Last week was probably the hardest week I've had this pregnancy. I got really sick on Wednesday and my fever got up to 101.5, and my whole body ached and I was miserable. I took some Tylenol to bring my fever down and it went down within a few hours - praise the Lord! I feel better now but am still congested and dealing with allergies. But all good! :)
Size of Baby: According to What to Expect, our baby is the size of an orange! Around 4.5 inches and 2-3 ounces.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: We don't have a scale at home, but at my last appointment I was up 4lbs.
Maternity Clothes: In the very near future! I cannot button most of my pants but shirts are fine. A teeny tiny bump is starting to show :)
Gender: I go back and forth each week. Sometimes I think girl, sometimes I think boy. We got a doppler to hear the baby's heartbeat at home, and yesterday it was 150. We shall see! We find out the gender on April 21st! 3 weeks!
Belly Button In/Out: In
Stretch Marks: Not yet
Labor Signs: No
Movement: Not really sure what I'm looking for. I figure I'll know when it happens!
Sleep: I was sick last week and sleep was horrible for a few days. I'm feeling better now but just have allergies.
What I miss: Nothing! :)
What I am looking forward to: April 21st!!! That is our 18 week anatomy scan and we find out the gender!
Cravings/Aversions: Pizza, apples, water.
Symptoms: Bloated, heartburn, gassy, headaches.
Best Moment This Week: Hearing the baby's heartbeat at home! It was so sweet!
