*~^**18 WEEKS**^~*

 Our little Spawner is now more than 14 cm long ( 5.5 inches) from head to bum and weighs about 150 grams (5.5 oz). His/her little eyes can now sense light and little bones are hardening each day. If Spawner is a girl, she now has a fully formed uterus and fallopian tubes with two million eggs in her ovaries. If Spawner is a boy it would now be easily noticeable in an ultrasound!



How far along are you: 18 weeks! I CANNOT believe this.
Size of baby: A bell pepper!
Movement: I know the babe is moving constantly because when we use the doppler and find the heartbeat, we only have a few seconds before it moves to another spot and I have to find it again. It already is learning not to co-operate with it's parents. ;)
Symptoms: Not much really! Very thankful for this.
Total weight gain: About 5-6lbs. Happy about this, too, considering I've been eating everything in sight!
Sleep: I wake up to pee and let the dog out each night which are both things I didn't do pre-pregnancy. I also wake up to roll over each night lol. But, yeah sleep is still good otherwise. Can't complain at this point.
Food aversions: Not a thing.
Cravings: I'm still loving spicy/vinegary foods.
Emotions: Happy. It's like I'm permanent uppers. Pregnancy is like an anti-depressant at this point. I honestly hope it doesn't change.
What do you miss: Nothing really. Now that I'm onto decaf coffee and frapps, there's nothing to miss!
Maternity clothes: Yes and still LOVE.
Wedding rings on or off: On.
Boy or girl: I don't know, but the moment of truth is COMING UP QUICK!!! I can't wait!
Next appt: June 24!!!!! :D We'll find out if we have a little son or daughter!!

Best moment(s) this past week: Finishing work today. Now I'm on vacation!! Woot!
What are you looking forward to this week: Going on a much needed relaxing vacation with my hubby.
