Week 18

This is just flying by isn't it?  Pregnancy is usually annoyingly slow! ha.  I feel like this is progressing at a nice pace though.

Week 18... let's see.  Heartburn is the dominant symptom.  That and a growing belly.  I have been wanting lemony things this past week.  I didn't realize it until today when I was looking up recipes for Lemon bars and Lemon cupcakes ha ha ha.  I didn't make them, but I am tempted.  I have the stuff to if I decide I can't stand it any longer. ha.

So here I am at 18 weeks.  Hello belly.
It's surely growing.  I'm just glad that it seems that my belly is the only thing growing :) I think I have gained a little bit in my legs, but not much thankfully.

Keeping my walks going everyday.  I actually look forward to them because they are a huge stress relief and help me to deal with a lot of the crazy hormones flying through my body right now.  My walk today was a tad traumatic.  I walked into a spider web with a HUGE spider on it.  I ended up having to walk home and have Dave check me over to make sure the spider was gone.  YUCKY!  I am not arachnophobic, but I don't like the buggers I tell you.

    Heartburn is my worst symptom, too!
    I'd never had it before pregnancy.
    And I never want to again. So gross!

    You are looking so great!
    I can't wait to find out what you're having. : )

    Heartburn is the worst thing yet that I've experienced in my pregnancy, although walking into a giant spider would be awful!

    I'm glad walking helps with the stress and crazy hormones. I get super teary sometimes and I can't stand being around myself when it happens.

    Aww! You are so cute!
    I'm not a lemony person. I seriously wonder what I would crave when I'm pregnant! who knows. It could be lemon flavors!
    oh man and I would be terrified if I had walked into a spider web! Glad that Dave saved the day!
