Fifteen

Wow, fifteen sounds like a pretty big number!!  So 15 weeks in, 25 weeks (or so) left to go.  

How Far Along: 15 weeks
Total weight gain: 3.5lbs still, no change this week.  Except for yesterday when my scale randomly decided to tell me that actually I have gained 8.5 pounds.  Today it is back to normal.
Maternity clothes: Bought a few items at Destination Maternity last weekend which were fun to wear this week, and have a few more coming in the mail today!
Sleep: A few nights having to wake up a lot, but the last two nights have been pretty good.
What do you miss: Not feeling like I'm really missing anything this week!
Movement: I thought I *might* have felt a flutter earlier in the week.  But probably not.  I should start feeling them  in the next few weeks hopefully and they'll get stronger!!
Food cravings: macaroni & cheese!
Anything making you queasy or sick: I think I have felt fine all week actually, so yay for that!
Gender: Find out TOMORROW!!!
Labor signs: None :)
Symptoms: This week the headaches have been pretty bad.  I get them towards the end of the work day and they persist pretty much all evening.  
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: Feeling energetic and happy this week.  Started going back to the gym on Monday which is helping my energy I think!
Looking forward to: Finding out the sex tomorrow and knowing what we are having!

What's happening in week 15?

Baby is about 4" long and 2.5 oz (over 1/8 lb now!)
They are moving amniotic fluid through nose & upper resp. tract to help air sacs develop.
Legs are growing longer than arms and they can move all their limbs & joints.
Eyelids are shut, but if I shine a flashlight on my tummy they should sense the light and probably move away from it!
Taste buds are forming!
