Weekly Pregnancy Post

I decided that every Wednesday would be dedicated to being pregnant. Wednesday's are a good day, because this is the day that a new week in my pregnancy begins.

How far along: 18 weeks
Gender: Will find out in 8 days. Cannot wait!
Pregnancy Symptoms: I'm tired a lot, but besides that, I'm feeling great.
Maternity Clothes: Exclusively for pants, but I can still wear dresses and shirts that are not maternity.
Movement: Lil monkey has been kicking away. I only feel it every couple of days. And it doesn't really feel like kicks. Just feels like a butterfly hanging out in my tummy.
Best Moment of the Week: Starting to clear out lil monkey's room so T can paint.
Food Cravings: Butterfingers, spaghetti, caffeine free coke
What I miss: Champagne
Weekly Wisdom: Take plenty time to relax. Things will get done eventually.

And here is my first belly shot for you guys at 18 weeks. Can you tell I'm pregnant?

(Picture taken just as T and I were about to go see Macbeth at the theater. Loved it!)

I have been reading your blog off and on for the past few months - mostly for information on adoption, the process, and how it was to adopt after giving up on biological children...since I may be headed in that direction. I just now saw that you're pregnant!! Congrats!! That's so incredibly amazing, and wonderful. I can't imagine how surreal it feels after having given up on fertility treatments to be given the one thing you tried so hard for. So crazy. Best of luck to you with the adoption and the little one. This post brought tears to my eyes - so very happy for you!

Petrucia said...

you look fabulous!! go girl!!
also, about the champagne you miss... try Ariel, it's a brand of non-alcoholic wines and it does wonders for our wine craving tastebuds.

You may probably be very curious to know how one can manage to receive high yields on investments.
There is no need to invest much at first.
You may commense earning with a money that usually goes

Look at that cute little belly! The sad thing is mine looks the same way and there isn't a baby in there right now. lol

Andrea said...

Leah!

How incredibly cute you are! Lovin' that bump :) Funny, cokes tasted good to me too, as everything else tasted not so good. Send nursery pic's as you make progress.

Tons of HUGS coming your way!
