Week 20

How far along? 20 Weeks 2 days

Total weight gain/loss: Ugh.. 16?? (its good for the baby, right?)

Maternity clothes? I would say yes!  Mostly because they are WAY more comfortable

Stretch marks? Not that I got this amazing cream that I apply religiously

Sleep: Sleeping great, minus waking up to pee every night at 3 am.

Best moment this week: finding out that baby C is a SHE! :)

Miss Anything? I miss my large coffee in the morning!

Movement: Feeling it just a little each day!  They feel like they are getting stronger.

Food cravings: Fruits and Sweets ... guessing all the sugar is contributing to my weight gain more than the growing babe in my belly... what you're not supposed to eat four bowls of chocolate cherios for breakfast??

Anything making you queasy or sick: Negative 

Have you started to show yet: People have been asking me, so YES!

Gender prediction: Girl.. and I was right! I have had so many dreams recently having a baby girl who looks just like me when I was a baby... weird but I always wake up so happy!

Labor Signs: No (I will crap my pants when I finally say yes to this question.. so nervous!!)

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On... with some lotion :)

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!

Looking forward to: Feeling more movement & finally being able to do some shopping!

Dan's moment of the week!  We bought our first onesie for baby girl and he is so excited!

Week 19

This week was pretty exciting getting ready for my friend Amy's baby shower.  She is due pretty soon and it is so fun to talk to her everyday about what is going on with my body, my emotions, and just silly things that you only experience when you are pregnant!  Thanks for being there for me Amy!  Here are a few great shots of Amy's shower!

I seriously can't wait till my baby shower rolls around.  It was so much fun hanging out and celebrating a baby-to-be!  


Next week is our BIG reveal week where we get to share the gender of our little one.  I have been waiting for this day for the last 20 weeks!  I am so excited I can't stand it.  After we find out the sex, everything will start falling into place :)


Thanks for reading my blog!  Oh yeah... and thanks to my friend Brittney for the lovely "candid" shots of me above.  She cracks me up.

Week 18

How far along? 18 Weeks 2 days

Baby Size: a large bell pepper!

Total weight gain: mmmm... not sure because I hid my scale :)

Maternity clothes? I have been trying to get creative with what clothes I have

Stretch marks? Nope...

Sleep: Every night is different, some nights are wonderful and others I only get a few hours

Best moment this week: I am feeling KICKS!  They are super small, but it feels so good to finally feel baby Clemons in there!

Movement: Little kicks every now and then (more like flutters)

Food cravings: Vanilla Bean Fraps from Starbucks

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really anything out of the norm.

Gender: 2 more weeks!

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Not yet!

Belly Button in or out? Inie

Wedding rings on or off? On, but some days its a little tight, eeek!

Mood: Not so moody this week, just happy!

I am so excited that I finally booked my flight home for my baby shower!  I was debating waiting till July so I was further along, because everyone wants to see an extra large belly.  After talking to a friend she suggested that I come home earlier so I am not so uncomfortable on the 3.5 hour flight!  I am only going to be 28 weeks.... but still a bump nonetheless :)

Also, I can not stop looking at baby blogs, baby sites, baby reviews.. baby baby baby!  There are so many things on my to-do-list I think I need to make a calendar so I can break things down week by week so they are a slight bit more manageable.

Now that we found out Baby Clemons can hear us, we have starting singing and talking to them!  Dan likes to show the baby funny YouTube videos and I like to sing and tell it how much we love them and look forward to September!
