15 Weeks

How far along: 15 Weeks 5 days



Total Weight Gain/Loss: I am down to 194 so I am not sure if I have gained or lost recently but it's still a loss from the last Dr. appointment.


Maternity Clothes: Still trying to get some wear out of my normal clothes


Stretch Marks: Just the ones on my stomach. RJ brought me some cocoa butter lotion and we'll see if that helps.


Sleep: Ehh I could always use a little more please.


Movement: I think I have felt the baby for sure a few times lately. Once I felt a thump from the inside but I haven't felt anything that strong since.


Food Cravings/Aversions: Still drinking lemonade like it's going out of style. My nausea made a surprise appearance again this last weekend and I lost my lunch : (


Gender: I'm not sure but at least we have an ultrasound date so the countdown is on for April 23.


Belly Button In or Out: Still in but getting more shallow


What I Miss: Being able to open up my medicine cabinet and take whatever I needed to make myself feel better. I have kept a stopped up nose for the last couple of weeks and I can't get much relief.


What I am Looking Forward To: My next Dr. appointment because it's hard to believe that little bean we saw at 7 weeks resembles a human now.


Weekly Wisdom: Don't worry about all the little things that can go wrong and enjoy your pregnancy


Best Moment This Week: Getting to hear that little heartbeat again at 155 bpm. I've been waiting for what seems like forever just to get a date for the ultrasound so now I can at least tell people something when they ask what we are having. I talked with my Dr. about her last day and she was very sweet and said that she wanted us to try and schedule ahead so that she could have one last appointment with her before she leaves. Now I get one more visit with her on her last day in the office and the last 20 weeks are going to be with my new Dr.


Continuing the march toards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements.
