Bump Day Baby #2 - Week 18



  • The baby is now the size of a sweet potato
  • The baby is passing the time by yawning, hiccuping, rolling, twisting, kicking, punching, sucking and swallowing.
  • I'm feeling movements a lot more now. Last night as I lay to go to sleep, he/she was in there moving like crazy...that feeling will NEVER get old.
  • I'll have a doctors appointment next week to know how much I have gained. That will tell me if I need to lay off the girl scout cookies or not ;)
  • Haven't purchased any new maternity clothes this week but I think I really need to. Just using a hair tie and the belly band for most of my work pants is getting uncomfortable, especially when I am working 12+ hour days.
  • Still sleeping just great. I'm using my pregnancy pillow I got when pregnant with Turner and LOVE IT...even if it takes up so much room in our Queen size bed.
  • Still have no caved and wanted to know the gender. We have our ultra sound scheduled for 3/10. I don't want to know but I do...it's so difficult. But Tate won't let me change my mind so I'm pretty sure it will be a surprise in July.
  • Still no progress nursery and nothing will happen until after tax season. I'm been pining ideas like crazy though.
  • Doing many other house projects though. I don't know why I do this to myself when I am working so much...but I do because I can't sit still and LOVE to cross things off our long list of items to get done before baby comes. Currently in the process of painting our entry and upstairs living room. 
Tate and I tackled priming the red wall on Sunday. 
  • Starting to feel that this pregnancy is going by super fast. At first I didn't think it was but now that I am almost at the 1/2 way point has me worried about getting everything done. I know everything will fall into place and it will be perfect for us...but being the worry wart I am, it's always on my mind.
  • Last week was Ash Wednesday and I gave up Facebook for lent. It's been very difficult especially when I know pictures from Jamaica are being posted...but I knew if I was going to give something up, it had do be something that I felt was difficult for me to do. Since that day, I have become more active on Twitter ;)

  2. I don't think I would ever be able to wait 40 weeks to know the gender but think the surprise at the end would be SO cool and really special! I say stick to your guns! :)

  3. I love the idea of being surprised, but I also know that I'm a crazy person and I really don't know if I could do it. I can't imagine working 12 hour days and then doing home projects. You're a super woman!! :)
