Since we have so many out-of-town family and friends, I'll try to blog about our experiences as much as I can. Here it goes...
How
far along? 14 weeks
How big is baby? The size of a lemon!
Total weight gain/loss: As of my last appointment about 4 weeks ago, I had gained 3 pounds.
Maternity clothes? Nope...all my "normal" clothes still fit...just sad that some of my "skinny" dresses and pants are getting a little tight! Trying to wear those outfits as much as I can while I still can!
Sleep: Wow...being exhausted is an understatement! I could probably sleep anywhere, at any time. Some days are better than others. I felt like I was getting my groove back this weekend...but then I crashed on the couch last night around 8:30, so I guess I'm not totally over the exhaustion yet!
Best moment this week: We "officially" announced that we were expecting last Friday on Facebook (because nothing is official until it's on Facebook, right? Ha!) So I guess my best moment was reading all of the sweet comments from friends and family.
Movement: Not yet...but that is going to be WILD when it happens! I can't imagine!
Food cravings: I'm pretty much hungry 24/7. I can't stand it! Lately I crave carbs (bread, pasta, anything really!), anything crunchy (chips, crackers, cereal)...all very healthy stuff! We went to Loveless Cafe a few weekends ago and I ordered a waffle with bacon and a side of mac n' cheese....someone stop me! Or maybe I should enjoy this time to actually indulge every once in awhile (which I never used to do!)
Food Aversions: None really...a few things (like yogurt and grapes...two of my favorites!) did at the beginning, but I'm getting over that (thank God!)
Gender: Still up in the air! My next doctor's appointment is next Tuesday, so I'm sure he'll schedule my ultrasound...and hopefully I can talk him into doing it earlier than 20 weeks! :)
Labor Signs: Lord no!
Pregnancy Symptoms: Hungry all the time, emotional wreck some days (have had multiple emotional breakdowns for no real reason)...cried while watching the movie Knocked Up and at one of the new P&G commercials where at the end it says "The hardest job...is the best job."
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Energy! Having a flat stomach!
What I am looking forward to: Finding out the sex!!!!! I don't even want to start looking into nursery stuff, names, etc. until we know for sure!
Upcoming appointments/events: Next OB appointment is on Tuesday.
Weekly Wisdom: Enjoy sleeping while you can....at least that's what everyone tells me! :)
Milestones: Officially announced our news to the world!
