
Best moment this week: Feeling more and more kicks, it's amazing how comforting that feeling is!
