Weeks 14 and 15

I’m 15 weeks along this week so here is my week 14 and 15 week update. I’m finally up to date with my photos!

How far along? 14 and 15 weeks. Baby is the size of an lemon, now orange.  
Maternity clothes? Not yet. But most of my pants are officially uncomfortable and I can’t close the top button. I’ve been rocking the BeBand that Erin let me borrow.
Stretch marks? Not yet.
Sleep: I’m sleeping much better thanks to the Boppy Prenatal Total Body Pillow. Erin recommended it and I love it!

Best moment this week:  Hearing our baby’s strong and steady heartbeat at my doctor’s appointment on Monday. And also sharing the news on the blog and on facebook. It’s so fun to finally have our big secret out there!
Miss Anything? I can’t think of anything I miss this week.
Movement: Nope.
Food cravings: I’m still loving my raspberries and cottage cheese….but am adding pickles and baked potatoes to the list of foods I currently love.
Anything making you queasy or sick: The same as two weeks ago….red meat, broccoli, carrots, and greek yogurt.  
Gender: We find out April 16! Can’t wait.
Labor Signs: No 
Symptoms: I’m feeling MUCH better this week….still a little tired but that’s it. I’ve had a pretty easy pregnancy so far….let’s hope it stays that way.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Mood: Grateful
Looking forward to:  Starting work on the nursery!

    LOOK AT THAT CUTE LIL BELLY! You are too adorable. We have a chalk board closet in our kitchen (yes, the door to the closet is a huge chalk board – so strange) and I can NEVER get it to look at cute as yours!

    Happy 15 weeks, Julie!
