Weeks 14 and 15

<Note: I'm currently 16.5 weeks along, so this is a backtrack/catch-up post...>

 

 

14 Weeks

 

 

 

15 Weeks

HUGE difference, huh?!?!? (For the record-- I'm joking. I see no difference in pics.)

Size of Baby: In week 14 the baby was a size of a lemon and by week 15 it grew to the size of apple. If you include his/her lil' legs, by week 15 baby was the length of an iPhone! CRAAAAZY!!!!!

Symptoms: Lots of round ligament pain. I hear it's not suppose to happen quite to early, but I talked to my doctors about it and they aren't worried, so I'm not worried. I'm also having some crazy bad headaches. Boo. Sleep is still nowhere near normal, which blows. I suppose I should just re-define normal in my head. I've also been breaking out like WOAH. My face looks like a 15 year old boys. G-R-O-S-S. Heartburn has also already started coming around. Hopefully it's not here to stay til the end... we'll see. Oh, and I did get sick-sick one more time during week 15... threw up the salad I ate about 5 minutes before. Bleah. But, I felt 100% fine 2 minutes later and have felt fine since.

Weight Gain: Had a doctor's appointment at 16 weeks and at that appointment I was officially up 4 pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight. I imagine week 14 & 15 were probably about 3 pounds up. I'm in the normal range, so I'm happy!  

Workouts: Pretty good! Not much running, but that's mainly due to this damn knee than any baby issues. So, I've been spinning, ellipticalling, and walking a lot.

Food Aversions: Nada. I still don't WANT bacon, but the idea of it doesn't gross me out anymore. Hot coffee still doesn't appeal, but doesn't make me wanna gag either.

Food Cravings: Mac and cheese

Stretch Marks: None yet!

Movement: Haven't felt anything yet.... cannot wait though!!! Should be any day now.

Waiting For...: The first movement and our 20-week doctor's appointment to get to see the lil' bean and find out gender!
