Baby M #2: 18 weeks (& 4 Days) Survey & Belly Shot

Since I turn 19 weeks today, I thought it better get this up before it's too late!
Please excuse the unmade bed as well as the iPhone image. I promise you a better picture next week. 

How Far Along: 18 weeks (& 4 Days in the picture)

Size of baby: 
A SWEET POTATO! 5.6 inches, 6.7 ounces 

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Much to my surprise, I have only gained 2 pounds total! Shocked!

Maternity Clothes: Pants, yes. Everything else is still my regular clothes. 

Gender: A sweet baby GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Movement: Yes! She is certainly an active little thing! 

What I miss: Back to missing turkey sandwiches. 

Sleep: Pretty good. Mason is working through some sleep regression issues so aside from that, I've been sleeping fairly well. 

Symptoms: I can feel some tightness in my lower abdomen but nothing painful.

Cravings: Candy. Anything fruity and gummy.  

Best Moment this week: Finding out the gender of Baby #2 and learning that all test came back perfectly normal and sweet baby girl looked healthy on the ultrasound.  

What we are looking forward to: Starting the nursery. Crib has been ordered!
