Baby Bump Update - 2nd Edition

I'm back with another baby bump update, you can see the first one here.  Since my last update, I've been to the doctor for a checkup, gotten sick with some sort of yucky cold and officially had to go shopping for clothes.  Here are a few more updates:

Dr. Update: 
I went to the doctor about a week ago and all is well.  I've gained a total of 4 pounds and the baby's heart rate is going strong.  That's about it.  They really dont take alot of time for chit chat.   

Clothes: 
I'm still not wearing the maternity pants, they just fall down and are annoying.  So, I'm still wearing my regular pants and just looping them together with rubber bands.  I went shopping and got a few shirts.  I'm not loving maternity clothes, I think they're not that cute.  So, I'm trying to find 'regular' clothes that are long enough to fit.  I guess once I get super big, I'll have to switch to maternity clothes full time.  Oh boy!

Bump:
Last time I posted week 13 and 15 pic (we skipped week 14) so here are the next few weeks. Some of our pictures are not turning out as model-esk as I'd like, but here they are none the less.

Week 17


Week 18

Food:
I'm doing my best to eat healthy.  To be honest, I'm really just craving sweets but I'm trying to stay away as much as possible.  Although, I did buy a gallon of ice cream the other day.  I'm also trying to bring healthy snacks with me to work. It's harder to eat healthy on the weekends though.

Movement:
I'm feeling the baby move more now although I wouldn't say it's regular.  It still not really like a kick or a punch or anything, just a rolling around type of motion.  It still surprises me when it happens though.

Mood Swings:
I've gotten confirmation from my hubby that my mood swings are better.  I'm not feeling very moody but I thought I'd ask him just in case.  :)
 
We're going to the doctor in a few weeks to find out what we're having.  We're so excited!  I'm ready to know if our baby is a boy or girl, it seems like we'll be able to make more decisions once we know what it is.  You know. . . like a name, decor, registry items, etc.  We're very excited to find out.  :)

  4. Yeah so excited for you guys! I made it most of my pregnancy wearing a belly band instead of maternity pants - that was totally the way to go. Plus if you buy normal clothes you can wear them afterwards as well. Love the update!
