15 Weeks


How far along: 15 Weeks!
Baby size: 4.5 inches long, 2-3 oz (about the size of a navel orange)
Weight gain: Definitely getting back to where I started. 
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but I definitely lounge around in pj's when I a just at home.
Stretch marks: No but my stomach was "out of control" this week. It was really dry so lotion at night has really helped.
Sleep: Some nights are better. I wake up to change positions and my dang cough is trouble but it is a small victory when I get a full night of sleep!
Gender: Sometimes I really think it will be a boy.
Best moment this week: Getting one week closer to meeting this little guy or gal! Also I got really excited about the nursery so I spent a lot of time looking at pinterest for ideas and inspiration. We also went to Babies R Us to look around which was lots of fun. And we made our first baby purchase (Tommy Tippee Bottles).
Looking forward to: The next doctors appointment and scheduling our gender ultrasound. I really can hardly wait!
What I miss: Not having a cough and being able to breath. I really miss it. Not sure if it is pregnancy related though.
Movement: Not yet but I still can feel myself pop out when I lay down.
Food cravings: Nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe fruit snacks, yum!
Aversions: I probably need to try veggies again, I have been a little afraid since the first tri. Also popcorn sounds gross since last time I tried it I had rubber tasting burps.
Nursery: Lots of ideas. I have spent a lot of time looking for inspiration in this category this week. I found a crib I like and have kind of been looking at color combinations. I can't wait to find out if it is a boy or a girl because then I can make some decisions. 
Miscellaneous: We continued to spread the news this week. It is nice to talk about it or just let people know. Spring in Pittsburgh is starting to make an appearance and I am excited about that. Hopefully that means walks in the park with my husband and a little more fresh air and exercise for me and this little one.
