As of Monday, July 16, 2012 I am 15 weeks pregnant.
Size of Baby: according to my BabyBump app. baby is the size of a naval orange (4.0 in) and weighs 2.5 oz.
What I'm missing: stuffing my face with food. I have to pace myself or I'll eat too much and be sick. It helps if I do something while eating like feed Kayla or play on computer like I am now as I eat pizza. =) I also miss sweet things like pancakes, cookies, ice cream, etc. Those make my stomach so upset, I try to avoid them. I miss superdeduper hot baths or hot tubs. I love me some hot baths! I guess I wouldn't enjoy a hot tub this time of year but I feel like it's been forever since I've been in one.
Movements: haven't felt any baby movement yet.
Energy Level: Still pretty low but getting better. I haven't ventured out of the house much. I like having food and the couch nearby! If Thomas is with us it's easier. The evenings are harder so I try to get as much done during the day as possible. When Thomas comes home it's a huge relief! I hope the 2nd trimester energy kicks in and we can go to the splash pad, the zoo, Target! etc.
Maternity Clothes: I haven't wore any quite yet, but I'm sure it's just around the corner! I'm at home most days so stretchy cotton yoga pants are what I mostly wear. When I do step into the closet to find clothes to wear out I complain that I have nothing to wear, ha! Mostly for my bottom half though. Jeans are too hot and I need more dresses or skirts.
Dr. Appointments: My last appointment was on June 27 (Miss Kayla's Birthday) I got to hear the heart beat for the first time. I think it was 167....maybe, something in the 160's. I cherish those times when I get confirmation that there is indeed a little person growing inside me. I tend to get distracted by all my nausea and throw pity parties for myself and almost forget why I'm feeling ill! Because a wonderful little baby! Next appointment will probably be another heartbeat check. Then I believe the one after that will be the gender determination.
