15 weeks

How far along?  15 weeks 4 days

Baby is the size of a:  Avocado (yuck, I strongly dislike looking at these right now) or beefsteak tomato.

Total weight gain: I think from my last look, I'm back up 3 pounds.

Sleep: good most nights, just still waking up frequently to use the potty

Best moment this week: Getting to spend Saturday with Richard, it was one of our last Saturdays to be together all day before Camp kicks off.

Development this week: Baby is breathing amniotic fluid through its nose and respiratory tract, giving those lungs some practice.  Can also sense light and pressure from the outside.

Miss Anything: Cokes and Dr. Peppers, but I'm starting to like root beer much more 

Movement: I think I felt some movement Saturday morning, but I'm not positive.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not as much, still don't like avocados so much... 

Symptoms: Tired in the evenings still, and get queasy if I don't eat whenever I'm hungry. 

Food Cravings: Still not extremely keen on the sweets.  I do like salty/sour things right now.  (Old wives tales say that means boy...only time will tell) 

Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm in a pretty good mood most of the time, but if someone annoys me I can get off on a rant pretty quickly.

Looking forward to: Going to my doctors appointment on Wednesday, and getting to hear the heartbeat.  We heard it a little at my last appointment but the baby was moving so much it didn't last for very long. 

14 weeks

How far along?  14 weeks

Baby is the size of a:  Average clenched fist or navel orange

Total weight gain: Still down around 5 pounds

Sleep: Much better after Richard bought me a snoogle pillow for my "Mother's (to-be) Day"

Best moment this week: Getting to see all my sisters and hang out for a short time

Development thus week: Baby is starting to "straighten out" and growing the lanugo (body hair to keep baby warm). Baby is also starting to make facial features like squinting and possibly sucking its thumb. 

Miss Anything: Dr. Pepper and Coke. I'm trying so hard to stay away from caffeine. 

Movement: Haven't felt anything noticeable yet

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not much anymore. I'm definitely feeling better most of the time. 

Symptoms: Still a little tired in the evenings and some headaches but doing pretty good right now. 

Food Cravings: A Salty Frog sno-cone. But there isn't a sno-cone stand close by so instead I'm eating limon chips. 

Happy or Moody most of the time: I feel happy most of the time. Haven't been overly emotional or irrational yet. 

Looking forward to: Relaxing this weekend as it will be the last weekend Richard and I can relax together at home before Camp gets truly underway.
