15 weeks

Ahhhh, 15 WEEKS!!!! Doesn't that sound sooo much farther along than 14? I think so!!! This past week has been hard on me. Last week when I said I was pretty sure the morning sickness had gone away, well I lied. Just because I didn't feel sick for two days didn't mean squat. But this week has been more than morning sickness. I've been suffering from headaches, dizziness, shakes, constipation(sorwee), cramps, aches, pains. After talking to a couple people, someone suggested that maybe my blood sugar was low. Well, defintely possible. I went to my trusty Dr. Google and I did have a few of the symptoms of low blood sugar. Then I researched a little more and I had every.single.symptom of Dehydration. Easy Peasy, drink water! LOTS & LOTS & LOTS of water! It has helped, but I still have my spells a couple times a day rather than all day all night. This baby is sucking the life out of me! I'm either getting a red head or a girl, heck maybe ever both! Makes me a little nervous. 'They' claim that your baby's personality will be like your pregnancy/labor. Which could be true. My pregnancy with Luke was almost picture perfect and his delievery was a breeze and he turned out to be so calm & laid back. We shall see...

Defintely showing. People have been rubbing the belly all week. I feel like Buddah. I don't really mind 'alllll that much'. Unless I don't know them, that's just weird! But poking, PLEASE don't poke my belly. I don't poke my belly. I'm sure my baby doesn't like you poking my belly. Buddah, not Pilsbury Dough Boy. Mmmkay!

I have my monthly check up Wednesday! I look forward to these appointments, to hear the baby's heartbeat & make sure everything is going good (even if I have to wait over an hour every.single.time!). Side Note: I scheduled my appointment for 2:45 in SoCo. I don't get out of class until 2:30 in Red Bud. If I have to sit in the waiting room for an hour anyway, might as well drive to waste the time. Let's hope this works out to my advantage and not againist me!  Plus, this appointment we will be scheduling our 20 week ultrasound. YAY!!! I can't wait to find out the sex!!! Trav & I have agreed no more talk about names, what to do with the baby's room, etc until we find out. No sense in arguing over a boy name if we're not even having a boy.

And for the most exciting news!!!!! I felt the baby move today!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aww :)!!!! Seriously, I missed that feeling so much! It was my favorite part of being pregnant with Luke. I can't wait for Trav & Luke to be able to feel the baby move. I think Luke is going to either freak or think it's sooo cool!!!

I can't speak for everyone, but my pregnancies were JUST like my kids' personalties. Evie made me sicker than a dog and gave me sleepless nights in the third trimester. Now she's my little pistol. My pregnancy with Grace was a breeze, and she is a super easy baby!
