My energy is definitely picking up this week!
I've been struggling with some pretty regular headaches, but they're nothing a little caffeine and Acetaminophen can't cure. And my nausea is almost a thing of the past! However, a stuffy nose has come on within the past week or two, and it's hanging around. As each week passes, my symptoms are almost textbook. It's a very encouraging thing to feel "right on track". I've gained roughly four pounds at this point, but I look like I've gained ten!
The good news is it's all in my stomach.

I decided to poll people on Facebook and get their gut instinct on whether we'll be having a boy or a girl. I couldn't believe the overwhelming responses to boy!! .. Do other people know something I don't? I would really love to have a girl, but I think a boy would be neat for my parents and for Scott.
We should be finding out in about a month.

This past Saturday, Scott and I went to a huge southern Charlotte consignment fair and got some gently-used maternity clothes, as well as some gender-neutral baby clothes! I couldn't control myself when I saw yellow chicky buntings for a dollar. We got some chicky socks, and an "I Love Daddy" fuzzy pajama! I love chickies, and I absolutely plan to inundate this child [and everyone else involved] with yellow chicks and baby lambs.
Below is my first baby bump picture.
It was taken at 15 weeks, but I look like I'm 30.

How is that four pounds?!
15 weeks and things have been going very well. I can't wait until we can see an ultrasound. Then the gender-neutral shopping can end. How good has God been to us during this pregnancy?
ReplyDeleteI thought the socks were ducks, not chicks?
I <3 you and baby.
