14 Weeks!

How Far Along: 14 weeks

Size of baby: Baby #3 about 3.5 inches long (weighs about 3 ounces)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 1 pound

Maternity Clothes: Fixing to be moving into the the maternity pants, I'm over the belly band :)

Gender: Well it's EXTREMELY early, but we found out yesterday (at a 14 week ultrasound) that we are having another baby BOY!!! Heart Rate was 150. Of course, we will confirm at the 20 week ultrasound just to be sure :)

Movement: None yet, but it sure was wiggling all around in the ultrasound :) I felt movement with Caleb at 15 weeks and Macie at 17 weeks, so I'm hoping it won't be long now!

Food Cravings: SALTY! SALTY! SALTY! Although, I do love a green Granny Smith apple every day too! Proteins are also on the list. I am LOVING chicken salad right now!!! I still have NO desire for anything sweet AT ALL!!!

What I miss: Getting a full nights sleep with no wake ups and (selfishly) my figure...but I know it's ALL worth it!!! :)

Sleep: Depends on the night. I usually can fall asleep easy, but if I wake up, I have a really hard time going back to sleep. I usually have about 3 potty breaks each night :) I've found if I nap during the day my nights are worse, but if I don't, I usually sleep better....so I'm torn (enjoy a nap during the day or sleep well at night!!)

Symptoms: Lots of trips to the potty, TERRIBLE indigestion, I'm still really tired in the afternoons/evenings and have occasional nausea, but the "sick/green" stage is definitely getting MUCH better. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! :)

Best Moment this week:
Finding out our sweet baby is a BOY!!! :)

What I am looking forward to: Feeling the baby move! I'm sure it will be in the next few weeks!!
