Week 18: Allergies and more
Ugh! My allergies have really been getting the better of me lately. It doesn't help that I'm allergic to our cats and dog, and the allergies only seem to be getting worse. I've read that with pregnancy one's allergy symptoms may be reduced... yeah, must be nice to be so lucky!! I can't wait to be through the summer and into the fall... my allergies aren't quite so bad during the cooler seasons. So far it's been a pretty hot summer with temperatures regularly in the mid 30s (C).
Right now we're really looking forward to our prenatal appointment on Wednesday and our ultrasound on Thursday. I'm so excited to see the baby!
I've been feeling pretty well lately, and I think my energy levels are slowly getting back to normal.
I'm still not really looking pregnant, but I suspect somewhere between weeks 20 and 22 I'll begin to look pregnant instead of like someone who's had more than her share of cookies.
The baby continues to move. I don't feel movement everyday, but usually when I'm sitting or lying still I will feel a little something. Sometimes I think I feel something and can't be sure, but once in a while there is no doubt in my mind that this little munchkin is doing somersaults!
It's been a busy day around the house. Nic finished painting the kitchen today and we've had new floors installed over the last while, so today we worked to get the house back to some state of normalcy.
We're also getting a new dining room set in September. It's on order. It will seat 10, which is perfect, because it looks like we'll be having the family to our place this Christmas. Since my due date is the 28th it remains to be seen if we'll have one more person for Christmas this year!
