15 Weeks!

Baby at 15 weeks

*You probably can't feel it yet, but he/she is squirming a ton!

*He/she might even be hiccuping in there.

*He/she is making lots of progress: her joints and limbs can all move now and the legs are finally longer and more proportional.

So this weekend was the 15 week mark!  I really have nothing new to report except Joey has been sick again, so I've finally convinced him to get some meds and get better.  We both need a month of no pills or sleepless nights.  :-)  We were lazy again since the weather really didn't cooperate with my garden and yard work.  Flurries around and very cold temps for March in Atlanta.  We are over it!

So I took some time this week to go on a fun website and take pictures of Joey and I and morph them into a potential baby photo.  I thought the picture was cute, but Joey did not agree (as usual)!  So, here is our future baby!  LOL  Joey will not like that I posted this. :-) In short, I think it looks nothing like Joey or I, but it was fun to play with.  Note that you couldn't smile in the pictures you use...so hopefully  our kid won't look so depressed.  ha

As I've said, I feel very large for this point in my pregnancy, but after weighing myself this morning, I have barely gained 4 lbs total since December.  So, overall, that is good!  I think average is 5-7 lbs up to this point and my 4 is all in my belly and boobs.  Being short is doing me no favors...not that it usually does.  :-)  There are no stretch marks yet, but my scar on the lower left is as tight as it can get.  I am doing my best to keep it moisturized.  The only real craving to report is sweets.  I always like sweets, but I sort of need a bite of something every single day now.  I am trying to eat mostly fruit with chocolate to keep it partially healthy.  

That's all I have!

15 weeks down and 174 days to go!
