Weeks 13 - 15

I am getting behind! So, I'm going to cover the last 2 weeks and this upcoming week. 


Baby is the size of: an apple

Symptoms: Nausea and vomiting are almost completely gone. I'm still very tired most days, I'm starting to think it's because I get up a hundred times a night to go to the bathroom - ok, really just like 3 or 4, but not sleeping through the night does take a toll. 

Maternity clothes: My early maternity clothes that I wore with EC are too tight, mainly because I was 15 lbs heavier when I got pregnant this time that I was with her. So that doesn't work. My later maternity clothes are heavy sweaters and pants and it's still 90 degrees outside. So that doesn't work either. This has really been stressing me out lately.

Sleep: Pretty tired all the time right now.

Fun moment(s) this past week: I went to the doctor last week and got to schedule the ultrasound appointment (Oct. 19), so that was a lot of fun! This past weekend, EC and I had a girls day. She's always talking about having a girls day, so I thought it would be a good time. We went and got our toes done and went to "Little Rado's" (Laredo's Mexican Restaurant) for lunch, her choice. I am really enjoying spending time just she and I.

Movement: Still feeling a few flutters here and there, not quite as much as I was, but I've been really busy lately, so I haven't taken the time to really sit still.

Food cravings/aversions: I am starting to crave chocolate. For those of you who know me, you know how strange that is. I hate chocolate...normally. I find this one very strange. But, the cravings and aversions to change almost daily right now.

Gender & Name: Don't know yet, hopefully will find out on October 19. Have names pick out, but not telling

Weight gained: I'm going to avoid this one for now. At the appointment last week, I realized I had gained more weight than I'd hoped. I've got to work on this one.

Belly Button in or out: In, but I can see the inside of my belly button now, which means it is going to flatten out again with this pregnancy like it did with EC.

What I am looking forward to: I am so ready for my October appointment so that we can find out what this little bug is! I am also really excited about the trip John has planned for us. We leave for Boston/Cape Cod at the end of October and I am in need of a vacation!
