Yay for the awesomeness that comes with the second trimester!!
I thought I felt pretty good the first trimester and only complained of migraines but now looking back I have sooooo much more energy and am super happy!
I have had a few breakdown moments that I will get to a little later but overall I have thoroughly enjoyed my pregnancy and am so excited for what is in store!!
We had an appointment last friday morning and the baby has a super strong LOUD heartbeat at 153beats per minute =) There is nothing greater than hearing that comforting "swooshing" sound. No better way to start your morning off!
We go back in 2wks and we get to find out whether M&M is a boy or girl and I am so0o0o excited and axious!!!
-What do you think???
So as i mentioned earlier, I indeed have had a few breakdowns and my husbands biggest question to me is always why are you crying? He doesn't ever ask are you ok? is there anything I can do?
so i finally looked at him w/ red eyes and tears and said for future reference don't ever ask me why i'm crying because honestly I don't know why I am crying. I am annoyed that I am even crying which in return makes me cry more. lol he looked at me and was like seriously? lol But for the record i've only done this 3times now and its just super annoying!
Future baby daddys: the BEST advice I can give you is to: NEVER ask your wife why she is crying because she doesn't have an answer as to why, and you questioning her will just make her even more upset- so instead ask her if she is ok? or if you can do anything =)
I will update soon as the big gender reveal appointment is scheduled for May 3rd =) =)
How far along? 18weeks
Total weight gain/loss? I have currently only gained 6 pounds =).
Maternity clothes? Only jeans- all my dress clothes still fit and shirts- jeans arn't so giving in the waist ;)
Stretch marks? None, thank goodness.
Sleep? I seem to be sleeping pretty well- Husband has informed me that sense I have been pregnant I make this so called "whimpering" noise right as I am falling asleep (clearly I have no recollection of this) so I have convinced him that its the baby talking to him =)
Best moment last week? Hearing M&M's strong heartbeat 153!
Movement? I have felt lots of "fluttering" the best way to describe it, is as if you have captured a butterfly in your hand =)
Food cravings? I went through a stage of wanting salty- now I am on to sweets and lately I've wanted to eat lots of salads and with italian dressing! Yummy!
Gender? Find out soon!!! May 3rd! CAN'T WAIT!!!
Labor signs? Negative!
Belly button in/out? Innie- and I mark my words that My belly button will not pop out! It is so far innie that I can't even see where it ends ha ha.
What I miss: Being useful. I wish i was in that nesting stage- I haven't gotten there yet .
What I am looking forward to: our next appointment!!!
Milestones: Waiting to get an actual noticable "bump" so people don't think i've just gained weight =)
