How far along? 18 +2
Total weight gain: Lost 10lbs in first trimester, gained 6lbs in the second so at -4lbs currently.
Maternity clothes? No but I have invested in belly belts and belly bands which means I can still wear the new clothes I bought before I fell pregnant. Tried out a belly band today as my jeans are a little loose wearing them bellow the bump and it held them comfortably in place and I didn't need to worry that my vest top kept rising up. Great investment.
Stretch marks? Only the old ones for my first pregnancy.
Sleep: Broken, I seem to have the frequent urination back again and it doesn't just feel like I need to go, I really need to go. So I'm getting up three to four times a night at the moment.
Best moment this week: Baby being a right little mover and shaker for certain periods of the day.
Movement: Yup Yup! Hubby can't feel it yet but they are stronger then last week and more pronounced.
Food cravings: Food... No really I am loving my grub, mostly sweet stuff like apples, chocolate and pastry (not good for the weight gain). So food mad at the moment that I am also watching the food network A LOT! Never really interested in food programs before now which is odd.
Gender: Still unknown but Hubbys side of the family are 98% Male and mine is 50/50.
Labor signs: Nope, light braxtons and a few growing pains but nothing bad.
Symptoms: Still get sick in the mornings unless I take a pill it will last all day, boobs are still tender, back aches, tired all the time and hungry too.
Belly button in or out? In, was in last time and don't think it will pop this time as there is an overhang/bridge at the top of it. Fun to play with though tehehe!
Wedding rings on or off? On, never needed to remove them last time. Hopefully I'll get to keep them on this time.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy most of the time although all hell could break loose if you cross me when I'm hungry. Really can't handle whiny people at the moment either.
Other News: Midwife on Friday, hopefully we'll hear the baby heartbeat again and then the Friday after that is the 2nd scan where, fingers crossed, we'll find out the sex of the baby. Excited but pretty sure its a little boy in there. That's a good thing though as I know what I'm doing with a boy haha!

When that nappy comes off consider the little man armed and oddly accurate. Within 48hrs I had screached 'he peed on my face! My face!' he's also peed in my mums tea. |

I lay in bed at night trying to fight it I always lose the battle then im on the run to the bathroom. Im glad you know about raising boys I will definitely need some tips! |
