Week 18

Week 18 Belly Shot

Hungry? An increase in appetite is pretty common about now. Make it count by choosing meals and snacks that are rich in nutrients (fresh fruit and veggies, yogurt, nuts) instead of empty calories (chips, french fries, pastries). You may soon begin to feel achiness around your lower abdomen; this comes from your ligaments stretching as your uterus grows. Your baby's active these days — kicking, reaching, and flexing his arms and legs. You may even begin to feel his movements. If not this week, then soon.

Wow...this week has been so exciting between the ultrasound, showing off our baby ultrasound. The week has flown by. I have been feeling the baby move a bit more which is really cool. I felt baby moving a couple of mornings ago just as I was getting ready to get out of bed. Still feeling gaggy on my toothbrush, and well. Tired. Go figure. LOL.
