Along: 14 weeks
Size of baby: LBMH is the size of a naval orange - 4.5 inches long and 2-3 ounces. This week, the baby's eyes and ears are taking their final place on his or her face, and now he or she is practicing breathing, sucking and swallowing.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 4.5 pounds
Maternity Clothes: I picked my maternity jeans up from the tailor and am loving them. Maternity clothes are way more comfortable, and I'm wearing them more and more.
Gender: ???
Movement: None yet!
What I miss: feeling normal. I feel like I've been complaining lately, but pregnancy has not exactly been easy. Nausea, tired all the time and no meds for allergies have taken a toll. Hopefully the second trimester will bring fewer symptoms.
Cravings: WATER (lots and lots of water - still). I also had a craving for a Health Camp corndog and s'more shake on Friday, which Erik was glad to stop and get on our way to Dallas. I think he's liking the cravings more than I am...
Symptoms: The nausea is pretty well gone (hooray!), but heartburn has started to settle in. It did seem to get better by the end of the week, though.
Best moment of the week: Spending the weekend with family, including our nephew's 7th birthday party. We had fun celebrating with him, and his little brother and sister. We love all three of them so much!
Looking forward to: our Sunday School pumpkin carving social at our house this weekend. This is our third year to host it, and we always have a good time.

Love your cravings! A s'more shake from Health Camp was one of the last things I enjoyed while pregnant. It was delicious, and I miss having an excuse to have one whenever I want! :)
It was so yummy, too! I got a small one - hoping to satisfy the craving without going overboard. :)
