14 weeks along
At our last appointment a couple weeks ago we got to hear the heart beat! It was amazing to hear the little beating of our baby's heart. It was so exciting!! I just wish we could see the baby again. I want another ultrasound so bad to see how much the baby has grown and to see it moving around. When we were listening to the heartbeat, we kept hearing a ton of swishing noises and the doctor said that the baby was super active and moving all around.
So I'm officially at 15 weeks, definitely showing (last week I had a stranger ask how far along I was for the first time) and the morning sickness has only gotten worse!! I thought it would be over by now, but the puking and nausea are hitting harder than ever this week :(. I'm hoping it will come to an end soon. It makes work pretty miserable. You know it's bad when you have an 8 year old tell you that you look really pale. I've tried a lot of things so far and nothing is consistent. The doctor gave me another prescription and wants me to stop taking my prenatal vitamins for a while to see if that helps. Keeping my fingers crossed that it works! We'll see.
I have had people ask if I am having any cravings and the answer is no. No cravings whatsoever. What I am having, however, is major food aversion. I can't eat most meats (I miss chicken and beef-oh how I wish I could have a hamburger), and some salads even gross me out. I like plain, simple foods right now.
I don't love my all-day-sickness, but I love my growing belly, and the fact that in 6 months I'm going to be a mommy! That is what keeps me going!!
