15 weeks

How far along: 15 weeks

Baby's size: an apple;4 inches long, and 2.5 oz.

What Munchkin is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
She's busy moving amniotic fluid through her nose and upper respiratory tract, which helps the primitive air sacs in her lungs begin to develop. Her legs are growing longer than her arms now, and she can move all of her joints and limbs. Although her eyelids are still fused shut, she can sense light. If you shine a flashlight at your tummy, for instance, she's likely to move away from the beam. There's not much for your baby to taste at this point, but she is forming taste buds. Finally, if you have an ultrasound this week, you may be able to find out whether your baby's a boy or a girl! 

Symptoms: I think the migraines may be beginning; some minor aches and pains

Total Weight Gain:  5 pounds

Best moment since last update: Nana and Pap Pap came to visit
J

Movement: Yes!  It feels like baby is doing somersaults at times J

Food cravings: sweets!

What I miss: I’m beginning to feel pregnant and it’s been hard telling Joel he can’t crawl or lay on me the way he would like.

What I'm looking forward to: fall weather to come and stay!
