How far along are you? 14 weeks
-
How I’m feeling: Energyyyyy!! It is back!!
Total weight gain: 5lbs
How big is baby? Sweet little lemon
Maternity clothes: Normal clothes – just secretly unbuttoning my pants by the end of the day.
Sleep: Hasn’t changed much – still going to the bathroom 2-3 times in the night.
Best moment this week Hearing my little sweet pea’s heartbeat!!! It was such an incredible moment that I was in too much shock to cry or do anything. I videotaped it for my family and husband since I had to go to the doctors alone. The heartbeat was strong and the appointment went well!
Movement: I didn’t feel it, but the doctor had trouble getting sweet pea’s heartbeat b/c he/she kept moving around!
Food cravings: Still on a watermelon kick. I keep thinking about cheeseburgers and I can’t eat red meat.
Food aversions: Chicken – even eating it cooked makes me yak.
Labor signs: Just feeling some cramping here or there…very mild.
Belly button in or out: Still the same ole innie.
What I miss: My small boobs.
What I’m looking forward to: The gender and a new doctor in GA!Randoms: Why do I have acne everywhere?! And they are just red bumps that you can’t do anything about. I’ve tried all sorts of medicines and nothing works. Very unattractive!
Eh, I had stupid acne too randomly. It would come and go in stages of the pregnancy. Cute little lemon!
There is a Korean wives-tale that goes…if you’re craving meat you’ll have a boy, if you’re craving fruit you’ll have a girl! 🙂 So my vote is on the girl. 😉 We’ll see if they’re right or not!

Aww, I love your baby bump posts. I and a little over 21 weeks now, and totally feel you about the acne thing. I got those little red bumps on my face. In fact my acne got pretty bad before it got better, but I ‘ve started using a new scrub/mask on my face and it has seemed to help it. All I did was took some honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar in a bowl and mixed it together. I wet my face with warm water and then applied it, and gently scrubbed it in before leaving it on my face for 15 to twenty minutes. Then I’d wash it off and use my regular cleanser. Might not be something you want to try, but just in case you get desperate like I did lol. Congrats again on your little one! Hearing the heartbeat was and still is my favorite part (other than the ultrasound where I actually got to see her)
That Korean wives-tale may be right! With both of my pregnancies I craved meat (not good for being a vegetarian) and you know what I had both times! 😉
With my daughter I craved watermelon and hamburger 🙂 I vote girl.

omg!! I was just googling how to get rid of these bumps… I’m getting a few pimples and they are leaving marks!! I don’t know why and all derms won’t take me until August.. um, I’ll be 7 months pregnant then!
On a happier note, did you do the NT ultrasound test? I thought it was so amazing to see the baby actually move around.. it really was a special moment and I think you’d love it!
hearing the heartbeat i bet was so amazing!! I got to hear my baby niece’s heart beat in person it was so amazing.
