14 Weeks


How far along? 14 weeks (Picture taken January 26, 2017)

Baby size: Peach, 1.52 oz, 3.42in

Total weight gain/loss: Same as pre-pregnancy weight.

Maternity clothes? Some pants simply because they are comfy!!
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Bedtime is around 7:30-8 or if I'm having a really bad night I put Emersyn in the bed with me around 6:30 and watch a Sesame Street (Daniel referee's basketball 3-5 nights a week so I'm single parenting it many nights).
Best moment this week:  We had our 12 week appointment (I was actually 12 weeks and 6 days).  Baby looked great and heart rate was 153 bpm.  We took Emersyn for the first time, and the ultrasound tech was so sweet to her!  She let her rub the probe on my belly and press the button to take a picture of the baby.  She typed on the picture, "Hey big sis!" and then printed it out for Emersyn to have.  She also let Emersyn press 3 different buttons to find, measure, and hear the heartbeat.  We are so thankful for a great report and healthy baby so far!!

Miss Anything? My life haha!!  Any accomplishments occur before lunch time.  After that, I'm worthlessly sick.  Also miss actually enjoying food.  I eat simply for survival.  I really don't enjoy any foods right now, and the last thing I want to do is talk about food.
Movement: Not yet

Food cravings: I eat the most of cereal, yogurt, non butter popcorn, peanut butter toast, chicken or turkey wraps, fruit, pizza.

Anything making you queasy or sick: I was really enjoying salads, but  now they are giving me extra throat and heart burn.  Anything greasy or with butter, desserts, very flavorful foods, or multiple ingredient foods I do not care for.  I cannot cook because the smell of food bothers me.  I made a turkey one night last week and could not eat one bite because the smell filled my house.  The next day I was able to eat it once the smell was gone.   Brushing teeth is still hard.  Also, it was confirmed at the doctor that I do have a UTI, so I am on an antibiotic for that now.

Have you started to show yet: Not yet
Gender: Boy... I craved very different things with Emersyn and felt better too.

Symptoms: Nausea from noon til bedtime, frequent bathroom trips, sensitive to smells, exhausted (could literally sleep 12 hours each night if were allowed)

Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Looking forward to: I stopped being sick with Emersyn at 14 weeks, so I am hoping and praying that the sickness will diminish soon and that I will regain some of my energy back!!
