This week also marks a very important day in our world - Morgan's birthday! My little bug is 5 today, time really flies. She had a great birthday weekend and will get to see her uncle this week as well, so that's been a lot of fun.
This Friday I'm heading out with some friends and my brother to a pub for some drinks, and I always feel weird doing that when I'm pregnant, even though I don't drink anymore anyway. When I'm not pregnant, no one can assume anything really, it doesn't matter if I'm drinking or not, but when I'm pregnant, I feel like people instantly think I'm being irresponsible. Weird, right?
I don't know where we are going but if they do have some nice mocktails, I may try one, otherwise I will probably stick to ginger ale. How boring!
I've settled down on my Amazon obsession but I'm still very aware of the fact that we aren't having a baby shower this time, so I need a few things to be really prepared. I've been contemplating just getting a few things off of the Facebook marketplace to make sure I have the basics. We will do a baby meet n' greet sometime in June, but that's several months after I'll have the baby.
I'd be lying if I said that didn't make me nervous!
How far along?: 15 weeks
Due Date: March 24, 2020
Baby is the size of a(n): pear (or Homer Simpson's donut!)
Total weight gain/loss: I am holding steady at my pre-pregnancy weight
The Bump: Not too much growth this week, but I definitely feel it more in my lower tummy. No more buttons on my pants! They're too restrictive. I'm going to need to get some maternity pants ASAP.
Symptoms/How I'm feeling: Incredibly tired, and sick again. But no major pregnancy related symptoms, besides the usual.
Food Cravings/Aversions: No cravings, but I've been drinking a lot of juice to get that vitamin C in me.
Sleep: Better; only once or twice a night to pee. Could be better if it weren't for this cold.
Weddings Rings On or Off: On. No major swelling yet, so we'll see. I will likely have to take them off in the next few weeks.
Exercise: None, I've been too sick. I did do some yoga but not much.
Any Names Picked Out Yet: Yes. Not telling.
Gender: Unknown. It's not real to me until I know. I should find out early November.
Movement: Yes, every once in a while. Still pretty early so I'm not overly concerned.
Maternity Clothes: Pants, and I need more. It snowed here so now I need a coat that I can do up!
Labor Signs: None - too soon.
What I miss: Feeling attractive! I know it's silly but I feel like a whale, and I have so much more to go!
Best Moment of the Week: Morgan's birthday shenanigans.
What I’m excited about/looking forward to: sleeping. Really, every day, I look forward to bedtime.
