Week 14: Lemon

Blurry, but I was sweating so I was in a hurry.

How big is baby: Baby is the size of a lemon this week (3.4 in and 1.5 oz).  Almost double in size from last week!  Crazy fast growing.    

Weight gain/loss:  +3 lb based on my OB visit yesterday.  

Stretch marks: No.

Sleep:  Still no complaints!

Diet/Cravings/Aversions:  New craving, peanut butter and jelly toasted english muffin.  Seriously, I can't get enough.  If only I had mom's homemade jelly to go with it....   

Exercise:  Walking and DVDs.

Gender: We'll find out in October!

Movement: I'm sure it's totally in my head.  But the other night I was laying and reading in bed and felt the weirdest bubble sensation.  I know what you're thinking...it felt different from gas.  But I'm not sure if it was really the baby or just something else.  I know it's still really early.

The belly:  Starting to be the same size all the time.  My neighbor thinks it's a little obvious.  I still think I just look a little chunky :)   

What I'm spazzing about:  A little spotting again.  I e-mailed a fellow blogger today and she mentioned that she spotted/bled her first two trimesters with her first daughter.  She's now 2 years old and healthy as can be.  So I guess it just happens to some people.  It was nice to hear from her and hear that it can turn out ok.  

What I'm loving:  Happy 2nd trimester!  And being able to share with everyone now.  The excitement and love from friends and family has just been amazing :)

Symptoms:  Tired, sick at the end of the day.  Round ligament pain.  Serious gagging now.  I almost threw up putting dishes in the dishwasher, smelling the trash, and taking my prenatals (they smell really weird).

What I'm looking forward to:  Completely not baby related, but I just booked my flight to go visit my BFF Memorial Day weekend!  I am so so so excited.  I haven't seen her since Christmas which is just way too long for us :)    

Best moment of the week:  My 14 week appointment and hearing the precious heartbeat.  My uterus is measuring right on track according to the doctor and she loves that I have a little belly on me.  Our anatomy scan is scheduled for June 6 and can't wait to see the baby and as big as she'll be!
