Yes, it looks like I've just been eating too many jelly donuts instead of having a true bump. I want a nice round bump that identifies me as preggo!!!! :) But the key thing is that I am in fact still pregnant and my little pumpkin is on track.
Weight: +10 gulp. Yep, in the month since my last appointment, I gained five pounds which is way too much for me! Since I'm already a made-with-butter-girl, I don't really need to gain a ton of weight. What's crazy is this happened in four days when I went to see my sister-in-law in New Hampshire. Hello? Go away weight gain! My midwife didn't give me a lecture, but she did tell me to be careful.
Clothes: Maternity shirts, shorts, and jeans combined with regular undies and my regular athletic pants.
Cravings: salad with juicy tomatoes and strangely I really want a giant rice crispy treat.
What I'm actually eating: salad wherever I can get it, oatmeal or shredded wheat, bananas, oranges, triscuits, sandwiches
Move status: We're waiting for the movers to come after the long weekend. However our house is ruthlessly organized, clothes are packed in suitcases, and our trailer is packed. Since we'll be gone for about three weeks traveling up to Alaska and then probably in a hotel for a month, we have quite a bit of stuff to actually take with us. Hence, we have a trailer! There are only a few staples in the refrigerator and we are now transitioning to finding food outside of the house. This makes eating healthy difficult but not impossible!
Hope all is well with you!

Hooray for belly pics!!! 18 weeks already???!!! You're almost halfway there!! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLooking cute! Congrats on 18 weeks!
ReplyDeleteyou look great! good luck with the move ;)
ReplyDeleteYou look great, and get out and walk your dog tons during the trip to help counter balance all the eating out and sitting. Love ya!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work! The bump will come!!! Just enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteHooray for baby bumps! You look great! Hope you have a wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteI love that you have a sweet potato! I definately notice the bump!!!! You are doing great on your weight too. You can always feel better when you talk to me about where I was right now. I had gained about 30 lbs by this point!!!!! You look great!! Love you much!
ReplyDeleteYou look phenomenal. Nearly halfway there! Looks like you are eating very healthy... fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHey, nice pics! Don't sweat 10 lbs (and I'm surprised your midwife said anything...isn't a lb a week right on track for the 2nd trimester?). I gained really slowly then suddenly gained 4lbs in a week between 18 and 19 weeks. No change in diet or exercise. I'm hoping it was just a growth spurt! Also, I'm impressed with your salad cravings.
ReplyDeleteYou look great! And weight gain goes in fits and starts, or so I was told. I am totally impressed with your healthy eating!!
ReplyDeleteI think you look so cute! Yay preggo belly pics. :)
ReplyDeleteYou look great and how exciting about the move. While I'm sorry to hear you are leaving my great state of MO ;), I am so excited to hear about your journey to Alaska. To me that would be the coolest thing ever - taking a month or so to drive to Alaska. I can't even imagine! Take care of yourself and the little baby while you are traveling. Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteYou're looking so cute! When I first saw the picture on the preview picture, I thought, "Wow, she hasn't gotten much bigger since the last picture!" and then I realized you had the same shirt on in both pictures! Duh! Hope you're feeling great and the move goes smooth! I can't imagine moving that far away. We had friends that lived in Alaska for a few years and they loved it! It sounds like a beautiful place to be.
ReplyDeleteLooking good - you'll have a round bump before you know it!!! Good luck w/ the move.
ReplyDeleteHoly moly, you are 18 weeks already? Unbelieveable. And you look GREAT (I agree with Maddy's boob comment too) xxx
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think that's a super cute preggo belly :)
ReplyDeleteWhistling: Pheeeewtphewwwwt!
You'll get super sized and wonder why you wanted a giant belly soon enough.
I love the pictures! I definitely think you look prego!!!
