Week 14

Here I am at week 14. I'm going to try and take a picture each week in the same shirt so that you can get the full effect of my growing belly. I'm taking my picture early in the morning before I eat :)

I go to the doctor next week and I'm so excited! We will get to hear the heartbeat finally. It feels so long since my last appointment and besides feeling bloated I don’t really feel pregnant especially now that my morning sickness has passed. Not that I'm complaining....

So I sort of stole the list of questions below from my friends baby blog. I think its really great so I'm going to try and fill this out each week too. (Thanks Abby! :)

How far along: 14 weeks

Baby Size: Baby Riva is the Size of a lemon!

 

Names: Unsure as of yet. We have a few we are considering but nothing stands out as a for sure.

Total weight gain/loss: 1-2 lbs. I will know for sure next Friday.

Maternity clothes: Not yet but I got a great pair of jeans and an adorable dress on ASOS maternity that I'm looking forward to wearing.

Stretch marks: Nope. Just using lots of cocoa butter every night

Sleep: So far so good. Still sleeping on my stomach too. I also went ahead and got the Snoogle body pillow. I'm sure I will be using it quite a bit soon. As of right now, my dog Coby tries to steal it from me.

Best moment this week: I'm actually starting to get some energy back. I went to the gym and ran for the first time in what felt like forever.

Miss Anything: Nothing yet. We are big wine drinkers and I thought I might miss it but honestly I can hardly stand the smell of it.

Movement: None yet

Food cravings: When I was dealing with morning sickness, for some reason I wanted bread, French fries and occasionally mini chocolate donuts. I have no clue how but I lost weight up until this week. Now I can't stand the thought of any of that food. I finally want fruit and veggies again (for now..) Yay!

Anything making you queasy or sick: The smell of French fries, red wine or beer (Andy isn't allowed to drink around me), fish and Andy until he puts on deodorant. Sorry babe.

Have you started to show yet: Just barely. My jeans still fit pretty well.

Gender: Not sure yet and I don’t really have a clue. Most of the family thinks it’s a girl but I think that’s just because they want me to have one.

Labor signs: None

Belly button in or out: In but I can see in it much better. haha

Wedding rings on or off: On

Mood: Great! ok well I'm up and down.

Looking forward to: Feeling the baby move and just enjoying the holidays with family.

Other: So far we havent really bought anything for the baby yet except for a jogging stroller. We got it on Black Friday. I will post a pic of it later. I'm so excited about it!
