14 weeks

In an effort to preserve the memory of what it is like to be pregnant, I will be recording on a (hopeful but doubtful) weekly basis what's going on with Mommy and Baby. And for all you lucky friends and family on the other side of the country, now you get to join in on the fun too! :) 

How far along? 14 weeks, 3 days

How are you measuring? 14 weeks, 3 days

Size of the baby? Size of a lemon

Total Weight Gain/Loss? 0 pounds! I don't know how or why, but I'll take it without a peep!
Heartbeat? Saw the beat on ultrasound but it wasn't measured
Wearing maternity clothes? Not yet, but getting close! My closet is slim pickin's right now.
Any stretch marks? No
Best moment this week? Seeing the little munchkin on the ultrasound at the doctor's office and finding out all of the genetic testing came back A-okay! 
Movement? Not yet... that I'm aware of at least! 
Food cravings? Carrots and Celery, Hot Tamales candy (so random!), Tomato Soup, and Breakfast Tacos (the real, legitimate Texas kind)
Food aversions? Dairy upsets my stomach, especially in the morning

Sleep? Waking up every few hours to pee and struggling to get comfy. It's already uncomfortable to lay on my stomach and I am a complete tummy sleeper!

Gender predictions? Sean is convinced it's a little girl. My heart doesn't pull either way, just give me a happy, healthy little bean! 

What I miss: Having energy, being able to effortlessly button my pants, and drinking a huge glass of water without feeling sick

What I'm looking forward to: Starting to REALLY show instead of just looking like a chunky monkey and finding out if we are expecting a girl or boy

How are you feeling? Still not feeling so hot. Went to Urgent Care on Friday to get IV fluids because I was so dehydrated from not being able to keep water down. Very frustrating but I felt so much better afterwards!

The BUMP made it's appearance last week!

lots of love,
