Week 15 #Bumpdate (almost 4 months and no weight gain yet...)

How far along? 15 weeks

Baby is the size of an apple, 4 inches and 2.5 oz (the apple of my eye!)

Total weight gain/measurements: no weight gain yet. I am still weighting 114.4lbs (which is supposed to be 'healthy' for my tiny height). I think 'Baby J' is absorbing all those extra pounds I packed in the last year. I am pretty sure baby is okay; so maybe this means that it will be easier to lose the baby weight after he/she is born.

Maternity clothes: None yet, but maybe in a couple weeks I'll get some basic pieces so I can mix and match them with no fuss.

Stretch marks? Not yet! I have been using vitamin E oil and Palmer's Cocoa Butter  Spray Lotion.

Sleep: Its been okay. I just feel like I moved a lot during the night because I can feel pressure in my abdomen.

Best moment this week:  Realizing I am one week away of being four months. This jelly bean is growing so fast.

Miss anything? I miss somebody: my brother and London -my cat-... How I wish I could spend some time with them.

Movement: I think I felt him last saturday. I know that soon his movements will be more noticeable.

Food cravings: wine, burgers and green salads. 

Anything making you queasy or sick? the smell of any 'Axe' deodorant, eww...

Gender: We will know on April 7th. My next appointment will be next week, so I hope they give me a little hint. My guts keep telling me it's a boy. It's hard to explain, I'd love a mini me as well, but I kinda 'sense' -mere intuition based- that my little tummy inhabitant is a mini version of my hubby. We'll see if I am wrong or right.

Symptoms: I get dizzy and light headed, specially after walking around Walmart or Lowes for an hour. Sometimes I need to crouch and deeply breath... and heck no, I'm not embarrassed to do so in front of other people.

Belly button in or out? In. I do not think it will ever be out.

Wedding rings on or off? On, my fingers are still the same.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy and emotional. I saw a photo of my cat and started crying because I missed smelling him and kissing his head... haha

My husband gave me this card months ago. It mades me feel better whenever hormones strike.

Looking forward to: Next week so I can see Baby J and making sure he's growing and healthy.

NOT Looking forward to: Summer. I think I'll die -not really-. Just picture myself with 20lbs in my belly in a 95F weather (screaming, desperately)

My skin looks better now. Had a little bit of acne but it seems to be gone (for now...)

 This is the teddy bear they gave me when I was born. I am planning to get baby J his own teddy bear too.

And that's all for now, folks. Sorry for the massive amount of photos but I can't stop thinking how this is a moment can not be reproduced.

xx, 

Raque.
