Pregnancy Ticker

18 & 19 Weeks

I had a post written and saved for 18 weeks but was waiting to publish it until I could post the picture along with it.  Well...somehow I just lost the entire post!  So...here's a recap as best I can recall from 18 weeks along with 19!

Biggest symptom I'd been dealing with is major fatigue.  I just felt absolutely exhausted by the afternoon.  I feel like with Adie I was just textbook- first trimester ended and fatigue and nausea were gone.  This one is soooo much different.  At a play date I was talking with another mom who suggested that my iron levels could possibly be low.  Interesting point considering that when I was pregnant with Adie I had to take a supplement.  So maybe...will have to ask at my appointment.

Speaking of appointment...we get to find out this week what we're having!!  I can't wait to know - it makes it all feel so much more real!  We've got so many home projects coming up so that we can get ready for doing the nursery and get ready for baby - I just can't wait to get going!!  Adie is still so convinced it's a sister...sibling intuition??

Belly is definitely growing - it's nice finally feeling like I look pregnant.  I don't feel like I'm in that awkward in between anymore and I've been in all maternity clothes for the past....3 weeks now probably?  I've had a couple moments of wondering if I've felt kicks.  Then in week 19 I've been gaining some confidence that it's definitely what it is.  I remember from with Adie - feeling the kicks and movement - by far the coolest thing about being pregnant!
