14 Weeks

Maternity Clothes? I am starting to lean more towards comfortable clothes as often as possible, and dresses for school, but still haven't crossed over yet.  

Stretch Marks? nothing... yet but I did see the scale move a bit this week.

Gender? February 11th is the big day. I just hope little bit cooperates.   

Movement? I'm am certainly feeling a few flutters, especially in the afternoons when I first lay down after being as school all day. While we were at the movies over the weekend, I felt the most prominent movement I have so far.   

Sleep?  My oh my, SNOOGLE. Everyone should have a Snoogle. I thought $60 for a pillow was absurd, but a week of wonderful, restful. peaceful sleep later and I am a true convert. I cannot imagine how much of a lifesaver it will be when I am further along.   

Food Cravings? It varies everyday. I am still devouring Peanut Butter Crunch cereal.

What I Miss? Absolutely nothing

 

Symptoms? Constant sinus problems, otherwise I'm wonderful.

 

Best Moment This Week?

A quick, perfect check up, with a strong heartbeat.

Adding to the registry and planning for the gender reveal.

Feeling Baby Brown.

Baby Brown being 15 weeks as the Crimson Tide brought home their 15th National Title.

Someone Let the Crazy Out

The crazy pregnancy hormones have reared their ugly head.
I'm a little over tired ...first full week back at school plus not quite back in a solid sleeping routine...
I was feeling a little off and decided to go to bed early. I asked Scotty to bring a bottle of water, which he tossed on the bed. In doing so he hit Bamaed and I went off. Not angry. But crying ... ridiculous crying.g and I couldn't stop. I was laughing at myself and still couldn't stop.  Scotty sent me to bed with strict orders to go to sleep SOON ... oh the adventures we will soon be introduced to.

13 Weeks

Weeks 11-12 were a loss due to Holiday Madness, but I did get a picture for Week 12

 Sorry Baby Brown

Maternity Clothes? I am starting to lean more towards comfortable clothes for sure.  Still wearing regular jeans just not as often. 

Stretch Marks? nothing... yet

Gender?Still no idea, but we should be scheduling the appointment to find out soon.  

Movement? I'm convinced I feel little flutters, but I know its still too early. 

Sleep?  Yucky. Sleep is beginning to become uncomfortable and I never expected it to happen so soon. I just cannot get comfortable and my left hip itches and tingles all night.  

Food Cravings? Nothing really. Still more aversion than cravings.  Deciding what to eat every day is an adventure, especially while home for the holidays.

What I Miss? Absolutely nothing

Symptoms? Constant sinus problems, constant left hip discomfort Otherwise, I'm feeling peachy.

Best Moment This Week?
1. Christmas for Baby Brown. Little Bug made a big impression under the Christmas Tree already

Charlie Brown Christmas Book from Grammy, its a favorite that I read aloud every year.

 "But it says Baby Brown, I'm Baby Brown right?!?!"

Baby Brown's First Baseball and Braves Shirt

Baby Brown's new clothes.

2.Scotty surprised me with a Doppler, we were able to record the heartbeat and share it with the grandparents for Christmas.
Its a new favorite past time.  Baby likes to stay low and to the left. Shem doesn't like for us to listen, when we start poking and prodding Shem starts flipping and hiding from us.  

3. Being HOME with Family all around.

 
4. My belly is finally starting to show. I woke up on morning and Boom there it was.  I thought everyone was just joking when they said it would just appear one day. 
 

Looking Forward To?  
1. Our next appointment 01/02/13
2. Continuing to grow a healthy baby
