Hump Day Bump Day | 15 weeks




How far along?: 15w 2days

How big is baby?: Baby's now the size of a navel orange!
Continuing the march toward normal proportions, baby's legs now out-measure his arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably can't feel the movements just yet. 



Weight gain/loss?: I went ahead and weighed myself on the scale at the gym this morning.  +5lbs. 


Stretch marks?:  still none.


Maternity clothes?: I'm going to have to make the transition soon.  I can't believe it's a week later and I still haven't bought my bella band!


Sleep?: I've had bits of insomnia.  When I get up in the middle of the night to pee, I often have trouble falling back asleep.


Food cravings?: The other day I really wanted a shredded chicken burrito, but after I found and ate one, I felt really sick.  I really wanted sushi for lunch the other day and practically told my friend I was meeting for lunch that we had to have that.  I felt terrible once she made her pregnancy announcement to me!  I know I couldn't look at fish during the first tri.

Gender?: I really have no clue.  It changes by the day.  11/15 won't get here soon enough.

Movement?: I actually felt the baby for close to an hour last Wednesday night and other than a slight movement when I use the doppler, nothing consistent.

Belly button?: no change. 

Symptoms?:  Virtually none.  I'm tired, but I'm pretty sure that's just a function of my work load right now.

What are you looking forward to this week?:  Andrew's mom flies in from Texas tomorrow.    I have a 7 - SEVEN - session from today through Sunday, so it will be great to have some help.  Annnd, Andrew and I are going on a date either Friday or Saturday night!!!
