Lima Bean: Week Eighteen



How far along: Eighteen weeks as of Wednesday, February 12, 2014. 
Size of baby: Lima Bean is about 5.5 inches long, the length of a bell pepper, and weighs almost 7 ounces.
Maternity Clothes: Still no pants, only a couple of tops.  I have to say, I pulled out my bin of maternity clothes this week and thought, "Ugh!" when I saw them.  I am already tired of them and I haven't even worn them yet.  I think they wore out their welcome during Henry's pregnancy.  Will have to buy a few new things, especially for the warmer months.
Movement: Yep, and I love it!
Sex of baby: I had a dream this week that I was holding a boy baby.  In the dream, the baby was supposed to be Henry, but since he is 19 months old, that doesn't make much sense.  So, perhaps Lima Bean is a boy?!
Sleep: Fine.
What I miss: Oh, what I would give for a deli sandwich or pre-made chicken salad.
Cravings: Cinnamon-flavored things: cinnamon rolls, cereal, and coffee creamer have all made it into the lineup this week.
Symptoms: Tiredness, bad skin, some sharp waves of abdominal pain that I think is round ligament stretching.
What I'm looking forward to: This doesn't have anything to do with Lima Bean, but warmer weather so I can get outside, take Henry for long walks, and get some exercise!  I am so tired of the snow and winter weather.  This winter seems as though it will never end!
