week 14


source
How far along? 14 weeks and 4 days. Sorry no pics I have been sick and I really don't want to take a picture of how I look right now.

How big is baby? necterine or navel orange, 3.5 to 4 inches long. Physical difference from last week: Nothing about the same. In maternity pants and some shirts
.
Weight gain? Lost 2 pounds so up 2 pounds since I found out I was pregnant.

How am I feeling? I starting coming down with a sore throat about Wednesday and then on Thursday congestion started and by Friday I was losing my voice. I had a baby shower to throw on Saturday. I was coughing up phlegm and feeling miserable so I went to instacare. Turns out just a lot of congestion and being pregnant intensifies it all. Got on an antibiotic and feeling a little better. Otherwise I love that morning sickness is gone!

What's on my mind? Hoping to feel better. Getting so excited to gind out the gender.
 
Best Moment of the Week? Just loving looking less fat and more pregnant.

week 13




How far along?  13 weeks 1 day some sites say I am onto my 2nd trimester some say this is the last week who knows.

How big is baby?  The size of a lemon or a tangerine.  All vital systems are developed.  The baby can smile now and has all its teeth in its gums.

Physical differences from last week?  Tummy is getting a little rounder not much else. 

Weight gain: +2 pounds from last appointment 4 weeks ago.  According to my scale (naked) this morning I was up +1.7 pounds from when I found out I was pregnant 9 weeks ago.

How I am feeling?  This week was a rough week.  Weston, Cason and I all came down with the pukes.  Just as my morning sickness was disapating.  I am getting more energy back and feel much more normal all around.  Not having to pee quite as often but still a lot.

What's on my mind?  Wondering what the gender of this little one is so I can start shopping and decorating.  I am also wondering if this one will have all the eye issues the boys have as we have been up to the doctors twice this last week for their eyes.

Best moment this week?  Getting a surprise ultrasound today and getting to see the baby.  I could see its little legs kicking all around.  The arms moving around.  I even got to see its hand with 5 little fingers so so sweet.  Heartbeat was 153 bpm.

Week 12

****picture to come*****
How far along?  12 wks 0 days

How big is baby? Size of a plum or a lime depending on the website

Physical differences from last week?  Bloatchy skin on chin.  Belly is getting rounder, still chubby looking though to anyone who doesn't know I am pregnant.  I have gained gulp 3 pounds so far.

How I am feeling?  Morning sickness is subsiding.  I still have to eat but not as often.  Food aversions are still here.  Meat and I aren't friends right now.  I am getting more and more of my energy back.  Still really tired in the morning and at night though

What's on my mind?  Excited for the things to come:  feeling the baby move, finding out the gender, picking names, buying new things for the baby.  I am slightly worried about having another baby and if they will inhert the boys nystagmus and what it will mean for it.

Best moment this week?  Weston talking to my tummy to the baby and Cason singing a song he made up.  "A baby, a baby, we are getting a baby" repeated over and over.  Also realizing that morning sickness is subsiding.
