Baby size: 4 inches, 2.5 ounces, about the size of a naval orange. The baby's legs are now longer than the arms and all 4 limbs have functional joints!
How far along: 15 Weeks.
Total weight gain: Starting weight: 131.5, Weight gain to date: I'm still at 137.5 this week, so 6 pounds.
Sleep: Sleep is not so great right now. I have a pregnancy pillow, The Snoogle, but I have so much heartburn at night and the only comfortable position for me to sleep in is the one I'm not supposed to sleep in...on my back =(
Maternity Clothes: Still not really needing maternity pants, but they are definitely more comfortable on those bloated days.
Food cravings : None this week. I've actually done better with eating this week. I went to the produce market and got a whole bunch of healthy food for me and the baby.
Food aversions: Still not eating marinara sauce.
Symptoms: Still lot's of heartburn, but less nausea. Also, my nose has been really stuffed up.
Exercise: I got my prenatal workout DVDs this week and started those. I like the workout because it feels like I'm working, but it's not as hard as what I would usually do. So it's not sucking all of my energy away like the other workouts I was attempting to do.
Movement: Still nothing yet =( I keep waiting to feel the flutters, but I still can't yet.
Belly Button: Still normal.
Gender: Stay tuned for January 16! Only 5 more weeks!
What I’m looking forward to: My next appt, Dec 27, where we'll get to hear the heartbeat again!
What I miss: Fitting into my shirts! I need shirts that are a good 6 inches longer than normal.
