I’m 15 weeks today and it looks like we finally have an actual baby bump! The baby is the size of an apple or orange, is about 4 inches, and weighs around 2 ounces.
I don’t have a whole lot to report this week. I’m feeling okay but some days are much better than others. I’m mostly tired. Yesterday while at work, I seemed to be coming down with a cold (lots of sneezing and a runny nose) which also gave me a migraine. I went to bed early but STILL woke up today with the migraine. The cold symptoms are gone though, so that’s good! I am feeling REALLY thirsty lately too and I have terrible “pregnancy brain.” I always forget whether or not I’ve taken my prenatal vitamin!
Baby got his/her first outfits ever. My mom bought two yellow (AKA gender neutral) pajamas last week at Once Upon a Child while shopping for clothes for my nephew. The one has ducks on the feet, and the other is a sleep sack thing. They’ve been washed and are now hanging on itty bitty baby hangers in the nursery!
Not a whole lot of other news right now. Our next appointment is our 18 week one which won’t be for another 3 weeks. Then, we’ll finally find out the gender at our 20 week scan which we are extremely anxious for.
The baby’s bedroom should be getting carpeted this weekend, then we can start setting up in there a bit. I know it’s early, but we have giant boxes taking over my downstairs living room (crib, mattress, dresser/changing table), so it will be nice to get them set up and in the proper room!
Jerry and I had to switch our sides of the bed the other day too. His side (now MY side) is closer to the door and therefore easier to get to the bathroom so HAHA. On that note, my sleep is okay but really not great because of the frequent urination.
My grandparents are coming in from Florida this week so we’re really looking forward to that. Too bad we don’t have an ultrasound scheduled while they’re here because it would have been fun for them to see the baby.
