15 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights

How far along: I am 15 weeks today

Size of baby: Baby Stanford is the size of a Navel Orange (4-4 1/2 inches long.)

Total weight gain/loss: I have finally gained a pound back!

Maternity Clothes: Not as often as I would like, but as soon as summer hits I will live in maternity jeans! My work pants are pretty close to being to tight to wear.

Gender: We find out in 3 more weeks, but everything and everyone has said it's a boy!

Movement: None so far, but it shouldn't be too much longer!

What I miss: I miss going a whole day without any back pain. I use to only get back pain after a long day of marching band rehearsal, but now I have back pain for no reason at all.

Cravings: Nothing specific this week, but having a normal appetite is nice.

Symptoms: Needing a bathroom break every 15 minutes... Although I can't feel our little one moving, I think s/he is dancing on my bladder.

Best moment this week: Having enough energy to clean my house from top to bottom, oh and to cook dinner!

1 & 1/2 more days until summer!!!

14 Weeks

As soon as we found out we were pregnant I started planning how we should document my pregnancy experience. After seeing how Whitney Rodgers blogged weekly throughout her pregnancy I decided I would do the same!

I know I'm starting a little late, (I had planned to start at 10 weeks) but this past few weeks of school have been CRAZY!!!

How far along: I am 14 weeks today

Size of baby: Baby Stanford is the size of a Peach (3- 3 1/2 inches long.)

Total weight gain/loss: I have lost a total of 9 pounds so far.

Maternity Clothes: Occasionally, especially when there’s a big pile of dirty laundry. But, since losing 25 pounds (from January till now) most of my clothes fit like maternity clothes.

Gender: We find out in 4 Weeks!!

Movement: None so far, but we are looking forward to feeling our little wiggler.

What I miss: I miss having energy! I feel exhausted all of the time which then leads to me doing NOTHING when I finally make it home. My house and car are a mess, I haven’t cooked in at least a month, and I have dirty laundry out the Wazoo! I’m so ready to feel like myself again!

Cravings: Pickle Juice!

Symptoms: Fatigue!!! These past few weeks of school have been crazy, so I hope once the

 stress has calmed down I will be less tired.

Best moment this week: Receiving a precious Mother’s Day Mother-to-be card from my sweet Husband and Mother-in-law.

This past  Friday we had our 3rd doctor's appointment. It was a typical appointment... weigh in, pee in a cup, ask questions... but we also were able to hear our sweet baby's heartbeat again! It's so wonderful to know God has blessed us with a healthy little miracle! We also found out we will have the "BIG Sonogram" done when we go back on June 11. At this appointment the doctor will give our little one a good look over, and we will hopefully find out the gender of our precious little baby!
