So the commissary had some weird-looking lemons this week… so baby is the size of a lemon, minus that protrusion: 3.4 inches long. Definitely feeling like my belly is showing more, but I still feel like people look at me and think “fat” not “pregnant” at this point.How far along: 14 weeks
Gender: I don’t know… but I had two people at work predict boy this week.
Weight gain: Still about the same.
Symptoms: Back pain, nausea, occasional headaches, and I still threw up one night. 😦

Maternity clothes: Not really… I experimented with some options this week. One day I tried the Belly Button band, then I tried some maternity jeans, and then I tried the hairband thing on my jeans. I’m just having issues with not having a waist right now! I’m constantly hiking my jeans back up, but it’s probably unavoidable with my job.
Stretch marks: No
Belly button in or out: in
Sleep: Totally fine..except for my middle-of-the-night potty trips. And I’ve been waking up before my alarm goes off. I’m blaming that more on the sun rising earlier than on pregnancy though.
Best moment this week: Getting to have an actual conversation with Andrew! He wanted updates on how my belly inhabitant is doing. 🙂
Miss anything: The energy to cook dinner. My menu-planning has been seriously lacking.
Movement: not yet
Cravings: Chips & salsa… I actually had it for dinner that night. Blue Gatorade & Dr Pepper too, although I’m really trying not to have too much soda.
Looking forward to: Feeling the baby moving

My belly is just pooching out more. It just doesn’t look like a pregnant belly yet, I don’t think. I miss all of you too! I wish I was closer to all of you! 😦

I’m very eager to feel the baby moving! Even though Andrew won’t be able to feel the early movements, he’s hoping it doesn’t start until he gets home. 🙂 Hopefully our two babies will be able to meet at some point, Vickie!

I’ll try the band again this week and see how it goes. It might depend on the pair of jeans too. I’ll do another belly photo next weekend. 🙂 Love you! ❤
