Side note: Week 13 was hectic finishing up my school nursing job and starting my summer Stanford Camp job. I also had on and off barf sessions (oh goody) so didn't have time nor did I feel like writing about it! On to second trimester...
14 weeks
Which trimester are you in?
Officially in 2nd trimester, but not feeling the "increased energy and no nausea" phase yet...
Baby’s size?
According to my app, baby is the size of a lemon, approx 3 inches and 1.5oz.
Have you started to show yet?
Kind of? I still don't feel like I am showing, but clothes are tight around the midsection and I don't like anything restricting. Thank goodness for dresses and maxi skirts!
What are some of your pregnancy symptoms?
"This week I can officially say the nausea has gone away! YAY!!!" That's what she said 2 weeks ago... bummer the nausea came back week 13 & 14... It is nothing like before but I have had a few "oh shit I am going to barf"...and then I actually do barf... and then I feel better and able to eat. I still sip sprite and eat a lot of cheese-its on occasion. The WORST problem I have had consistently is constipation. If you are reading this and you have been pregnant and never experienced pregnancy related constipation...you are SO lucky. I never had issues prior to pregnancy, this is terrible. Tears, sweat, and ... I will spare the men reading this the details. Terrible!
Happy or moody most of the time?
Happy and started to get excited and plan ahead. I am still very moody (sorry Jameson & mom), but the moody outbursts are getting less, I think?
Any cravings?
Berry skittles are SOOOO GOOD! and egg, cheese & toast every morning (unless I just barfed).
Any food aversions?
Coffee, anything mint flavored
Sleep?
I am still super exhausted at night and when I wake up in the mornings. I am still sleeping well. Surprisingly I am napping less - that should be a good sign. Summer is here and I hope I can get as many naps in as possible!
Highlight of the week?
Our first baby gift!!! My co-worker Monica gave Jameson & I the cutest gift! (picture below of the cuteness) It makes it more real having our OWN baby stuff rather than just stacks of stuff I have bought for our nieces and nephews :)
Are you wearing maternity clothes yet?
So what I have learned as a 6'2 woman over the years, is that clothes are hard to come by AND expensive. I still can't seem to wrap my head around paying for $100+ maternity jeans when I will be only wearing them short time and they will be too short (no such thing as affordable (extra) TALL maternity clothes). I have settled on the idea of getting some of my own pants made into maternity pants and using what's called a "belly band" which you can wear over your existing pants for a short while until you get too big. I finally ordered some super cheap old navy maternity tops that I am excited to try. The best part about maternity tops is that they are super long! If only the pants were like that too!
Have any stretch marks?
Not that I have noticed.
Has your belly button popped out?
I still have a very very innie belly button. Jameson is monitoring closely.
Feel any kicks?
Not yet, but I can't WAIT!
Gender prediction:
Not finding out and still no guesses or intuitions!
How has Dad been this week?
He is excited to feel it move when he talks to it!
