15 Weeks

How far along? 15 weeks

Baby size: Pear, 2.47 oz, 3.98 in

Total weight gain/loss: As of my appointment last week, I am still at my pre-pregnancy weight.  I only weigh at the doctor's office :)

Maternity clothes? I have been wearing a pair of black gym pants, a pair of jeans, and a pair of black jeans that are all maternity.  Otherwise I'm in gym pants or leggings.  I haven't wore any maternity shirts except for a few t-shirts around the house just to be comfy.
Stretch marks? Nope, but I rub cream on my belly after bath/shower each day for prevention.

Sleep: Bedtime between 7:30-8.  Still loving my sleep and very exhausted.  The energy HAS NOT kicked back in as many of my pregnancy apps say will happen in the 2nd trimester.
Best moment this week:  Previously I have been sick from noon til bedtime every day for 8 LONG weeks.  I am still sick most days, but it is starting later around 4pm.  Praying all sickness will be gone soon.  We also had our first night out in a WHILE last Saturday!!  I was craving Red Lobster's cheese biscuits, so Emersyn, Daniel, and I ran a few errands at a slow pace and then had dinner at Red Lobster.  It was so good to get out of the house!! 
Miss Anything? Being able to take Emersyn places during the week to have interaction with other children, my brain and memory, and my speed... I am VERY SLOW right now.
Movement: Not yet

Food cravings: Cereal (Honey Combs, Smacks, Special K Cinnamon Pecan, Life), yogurt and granola especially the key lime flavor, pizza, cheese on wheat thin crackers, peanut butter toast, and I have really enjoyed the Mexican restaurant the past few weeks (chips, salsa, and soft beef taco).

Anything making you queasy or sick: I have no desire to see raw meat, much less to cook it.  Needless to say, there have been a lot of sandwiches, cereal, and take out for our dinners.  Salads are still bothering me as well as desserts. 

Have you started to show yet: I think so, but no one has really commented.

Gender: Still feeling boy

Symptoms: Nausea most days but later in the afternoon, exhausted, feel light headed if I bend down and up too fast, gag when brushing teeth

Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Looking forward to: Enjoying meals!!  I can remember with Emersyn, when I hit the 2nd trimester, food became awesome.  I still don't love food and really eat so I don't get even more sick.  I'm ready to get to the point in pregnancy where food is GOOD!!

 

 Had to snap a few pictures of my sweet Valentine!!

 We FINALLY made it back to library!!  Emersyn LOVES it so much, it was a joy to see her dance to the songs and have fun during story time, and then of course there was playground time!
