Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 15 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss: -15 due to morning sicknessness
Maternity Clothes: I have bought some, but don't have a need for them yet.
Best Moment this week: Hearing baby Marshall's heartbeat!! Four weeks is so long to go without hearing it!!
Gender: We have the opportunity to find out in about 4 1/2 weeks, but we're not going to.
Movement: Little cute flutters! I'm feeling these much earlier than I ever did with Tenley!
Food Craving: In the last few weeks I've craved Bob Evans Sausage Biscuits. Wierd I know, but it's all I ate for about a week. Lately, I haven't had many cravings.
What I miss: Sleeping through the night!
Sleep: I fall asleep quickly (which is a change for me) and sleep well until about 3am, but then I can't go back to sleep til about 6 or 7am.
What I am looking forward to: Feeling better and getting som energy back! I'm also looking forward to my next appointment.
Belly Button: In.
Symptoms: Just Tired! Still getting sick every now and then, but it's getting better.
Doctor's Update: My doctor said at my last appointment that I look great (big change from the last time she saw me when I was fighting back sickness in her office) and that I'm measuring just right and the heartbeat is right on track! Everything is great!
I'll be 15 weeks on Monday, so we're at just about the same point. Here's some differences:
How far along: 14 weeks, 3 days.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 0.
Maternity Clothes: I've been wearing my maternity capris and shorts because they are more comfortable :) Not too much need for them at this point, but some work pants are getting a little tight.
Best Moment this Week: Watching Tenley point to my stomach and say "baby!" and give him or her a kiss!
Gender: We won't find out. Best surprise ever! :)
Movement: None yet.
Food Craving: I had to laugh at my craving from my last pregnancy. This time it's just popsicles and fruit. I loved this last time too - I think it has something to do with it being summer and 95 degrees!
What I miss: I really am doing pretty well. Not a whole lot of sleepless nights yet.
Sleep: I'm pretty tired when I get to bed so I haven't had any problem with sleep. Every now and then I'll wake up early and be uncomfortable but I'll eventually go back to sleep.
Belly Button: In.
Symptoms: I've been tired. I'm not really a nap person, but I'm finding I need a nap during T's afternoon nap lately. I've gotten sick a handful of times but it's NO WHERE NEAR as bad as it was with T. Thank goodness! I'm not sure how I could have been that sick and chase a toddler around! I have been getting heartburn already though. My TUMS supply is increasing.
Doctor's Update: My next appointment is on Tuesday, but my last appointment went well. We heard the heartbeat, my blood pressure is perfect (what a relief!), and I'm measuring on track for December 16th, although because of how big Tenley was (9 lbs.) we will probably be looking at an earlier due date unless my body cooperates and I go into labor on my own, which is something I would really love!
