Week 18

Growing, growing, growing. I went into see my new OB here on Wednesday and I have to say, I am very happy with him. I wasn't quite sure how I would like having a male doctor because I have had females only up to this point. He was great though. He answered all my questions and gave great advice. Things I was worried about he calmly explained to me. He measured my belly and I was already measuring at 30 weeks...I cant wait to see what I will look like at 30 weeks!

So updates for this week are that the babies are kicking a lot more than they have before. They really react to orange juice and jump around a lot anytime I drink it. I am actually down a size from before I was pregnant. I asked the doctor about that and he said nicely, that since I wasn't the smallest girl out there that it was ok if I lost a little weight it wouldn't hurt the babies. As long as I don't go crazy everything will be fine. This week I think I am finally going to graduate into maternity shirts. All my shirts I have been using are not quite long enough anymore. Cravings are not really there for me...other than coke. Oh what I wouldn't give to sit down with a 2 liter of Coke right now. Its more of food aversions that I have been dealing with. Eggs and greasy food make me gag just thinking about them. So far this pregnancy has been great. I can't really complain too much.
