14 weeks baby 2.0
i'm not gonna lie y'all, this last week has been rough. i have had a cold for the past month or so, i thought it was allergies because it just never went away, but i'm pretty sure it was a cold, and then it morphed into a sinus infection. i felt so tired and so congested and just so sick and by last friday i had such a horrible, pounding headache, my sinuses throbbing with every movement and every step. i did shoot the wedding, which actually was a wonderful distraction from how awful i felt, not to mention that it was lots of fun and such a beautiful event, but after i got home i just was useless. the rest of the weekend was a blur of urgent care, vomiting, taking naps and just general ickiness. i feel so bad that hubby basically did everything by himself but simultaneously so thankful. we were so behind on laundry, needed groceries, and those types of things. i just lost it after i got back from urgent care because i just felt so sick and i had so much to do to prepare for the week which included a midterm and presentation, and i was so tired from coughing throughout the previous nights and i was still experiencing nausea. but after a couple of days of antibiotics i started to feel better and have more energy. i'm so glad we got through last week. whew! so as i'm writing this (on saturday night) i am 14 weeks and 3 days along. i have 2 more weeks of school and then finals week and then i'm done! i don't mean to be so complain-y but this week sucked. oh, here is something that doesn't suck-when i ask z if he is going to have a baby brother or a baby sister he says 'a brother-sister', it's pretty cute. and he says hi to the baby and gives my belly kisses. i die. ok, so here is the weekly update:
How far along: 14 weeks
Size of baby: about the size of a lemon or peach, the baby is able to make facial expressions, the kidneys are functional andthis little pea can grasp using its hands
Total weight gain/loss: i think i am only up 1 lb now because i lost a little weight after being sick
Maternity clothes: yea
Movement: yea, sometimes i can feel this little sweet pea
Sleep: better now that i'm not coughing myself through the night
What I miss: feeling like a normal, contributing, functional human, but i think i'm coming back
Cravings: i don't have a lot of cravings yet
Symptoms: the nausea is tapering down thank goodness but i still have to snack throughout the day, eating something at least every hour so that i don't get nauseous, round ligament pain, some cramping i assume from everything growing, still a little emotional
Best moment this week: starting to heal and feel better, getting a little more energy back, surviving this week!
here is the comparison picture:
