18 weeks!


















Well, hey there, belly...

This weekend we also ushered in our baby's 18th week of life!

18th week highlights:
*I have begun to feel the baby move!  At a cultural dance performance the other night, the little thing was groovin' to the music (or so it seemed to me)
*Nausea is far less common, though not gone altogether
*I have an appetite back!  Food is pleasurable these days...which is a good thing.

18th week aches and pains:
*Sleeping is getting more difficult.  I wake up with sore hips every morning...interesting.
*I am constantly hungry and while it's also a good thing, it can make trips, traveling, etc. difficult.
*itchy skin/headaches

We are thankful for this little one.  Thanks for the prayers for baby and us...they're very much appreciated :)

  2. Yay! Baby kicks! I really felt the first good ones yesterday too (but it's my 2nd you feel 'em a bit sooner). And your belly is too cute! I know you have a good idea of what baby is, but I'm still guessing girl (esp because nausea is still hanging around) but yay if it's boy too!
    Sorry about the hip pain! You can do it! And the fun really starts when it feels like baby is playing guitar with your spinal cord. :) Yay for baby Palmer!
