18 Weeks!!! It's a BOY!!!!

How Far Along: 18 Weeks
Size of baby: 5 1/2 inches long and weighs 7 ounces!! HE is about the length of a bell pepper!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 7 pounds, I was afraid that I had gained a lot while we were on vacation because we ate a lot more than normal, so I was glad to see that I just gained 1 pound. However, my belly has really grown in the last 2 weeks, I love it!
Maternity Clothes: I'm wearing mostly maternity pants, but still my normal shirts.
Gender: It's a BOY!!!! We had our sonogram on Monday 11/8 and we saw his "boy parts" right away!
Movement: His movements are becoming more recognizable and frequent.
Food Cravings: No real cravings right now. Just about anything sounds good to eat, except pork or chicken.
What I miss: I can't say that I miss a thing, I'm really enjoying being pregnant.
Sleep: I'm having more trouble getting comfortable while sleeping. Since I'm just sleeping on my side, my hips get very sore after I lay on one side for a while. No crazy dreams in a while.
Symptoms: Mostly just being uncomfortable while sleeping. I am feeling so good and have plenty of energy. This is such a nice change!
Best Moment this week: The sonogram on Monday! It was amazing to get to see our little guy and know that he is healthy.
What I am looking forward to: Decorating Mason's room and his movements being strong enough for other people to feel.
