14 Weeks - Hello Second Trimester!


Again it has been a few weeks since I have written - we were busy preparing and going on our trip for our 1 year anniversary! Our first trimester screening went perfectly - Baby Komorek looks great and healthy! We are so thankful for that, and pray it continues! Above is a picture of the baby at almost 12 weeks. It looks like a baby now - yay!! We don't get to see the baby again until probably September, but we can't wait!


How far along? 14 weeks
Maternity clothes? Unless they are stretchy, then I am much more comfortable at this point in maternity pants, even though they are a little loose right now. Shirt-wise, I still can wear several things that are not maternity, but I do have a few maternity shirts that I am wearing (though mostly because of my growing chest at this point more so than the belly!)
Stretch marks? Not so far, but I think some are trying to pop up on my chest. I will be battling those intensely!
Sleep: Tossing & turning, and frequent wake-ups for pee breaks. I'm also starting to have problems with my neck and back hurting, which makes it hard to get comfortable. I'm also a belly sleeper, so I am enjoying that as long as I can...and I think I may be getting creative to continue as long as possible!
Best moment this week: Realizing that my nausea is starting to go away!!
Have you told family and friends: Yes, we have told everyone. It is SO great to be able to talk about it openly!
Miss Anything?  I am still missing a good deli sandwich, but I am also missing having the ability to eat some of my favorite things (apparently many of them the baby does not want me to enjoy right now)
Movement: Still too soon. :o(
Food cravings: I had a craving for my Mom's potato salad...and because my Mom is awesome, she made me some!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Often coffee, chocolate, and "heavy" desserts. Gross smells will also do the trick. Thankfully the nausea is starting to lessen, which is great.
Have you started to show yet: A little bump so far.. gets bigger by the end of the day
Gender prediction: Not sure
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On, but they are getting tighter!
Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm generally happy, but I certainly have my moods, especially when I haven't slept well.
Looking forward to: Feeling the baby move for the first time, and finding out the gender!!
