There is no bump photo from this week. John worked late this weekend and I wasn't able to get a picture taken.
How Far Along: 14 weeks, 4 days as of May 8th
Size Of Baby: Baby is the size of a lemon, and is 3 1/2 inches long. Baby weighs 1 1/2 ounces.
According to the babycenter,
"Baby can now squint, frown, grimace, pee, and possibly suck his thumb! Thanks to brain impulses, his facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another. His kidneys are producing urine, which he releases into the amniotic fluid around him — a process he'll keep up until birth."

Maternity Clothes: Not yet. But I'm wondering when I should get them. I still fit into my jeans comfortably, but they're not too flattering. I have a bit of a lower tummy bulging out.
Weight Gain: Some days I feel normal sized and others, I look in the mirror and see a bump. I've only gained 1 lb so far. I'm at 124.5.

Stretch Marks: Nope. Lathering on my body oil each night.
Sleep: I had a few rough nights this week when I tried avoiding sleeping on my tummy and back. I just couldn't get comfortable. The next night, I decided to forgo my experiment and just continue to enjoy these positions until the doctor tells me otherwise.
Best Moment of the Week: When I looked in the mirror one morning, and thought that a baby bump was forming.
Movement: Not yet. You are deep in there.
Cravings: I had my first real craving this week and John was a loving husband. All of a sudden, I NEEDED to have rice crispy treats. So I went up to John, who was on the chair playing video games.
Me: Babbbb-y, how much do you love me?
Him: Why? What did you do?
Me: Nothing. Do you think you could go to the store and buy some marshmellows and rice krispy treats so that I can make rice crispy treats?
Him: Oh boy. Is this like a pregnancy craving?
Me: Maybe. They just sound SO good and I have to finish making dinner.
Him: Ok. But let's not make this a habit.

Such a sweet guy. I couldn't believe he did this for me. My pregnancy hormones almost took over as I held back tears. hehe. I even called my mom to tell her how great he was.
Gender: I am beginning to realize that I have an overwhelming feeling that you are a girl. But that could just be my brain playing tricks on me. 5 long more weeks until we know for sure!
Belly Button In or Out: In
Wedding Ring on or Off: On- But last week it slipped off my finger at the supermarket! I thought your fingers were supposed to get fatter, not skinnier!
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: Not really.
What I Miss: Finding an outfit to wear without having to shift through my closet a 100 times wondering if the outfit makes me look fat or pregnant.
Labor Signs: N/A
Symptoms: Feeling pretty good these past few weeks.

Nursery: Thoughts are forming. I've been researching registry items all this week. I can't really do anything for the nursery until I find out whether baby is a boy or girl.
