14 Weeks

How far along? 14 weeks

Due date? October 15, 2013

Weight loss/gain? Up about 3 lbs.

Exercise? Well, it’s back to no running again since the new doctor isn’t a fan either. Oh well! The weather has been beautiful outside so I’ve been getting out for lots of walks, and I started the 2nd trimester videos on my DVD. Much harder than the first! I guess they figure you should be done being sick and have your energy back by now.

Maternity clothes? Still no, but I’m thankful that I’ve held on to several pairs of pants that were too big last Spring/Summer because they’re more comfortable now.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep? Sleeping good other than multiple trips to el baño during the night. Although this week, I had a major fall out of bed. I was dreaming that I was on the other side of the bed, so when I went to swing my legs out of the bed on that side, Luke was there. Instead of realizing that I was on my side of the bed and getting out normally, I thought I had to scoot over to the other side of the bed. I scooted right into the air and landed with a hard thump. Luckily, no one was hurt.

Best moment this week? Talking and dreaming about baby!

Miss anything? We went to watch some friends sing at an Open Mic night on Thursday at an Irish pub. All the Franziskaner (wheat beer) looked really good.

Movement? Little baby was a dancing machine on the last sonogram we saw, but I can’t feel anything yet. Still a few weeks away from what I’ve read.

Food cravings? With the heat this week, ice cream has been looking really good, but I cured the craving with frozen Greek yogurt one night after dinner. When I stopped in a McDonald’s to use the restroom yesterday, it smelled surprisingly good, but luckily I resisted.

Anything make you queasy or sick? Not this week. I’ve been feeling pretty good and normal.

Other symptoms? I’ve still had a couple of super tired, can’t keep my eyes open days, but far less than in the first trimester.

Have you started to show yet? I’ve been analyzing a tummy pic we took when we first found out versus one from this week, and I think there’s a slight difference. Luke says maybe, but still no one else would guess that I was pregnant.

Gender prediction? This week (and last) I had a dream that we had a little girl. Last night, she had a head full of dark hair. I don’t care about the gender, but I want some hair!

Happy or moody? Happy, happy. It’s amazing how much difference the weather can make. Spring has finally arrived!

Looking forward to? Having a bump! This awkward chubby phase is getting old and hard to dress!
