14 weeks!

How Far Along: 14 weeks today!

How Big Are the Babies:   Okay, peaches seem much bigger to me then lemons, but I guess they are just going by length.  I don't know about you, but I have had some pretty large peaches in my day!  Anyways, we've got lemons!




Babies are now the size of  lemons!
Your adorable little fetuses are busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine, and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys, and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over her body for warmth.




 

Total Weight Gain: 12 lbs!  Woo hoo!  Just kidding... its totally creeping up!


Maternity Clothes: I am starting to live in them.  I am not loving the Belly band anymore.  My pre preggo pants aren't very comfortable.  I really wish I could live in gym clothes!

Sleep: Hit or miss.  I slept so good the other night then last night, horrible!  I woke up tired today...


GENDER: ONE WEEK SIX DAYS!!!!!  I made an official appointment now!  We are going at 5:30 when C gets off work then meeting our families for dinner for C's bday and going to tell them the news!!


Movement: Still waiting...  But I read that with twins you can feel them as early as 14 weeks!  That's today!


Food Cravings: Okay I have been SERIOUSLY craving sour patch kids!  Sour candies!  I haven't had any!  I don't really like eating candy and sweets and I know its nothing great for me or the babies!  The weird thing is is that I don't remember eating sour patch kids in years!!!  Probably at least 10 years!!


What I Miss: I'm still missing my energy and now I'm missing my yoga!  No exercise til tomorrow!! 

What I'm looking forward to: Tomorrow, so I can hopefully get off of this "rest," the spotting to stop, and feeling the babies move.

Milestones: 14 weeks! Now I'm am officially officially in the second trimester.  No one can tell me otherwise ;-)

Symptoms:  I had another debilitating headache yesterday!  I pretty much get them everyday, but sometimes they decide to linger and get really bad I have to lay down.  I also think I've been feeling Round Ligament Pain.  Its sharp throbbing pain in my lower pelvic area on the sides.

Yay for 14 weeks! I hope the spotting has completely ceased so that you can get back moving around.

Woohoo!!! I was just at my doctor today, and the pain you described is exactly how she described round ligament pain... and what I've had some of, too. You're growin', momma!

Congrats on entering the 2nd trimester! I feel your pain- I too have been getting really bad headaches! Hopefully they will ease up soon!
