Weekly update!

How far along?: 18 weeks, 3 days

Weight gain/loss:  total loss of 4.7 lbs. not too bad for being almost half way AND the day AFTER Thanksgiving! 

Symptoms:  finally have more non-sick days than sick days! YAY!! Still having alot of cramps

Gender: Team Green but started having a feeling of what the baby might be in the past two weeks

Sleep?: still tired. still crave naps that don't come often enough and having a more difficult time getting comfortable. 

Best moment this week?: busted out my maternity jeans yesterday for Thanksgiving. while they were way too big it was a much nicer feeling than having tight jeans :) 

Movement: not a whole lot. hope thats not a bad sign

Food cravings/aversions: nothing either way :) 

What I miss?: the warm weather. 

What I am looking forward to?: Dr's appointment on Monday

Size of Baby: your baby's the size of a sweet potato!

She's about 5.6 inches long and about 6.7 ounces now and she keeps on growing rapidly. (That's why you're probably feeling so hungry.)

• Can you believe she's yawning, hiccuping, sucking and swallowing?
• And she's twisting, rolling, punching and kicking, too -- and she's big enough that you might be able to feel her doing it!

What I’m nervous about: This baby being nameless forever!

Size of Baby: your baby's the size of a navel orange!

The average fetus at 15 weeks weighs 2.5 ounces and measures 4 inches -- and his proportions are becoming even more normal, since his legs now outmeasure his arms.

• You probably can't feel it yet, but she's squirming a ton!
• She might even be hiccuping in there.
• She's making lots of progress: her joints and limbs can all move now.

What I’m nervous about: Feeling this way until April.

What I miss?: had a rough couple weeks and would love to be able to grab a drink

What I am looking forward to?: hearing everything is ok at my next appointment. 

Size of Baby: your baby's the size of a lemon!

At week 14, your baby is 3.4 inches and 1.5 ounces, he's almost doubled in weight since last week and keeps on growing.

• He's probably sucking his thumb and wiggling his toes in there!
• His kidneys are making urine, and his liver and spleen are doing their jobs, too.
• And he's growing lanugo, a thin, peach-fuzz-like hair, all over his body -- it will help him keep warm!

What I’m nervous about: Getting this house ready to sell
