14 weeks | Baby August





How far along?: 14w, 1 day 

How big is baby?:   Around 3.5in.  From my weekly email:

  • He's probably sucking his thumb and wiggling his toes in there!
  • His kidneys are making urine, and his liver and spleen are doing their jobs, too.
  • And he's growing lanugo, a thin, peach-fuzz-like hair, all over his body — it will help him keep warm!
And here is a fun look-see at our little babe! 





Weight gain/loss?: +6lbs.  I'm feeling pretty huge this week.  Everywhere.

Stretch marks?:  For some reason, I feel like this is going to be the pregnancy that gives me tiger stripes.

Maternity clothes?: I've worn two pairs of maternity pants this week.  They are still a little too big, but I'm just too far 
beyond fitting my regular clothes.  Even my bras are done.

Sleep?:  I had trouble this week falling back asleep after getting up to pee around 3am.  I'm tired!  I'm also really looking forward to the purchase of a new mattress.  The AuPair that will be joining our family in June will be getting out bed, and we are getting a KING!!


Food cravings?: I had a day this week where I couldn't get enough things vinegar-y.  I finally understood why so many pregnant women want pickles.  

Gender?:  We are still thinking about waiting until the birth.  I'm just so nervous about all of the ultrasounds I have to get.


Movement?: Other than seeing little peanut wiggling around on my ultrasound on Monday, I haven't felt anything this week.  I'm struggling to not break out the dopplar just to ease my mind.


Belly button?: Still an inny.

Symptoms?:  Just fatigue...and some impatience. ;)


What are you looking forward to this week?:  We had a wonderful fancy Valentine's Day dinner last night and we celebrated Andrew's 31st birthday today.  I'm looking forward to Andrew being home tomorrow.  :)
