15 Weeks

How far along: 15 weeks 

How big is baby: Baby has graduated to the size of an orange.

I couldn't get a good bump picture with this dress on but I was too tired to change so you get the idea.

Weight gain: 127.3

Maternity clothes: Dresses and whatever bigger jeans I can find in my closet to wear with a belly band so that I don't have to zip them up.

Sleep: I'm actually sleeping through the night more which is really nice. I even slept in past 8 am this morning for the first time in a looong time.

Best moment of the week: Hearing more information about our soon to be home! The inspection is on Monday and then the appraisal and closing coming soon after that. We are so lucky and fortunate to have a handful of amazing friends and family who are offering to help us move in. We will definitely be throwing a house warming BBQ after that :) Also, I've been spending some time catching up with missed friends this week like Libby and Athena & Josh and I really loved doing that.

Food cravings: More lemonade. I'm also drinking as much orange juice as I can remember to because my baby emails are all saying that I need to get a good daily dose of Vitamin C for the baby's health. I'm still really craving Mexican food and Rock Bottom's seared Ahi Tuna (which I can't have until after pregnancy). Oh and Chicken Bacon Ranch Crepes! They are sooo good.

 

Food aversions: Smells.

Symptoms: My back has been hurting really badly, Julie (Adam's mama) thinks it's because the baby is probably sitting on my sciatic nerve since that's the area that almost paralyzes me at times. It's also because of the ligaments and muscles loosening up and everything separating.

Belly Button: Innie

Wedding Ring on or off: On, no swelling yet.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy.

Movement: Maybe I'll feel some in 3 more weeks.

Gender: I'm hoping we can find out at our next appointment which will be 16 weeks but they told me I don't find out until the 20 week appointment.

What I’m looking forward to: Seeing the next ultrasound and moving in to our house.

What I miss:Vacation and relaxing! Our busy work season is almost over.
