Bump Day -- 15 Weeks




How far along? 15 weeks!

Total weight gain/loss: Down a pound. Total loss 5 pounds.

Maternity Clothes? Just the jeans for now. Though Old Navy is having a killer sale and I currently have about 15 items in my cart. Haha. It's all spring and summer stuff, so I'm hesitant to order now, but 40% off, can I really pass that up!?
Stretch marks? Nada

Sleep: Some days I'm noticing more energy, others I'm ready to crash by 7. This week has be BUSY so I chalk it up to that.

Best moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat on the doppler for the first time. That little thump thump will melt your heart every time.
Movement: Little flutters here and there. It's not everyday yet and no pokes or prods, but I love it!
Food cravings: Hot dogs, ranch dressing and potato chips. I've had hot dogs for dinner twice in the past week...and not the healthy turkey variety either. The fatty, delicious, stadium style dogs. Yum. And I switched to the lower fat kettle chips, but now I'm drowning them in ranch dressing, so I think they've cancelled each other out. Oh well. I'm still down 5 pounds.
Gender: Still holding out for boy....but I saw some adorable little tutus that helped me come to terms with the possibility of Team Pink. Either way, I will love it to pieces.
Labor Signs: Nope, but I think I felt one of those round ligament pains my doc warned me about. Ouch!
Belly Button in or out? In. And unless this baby moves outta my crotch it's no where near endangerment of popping out!
What I miss: Nothing really. We even had our huge portfolio wine tasting ALL day Tuesday and everyone kept asking if I was bummed I couldn't drink. Surprisingly...no.

What I'm looking forward to: Still waiting for that noticeable baby bump...that shows up in more than just my yoga pants.

Weekly Wisdom: Do not be fooled by the drawstring waist of scrub pants. When your belly starts to bulge they will automatically fall down making you resemble a ghetto thug or a plumber. Just remember folks, crack kills.

Milestones: Scheduling our BIG ultrasound for March 22! Let the countdown begin to finding out what kind of equipment this baby is packin'!

Stephanie said...

Oh hearing that heartbeat....sigh. Yeah you. Glad your energy is starting to return:)

Brittany said...

I love potato chips, so I definitely don't doubt you that they're good with ranch dressing. I just would have never thought of it!! :) Kind of like french fries and ranch. How come all the good tasting stuff is so bad for you..?!

The little bump is slowly growing. That sounds like a heck of a sale at Old Navy. I love reading about all of the cravings that you preggers ladies are having. Ranch and chips sounds good. 3/22 is right around the corner. I bet you can’t wait to find out!

P.S. Totally random, but your closet in the background of your pic looks huge. I’m jealous ;)
