14 weeks

How far along?  14 weeks and 2 days

Baby this week?  Baby is between 3.5 and 4 inches from head to butt.  Baby is in there making faces.  Baby might even possibly be starting to grow hair!  If it's a girl, her eggs are already developed in her ovaries. If it's a boy, the prostate glad is in the process of developing!

Symptoms?  Oy. Where do I start?  Still nauseous on and off, though it's been MUCH better the last couple days.  Gag reflex is at an all time high still.  When I take the zofran, I get a headache. Though that it better than nausea.  My eyes have been itching and burning the last few days.  Then yesterday I started getting a stuffy nose, sore throat and sneezing a lot.  And the sneezing still turns into gagging! Last night, I sneezed in bed and had a horrid sharp pain at my cesarean scar site!  I swore I ruptured my uterus but the pain subsided pretty quickly. It just caught me off guard.  Also...my digestive system has slowed to a crawl.  Ugghhh...  This happened last time too.  All the hormones are notorious for this.  But constipation has been an issue this week...which has been causing stomach cramps and tummy aches.  Fatigue is letting up a bit.  I can make it through the day without a nap...but am usually in bed pretty early. But other than those things, I feel fabulous.  Lol.

Cravings/Aversions?  So...things are looking up in this department...which I think is a good sign.  I'm still not craving salads and chicken, which are staples in !u regular diet.  But food is actually starting to sound good sometimes. Eating has been such a chore so even if it's just a snack or for 1 meal that I'm looking forward to eating, I'll take it!!!  Mongolian grill sounded good for a minute today. Of course, I didn't get any because I was too tired but that's not the point!

Goals for the week?  Since Mason is on the go so much, I really want to get my floors deep cleaned!  I also want to clean the truck and install Masons new car seat!  We have our next prenatal appointment tomorrow where we start the cervical length monitoring and weekly progesterone shots.  So send put a little prayer that baby is doing well and everything looks OK!

Mason?  No huge developments with Mason since last week!  Still just crawling all over the place!  Oh...and he'll be 9 months old in a couple days!!!  Love my little guy so much! Can't believe in 3 months, he'll be a year old!!!

Belly pic will probably come later this week!  It's really starting to poike out there...at least it feels that way.
