Seventeen And Eighteen Weeks

Seventeen Weeks

Eighteen Weeks

Wow! What a difference one week makes in belly size! I still haven't felt Jackson kick, but I don't even know how to recognize it if he does. School has also started and while it's nice to get back into a regular routine it definitely ups my exhaustion level. Standing on my feet for hours each day has been difficult! Unfortunately due to the stress of starting school again, taking classes for my master's, planning a wedding, and preparing for this baby I have actually dropped weight instead of putting it on! It would be nice if I could insulate myself in a little cocoon until the baby is born because I know how bad stress is for him. Too bad life doesn't work that way! Hopefully things slow down soon and my stress level will go down accordingly!
