Pregnancy: 15 Weeks Bump Update

Whoa! I cannot believe I am nearly halfway through this pregnancy-it feels like it has just begun. I have been feeling the baby move more now though with an anterior placenta, I am not feeling it as much as I could. Its mostly on the sides where I feel movement. Our fetal doppler came in and its been fun using it to hear baby’s heart beat! It is also so calming as well to know its doing okay in there after we have been scared a bit. This week I have been busy packing for Disney World as we are taking the kids next week on their last summer adventure. I am NOT looking forward to the heat of Orlando in July BUT I am grateful that I wont be too big yet haha. I wont be able to ride many things but I will be able to see the kiddos enjoy and make memories which is so great. I have been feeling pretty good this week overall and just staying busy.

How far along? 15 weeks

Baby size: an apple

Total weight gain: I have been fluctuating between a weight gain of 3-4 lbs

Maternity clothes? Not usually. But I am wearing them here and there.

Stretch marks? No

Sleep: Sleeping good but vivid dreams this week. I dreamed some of my chickens died and that was no fun.

Workouts: I kept up with my usual routine although its been too muggy and humid outside for my evening walks with my husband.

Diet: Diet is pretty normal! We have been doing HelloFresh a lot more to just save time and stress on what to cook. Highly recommend.

Best moment this week:  There was not a HUGE moment this week. Really just packing for our upcoming Disney trip and hearing baby’s heartbeat everyday.

Miss anything? Being able to ride rollercoasters since I wont be able to next week LOL

Food cravings: My friend Erin baked a TON of bagels for us so I have been diving into those. We have chocolate chip, jalapeno and cheddar, and strawberries and cream. I top mine with cream cheese of course.

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing! I am actually not super starving every minute anymore so I do not get queasy.

Gender:  Will reveal soon… 🙂 Keep an eye out!

Labour signs: No!

Symptoms: The low back pain is starting to happen, I think. Its mild though.

Belly button in or out? In! It never popped out the last 2 times.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Notes:

I found out I was pregnant at just 3 weeks of pregnancy after we did our frozen embryo transfer. If you haven’t followed my IVF journey, check out my frozen embryo transfer blog and my egg retrieval blog. Long story short, my husband was infertile due to the structure of his reproductive system-his vas deferens were missing so IVF was the only way and it worked the first try!

I have not been pregnant in 8 years almost so it is wild that I am doing it all over again and hope to do it only fourth and final time in another two-three years. Wish us luck and love! I will be doing these pregnancy progression bump updates weekly so you can “grow” with me along with a bump photo + questions about my pregnancy.

Your trainer and friend,
