Week 16

In 2 weeks time, we'll go for an ultrasound and hopefully we'll be able to see the baby's gender! That's gonna be so exciting! I haven't put on any weight yet, which is good. Overall, I've been feeling much better, have more energy in the day and food don't turn me off as they did the last few weeks.

I'm not fitting into my normal clothes anymore but not big enough for maternity clothes. So i'm trying to make whatever still fits last a little longer. So far, I've bought a couple maternity tops. Not many as I didn't care for the style right now. It must be the season as I've not seen any really cute maternity tops as I did in the past. I hope they come out with some really cute tops soon.

I can feel baby moving at times. Not a very strong feeling yet, but just like something's fluttering by. It feels a little strange when baby gives a hard kick or something. Like something rolling in your tummy. But I look forward to those moments. It's so fun. I can spend hours with my hand on my tummy just feeling the movements.

Jonathan's amazing! He can hear the baby's heartbeat when he puts his ear to my tummy! Not all the time depending on the baby's position, but I wish I could hear it too! He could hear it since 3 weeks ago. Each week it gets stronger and stronger and he could hear movements too. Like something moving in water.

I'm so excited about the ultrasound and wish it was tomorrow. It seems like 2 weeks is taking forever to get here!

Week 14

It's been a long couple of weeks. It seemed like the last few weeks were the longest weeks in my life. I've had bad morning sickness from week 9 to 13. Nauseous, giddy spells, migraines and just a yicky feeling in my body. Loss of appetite too which made my nauseous worse. When I don't eat, I get very nauseous but yet I dont't feel like eating. Hopefully, it's all behind me now.

My tummy is pooching out a little. My normal clothes are getting snug around the stomach area. Last weekend, I went for some shopping therapy and bought some cute tops for myself. It's amazing how shopping can make a girl feel so much better! Maternity clothes don't quite fit me yet, but regular clothes in a bigger size and stretchy material works for now.

Can't wait for my next doctor's appt!
