Weekly Wednesday Update 15/40















How far along? 15 weeks
Weight gain/loss: As of my weigh-in last week, I managed to slow my role & only gained 0.2 lbs so that brings our total weight gain to 13.8lbs.
Sleep? Not only am I having a hard time falling asleep, we're back to waking up at least twice to pee in the middle of the night.
Best moment this week? Starting to feel better, until I caught some kind of stomach bug.
Movement: Unless you count gas, none, although it should be starting soon.
Food cravings: Still random, I go from craving nothing but apple slices w/salt (which may sound like a weird pregnancy thing but I have always eaten my apple slices that way) & salads to Five Guys cheeseburgers.
Belly button in or out? In, for awhile I hope. But at the rate this weight gain is going, I have my doubts.
What I miss? Not having acne. I feel like a greasy, fat teenager all over again!
What I am looking forward to? Feeling the baby move, books say it should start around 16 weeks (which is, holy shit, next week). And we just paid the balance for our "babymoon" so only 44 days til St Lucia!
Milestones: Squishy's legs are growing longer than it's arms now, and he/she can move all of her joints and limbs. Although the eyelids are still fused shut, Squishy can sense light (if you shine a flashlight at your tummy, for instance, he/she will likely to move away from the beam). There's not much to taste at this point, but Squishy is forming taste buds.
What I'm nervous about: The time between appointments is terrifying. Every symptom, you can't help but wonder if everything is going alright in there.
