Week #18-Father's Day!

Week # 18-6/21/13
Baby is size of: Sweet Potato!

Weight-158.8- Ugh. I'm trying to stick to a pound a week. I admit. I eat great in the morning and while I'm at work, then at night, I indulge a little. I'm just slightly above where I should be in weight gain. 

Change since last week: +1.6

Weight gain overall: 10.8lbs

Symptoms:  Not much change since last week. Sciatica pain down my left side on and off, peeing twice a night religiously. 

Cravings? As much as I hated eggs, I now crave them. I've had one every day this week. I also love my fruit and turkey burgers. Less carbs. 

Exercise:  I walked with Linsday on the Puetz trail for about 2 hours one night and also weeded the garden for 2 hours one night and 2.5 hours another night.

I think I have popped! It took about 17/18 weeks but my shorts and pants no longer fit and some of my tops are tight. It is not the easiest thing to see the scale continuing to go up, but I'm still convinced I gained at least 2 pounds in each boob a lone! I can't believe I'm almost halfway there. It's kinda scary how much bigger I'm going to get! The baby is only about 7 ounces at this point!!

This past weekend we hosted Father's Day. It was nice seeing my Grandparents and getting together with family. Dan was awesome on the grill as usual. He cooked up some burgers, chicken and ribs. It was a nice time. I also whipped up two of my apple pies. I have to admit-I have apple pie down :). My parents gave Dan a nice card. Dan has been great thus far and is going to be a wonderful Dad. 

Baby Thoughts: I don't have much to say this week lol. I am really looking forward to the next doctor's appointment on July 1. I want to see that our baby is growing healthy and am anxious for confirmation of a boy or girl. 

On to Week 19!
