baby #4||week 15


15 weeks pregnant with Trent

Weight gain/loss: 96.0lbs this morning I have gained two pounds this pregnancy.

Sleep: Sleep has been great! I haven't needed to nap and I am going to sleep around 9pm. I usually wake up once at night to use the bathroom. 

Diet/Cravings/Aversions: Slowly I have been drinking coffee again, but not everyday it does not make me sick like it used to. For me this has been great because I love coffee, being a mom of three active boys I need the caffeine! Meat has been my other aversion since around 5 weeks and it has also pretty much gone away. I am by no means craving either coffee or meat, but I will have some and it won't make me sick the rest of the day like it used to. As for cravings, I love, love, love avocado! I have loved it this whole pregnancy, but now its become an addiction. I love it on everything especially eggs whites, on toast and wrapped in cheese or even with just a little sea salt.Yum!

Movement: definitely felt our baby kick a few times this week. Once, while I was driving and another time while I was in bed in the middle of the night after I got up to use the bathroom and was trying to fall back asleep. So amazing! 

What I'm loving: Starting to feel baby kicks! As I said when I was pregnant with Trent, this is my favorite part of pregnancy. Since this is my last pregnancy, I am loving these little kicks even more than ever before and I am really trying to cherish each one!

Symptoms: Weird vivid dreamsemotional, skin is still breaking out, but not as bad as it was.

Exercise: Family walks and a few 20 minute exercises.

What I'm looking forward to: Seeing our sweet baby girl tomorrow!

Home doppler: Last night the doppler ranged in the 160s bpm.

Countdowns:

Days until our next appointment: 1 day!
Days until due date: less than 175 

*With my history of naturally going into labor around 36/37 weeks pregnant, I am pretty sure we will have her in September. I really don't mind though, I have a September birthday and would love to share having birthdays in the same month with my daughter! I just hope she stays in long enough for Landon and Oliver to get settled into school before her arrival.
