Bump Watch '09

14 weeks
When I was pregnant with Johnnie, I didn't take any pictures of myself, didn't like it when people took pictures of me, and generally didn't keep track of my progress. I remember a lot of things but I didn't write anything down or do anything special. With a new year and a new baby (and a new camera!) I wanted to at least make an effort this time around. Haha.

I went to the doctor last week and they changed my due date to July 2nd. It was July 9th which I liked because that was Johnnie's due date. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be happy in the end when I'm counting down the days and hours and minutes until I deliver. I have an ultrasound scheduled for the 22nd and I cannot wait until I find out what we're having. We want a girl really badly but a boy would be great, too. I'd be so outnumbered though!

So here I am at 14 weeks along:

Morning Sickness: Absolutely none until the past couple weeks or so. Its not really bad, just a little queasy here and there. Don't really know what's going on. I didn't have morning sickness with Johnnie, just a little nauseous in the mornings and that was only during the first trimester.

Cravings: Candy, Cookies, and Seafood. Right now I really want crab salad. And, sushi even though I've never had anything besides a California roll. Weird. For the most part I just crave what other people are eating. The other day Johnnie and I were watching Bee Movie and they were eating guacamole and I wanted it REALLY badly. So badly that I was hunting down a good guacamole recipe so I could make it.

Aversions: Sub sandwiches. The thought of a tuna melt makes my eyes water.

Weight Gain: I wont go into specifics, but I was showing right away with this baby. I found out when I was about 5 weeks along and I was so bloated already that there was a bunch of work clothes that I couldn't wear. Now, I'm down to about 3 pairs of slacks so I desperately need to go maternity work clothes shopping. I'm starting to get into the phase now where I actually look pregnant and not just fat and lumpy. I hate the fat lumpy stage.

Oddities: Being braindead is the biggest thing. I had to tell my boss's at work that I was pregnant around only 7 weeks because I kept making dumb, stupid mistakes that I made only when I was brand new. Except for now. I've also been having headaches and my face is breaking out. The other day I found my very first back pimple. I almost cried and made Jeff pop it. He wasn't too happy about that but neither was I. He'll live.
