How far along: 18 weeks
Gender: We don't know yet, but hopefully we'll know by the end of the month. I have a feeling it's a boy, but we'll see.
Weight gain: Only about two pounds so far, which is right where I was last pregnancy at this time.
Maternity clothes: Most days I can get away with wearing my normal pants with a hair tie to keep the button closed, but by the end of the day I always have to change into comfy pants (sweats/leggings).
Stretch marks: Nope.
Belly button in/out: In, and I'm predicting it stays that way. It never popped last time.
Sleep: Well, I only sleep as long as Lucy does. She's been sleeping from 8 p.m. to 5/6p.m., but I'm getting up two or three times to pee, sooooo...
Miss anything: I really miss beer, especially since 'tis the season for parties. I also miss having energy.
Movement: I get little nudges here and there, but I have to be in a really quiet environment and usually laying down.
Cravings: I've pretty much been craving anything that's bad for me. With Lucy, it was fruit. This time, it's donuts, burgers, pizza, etc. Luckily we have a pretty tight grocery budget, which prevents me from running out and going through drive-throughs.
Queasy or sick: Thankfully, that ship has sailed!!! I was feeling really gross for awhile, especially right in the beginning. We took a trip to Tahoe about two weeks after I found out, but since we weren't telling anyone I had to have a pretty good poker face. The one thing that is still bothering me is leftover food in the fridge and Lucy's poo diapers. It's a good thing we still have old hospital masks!
Looking forward to: Feeling more movement. I still worry a ton about the well-being of our baby, so I remember that last time after I could feel kicks I calmed down a bunch.
