I am officially in the second trimester. Actually 14 weeks and 6 days!
According to the Bump, this week:The baby is the size of a lemon
and is probably sucking his thumb and wiggling his or her toes!
During our last ultrasound we saw him/her opening and closing his/her mouth. Jef says it takes after me and is practicing to talk non-stop.
Cravings: Eggs, chicken is back! raspberries, lemons, almond butter and bananas. I do crave sweets but if I give in I will be nauseous for hours!
Ummm my cheese craving may be a little out of control. What do you think?
Aversions: Oatmeal and the smell of turkey jerky
Morning sickness: better but I still have my days- especially if I give in to anything sweet.
Baby items bought: still zero.
Looking forward: to the next ultrasound in a couple of weeks.
Gender suspicions: I am carrying low and the baking soda test indicate boy!
Names: Still kicking names around.
Energy levels: coming back... but I may or may not have been taking 1-2 hour naps in the afternoon when I can.
Workouts: walking is back and I am going to check out joining the pool for water aerobics.
Duncan (the dog) has developed this habit of rubbing his head on my stomach. I think he hears something :)
Dreams: One of the weirdest pregnancy symptoms that I have been experiencing is strange dreams(they are due to the rise in hormones). Last night I dreamt I was being chased by a band of vampires but was able to ward them off by sing the Star Spangled Banner ( they were patriotic and had to stop trying to kill me and stand at attention with their hand over their hearts! ). I then finished them off with America the Beautiful!
