I can’t believe we are almost half way through this pregnancy! In some ways, I feel like I should already be approaching the finish line, but in others I feel like I just found out I’m pregnant. I am just now beginning to feel better – thank you Jesus! I still have heartburn and some nausea at night, but have much more energy!
How Far Along: 19 Weeks
Size of baby: Baby is the size of an heriloom tomato!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 18 lbs – Wowzers!
Maternity Clothes: Yes! Love dresses & jammies! 
Gender: Can’t wait to find out! August 3rd!
Movement: I’ve been feeling the baby move at night. Small flutters, rolls but can tell baby is getting stronger.
Sleep: Much better now that I take Pepcid before I go to sleep.
What I miss: Nothing right now. I am trying to enjoy this pregnancy because I know it will be done before I know it.
Cravings: milk, pickles, tuna fish, apples, red gatorade (I think this baby might be tinted pink from all the red gatorade I’ve had to drink. I just can’t stop drinking it – it tastes sooo good!)
Symptoms: nausea and heartburn at night. Hot all the time!
Best Moment this week: Feeling the baby more and more. Feeling better!
And, I have belly pics!! I say this baby has a luxury condo in there!

Cute dress! You look adorable! That doesn’t look like 18 lbs. Glad you are feeling better!

You are too cute! && I cannot believe how big the boys are getting. Seems like yesterday ou were pregnant with them!
Ahh! So I hate to be the overbearing friend, but I was checking out Nancy’s photos and Warner (well I think it was Warner – on the left) has the same markings on his legs as Eli. We discovered it was a gluten allergy (after MONTHS of misery) and as long as it is kept from his diet – those little legs are clear as a baby’s bum! Just thought I would mention it – because it was a bear of a problem for us. 😉 Love, Meg
ML – somehow I misplaced your blog address. Flakey, I know. So thrilled to hear of His most recent treasure of a new little one. You will surely be in my prayers. I have been most recently refreshed with the book “Loving the Little Years: Motherhood in the Trenches” – it really speaks to the heart of the matter of guiding our own hearts and theirs. Perhaps it might also lift up your heart. Love to you, dear friend!
Love the belly pics and the luxury condo comment! You are just the cutest and we can’t wait to see if you will be having another he or she!
Wow! You look absolutely gorgeous!! So glad you’re starting to feel better!
you are beautiful ML and we are praying for you & your precious family.
You look gorgeous and I love your hair!! I’m so excited for you;)
you’re so cute ML!!
Whahoo for feeling better! I’m still waiting on that day, but excited to FINALLY have my first doctors appointment this week to confirm exactly how far along I am! Just knowing that I will feel a little more at ease! And I can start doing my weekly posts too…even if it’s into the 2nd trimester! Oh well! So happy you are feeling better!
