Darrell & Sharyn

Weekly Updates: 3/8 of the way there!

How far along: 15 weeks

Baby’s size: Apple – Your baby has grown to the size of an apple and weighs about 2.5 ounces. (CRL = 4 inches)

Sleep: Great! Had one night full of nightmares, so I kept waking myself up all night, but that was about it.

Maternity Clothes: Yep. Even though they aren’t exactly “maternity,” just larger regular clothes.

Food Cravings: Still no cravings. But I am hungry all the time.

Food Aversions: None at this time.

Symptoms I have: I have one zit on my chin that will not ripen or go away. It has been there almost this whole pregnancy and Darrell thinks it is funny.

Doctor’s Appointment: Midwife appointment next Wednesday.

Movement: No flutters this week, but I haven’t really focused on trying to find them.

Belly Button: Innie.

Gender: Team Green!

What I’m looking forward to: Still looking forward to Seattle, but not to packing the whole house.

What I miss: I miss being able to wear my blue jeans since it has gotten a lot colder outside. These comfy pants just aren’t cutting in when it comes to the cold wind. I might spend a decent chunk of time in sweatpants if this keeps up.

Weekly Updates:

How far along: 14 weeks

Baby’s size: Lemon – Your baby, now as long as a lemon, weighs about 1.5 ounces. (Length 3.5” head to bottom)

Sleep: Phenomenal! I have only been waking up once a night for the bathroom and that is usually when Darrell comes to bed, so all in all, it has been great!

Maternity Clothes: Yep. Pulled down the box of maternity clothes last night with all of the Christmas decorations.

Food Cravings: None surprisingly. I am actually having a hard time deciding on what to eat most of the time.

Food Aversions: No aversions this week.

Symptoms I have: Breaking out again. My chest has definitely grown in the last week.

Doctor’s Appointment: OB appointment tomorrow.

Movement: No flutters this week, but I haven’t really focused on trying to find them.

Belly Button: Innie.

Gender: Team Green!

What I’m looking forward to: Not exactly preggo related, but I am really looking forward to the house selling and us moving to Seattle.

What I miss: Nothing much this week. I admit I took a sip of wine this weekend since I wanted to try it.

Weekly Updates:

How far along: 13 weeks

Baby’s size: Medium Shrimp – Your baby has reached the size of a medium shrimp and weighs nearly an ounce. (Length: almost 3 inches, head to bottom.)

Sleep: It has been better than ok. Sometimes I only sleep for 6 hours, but then I take a 2 hour nap during the day. Other times I sleep for a full 10 hours. It really depends on the day and what our activities are.

Maternity Clothes: Yep. I put on my jeans last night since we were going to the christmas parade in downtown and it was cold. I could barely button them up with out sucking it in. They were fine as long as I was standing, but sitting was a no-go without unbuttoning them. Time to put them away.

Food Cravings: Still craving that pulled pork sandwich. It is just a mild craving now, so it might go away soon.

Food Aversions: Haven’t had any aversions lately. I can eat sweets in moderation which is nice since I am loving baking!

Symptoms I have: Almost all of my symptoms have gone away. My face has cleared up and I only get sick occasionally.

Doctor’s Appointment: NT scan on Thursday at the MFM’s office! Midwife appointment on Dec 3. Regular OB appointment Dec 5.

Movement: No flutters this week, but I haven’t really focused on trying to find them.

Belly Button: Innie.

Gender: Team Green!

What I’m looking forward to: Getting our NT scan done. I am starting to get anxious and am hoping everything is ok. After the NT, we are sharing on facebook, so I am excited for that as well.

What I miss: Peppermint schnapps in my hot chocolate, but candy canes work just as well. 🙂

*I am a day late again, but I have been busy with some other fabulous developments in our lives and once we figure more out, we will share. I will try to update on time next week, but no promises 🙂 *

Weekly Updates:

How far along: 12 weeks

Baby’s size: Lime – Your baby is, by this time, the size of a lime and weighs 1/2 ounce. (Length: just over 2 inches, head to bottom.)

Sleep: Been sleeping a lot more these last couple of days, but I think it is just because we had a very eventful weekend.

Maternity Clothes: Same as always. I am in my comfy clothes since I sit around the house all day. But my jeans are starting to get a little snug.

Food Cravings: I have actually been craving a pulled pork sandwich from Hole in the Wall. Unfortunately, they are in Arcata and I have yet to have one anywhere else near as good. 🙁 So I am hoping that this craving goes away on it’s own.

Food Aversions: Haven’t had any aversions lately. I can eat sweets in moderation which is nice since I am loving baking!

Symptoms I have: Sick again. I think I actually came down with a small bug though. Either that or it was just lack of sleep since I spent all day on Sunday just laying around not being able to do anything. I am also breaking out like a teenager. It isn’t on my face per se, but it is on my chin and down my neck.

Doctor’s Appointment: Did bloodwork and paperwork today in preparation for our NT scan next Thursday at the MFM’s office. Midwife appointment on Dec 3. Regular OB appointment Dec 5.

Movement: I have felt occasional flutters, but I am not completely convinced it is baby yet. Only time will tell.

Belly Button: Innie.

Gender: Team Green!

What I’m looking forward to: Our NT scan and getting to see Sprout again. It has been a long 2 weeks since we heard Sprout’s heartbeat and we still have another week plus to go.

What I miss: Not missing anything this week.
