Maternity Series – Week 18

Maternity Series - Week Eighteen

Eighteen Weeks – so close to the halfway mark! I’m so impatient now for our twenty week scan! I wish I could go right now. We’ve been talking names this week, and think we have *the one*. My fabulous new pram arrived this wee – thanks to Cosatto. So all we really need are clothes once we know the gender!

I’m still feeling pretty good, a little tired but ok in general. Sleeping is starting to get a little uncomfortable. I need an extra pillow or two else I wake up with an aching back. There’s not much else to say at this stage… all is good and we’re just impatient for December to arrive and this little bubba!

I treated myself this week to a pair of maternity jeans and a white maternity dress.. I tend to live in leggings and long vests, I’ve a few skirts that have stretchy waistbands that will go under my bump, and my normal shorts still fit {for now!} I need to pay a visit to h&m to stock up on a few more of their long vests – they’re great for layering with shorter tops, and they’ll keep my bump covered and cosy all the way!

dear baby.. week eighteen

    You’re looking great. I always struggled with maternity wear, I could never find comfy jeans so stuck to leggings and long tops.

    How cute you look in your outfit. Maternity wear sure has come a long way since I wore it.

    You look stunning! How exciting, only having two weeks to go until you find out. Surely it will be a girl? I was so excited for our 20 week scan too, also scared to death (but that’s just me) x

    You look fab. I ended up just wearing leggings all through my pregnancy, slowly getting bigger in size! Then I wore them after too but they slowly decreased in size until I could fit into normal clothes again! x

    December must seem like such a long way way at the moment. I ended up wearing my husband’s coat during the last weeks of my pregnancies!

    Congratulations on making it almost halfway through. I totally understand you can’t wait for the 20-week scan. That makes conceptualizing your little one more real.

    Leggings and vests are so useful when pregnant, aren’t they? But it’s nice to splash out on other things – my favourites were H&M, New Look and Asos when pregnant.

    You look lovely – blooming! H&M is great isn’t it? I also love the maternity clothes at Asos for inexpensive essentials. I expect I’ll be wearing my long vests and comfy trousers long after this baby is born! Thanks for linking up to the #BlogBumpClub again. Sorry my comment is a bit late – I don’t know where the time has gone this week! xx

    You look brilliant. I love your style and I am excited to read a post about the sex of the baby. If you are after some other maternity clothes I always found Next and Asos to be great! x
