Maternity Mondays: Week 14

Monday, October 10, 2011

I am counting down the days for this week because on Saturday we are finding out the sex of our baby! I can not wait and I really hope that he/she cooperates with the technician at the 3D photography place. The last time I think I failed to mention that baby B was very stubborn during the sonogram at the doctor's office and would not change position so we could get the right shot! We are not having your typical experience by having the technician tell us the sex, instead we are waiting to find out later that evening by cutting into a cake made by a friend and seeing if it is pink or blue! It's going to kill me to wait all day but it will be worth it to find out with all of our friends and family. Let's just say Maternity Mondays week 15 is gonna be a big one!
14 weeks!

This is the official beginning of my second trimester. I thought it was last week (oops) but realized it's this week. I am getting BIG! Yikes! And I still have six months to go! However, depending on what I wear sometimes you really can't tell. It's the profile shots that give me away. :)

This weekend we went out of town for our last wedding this season and I held a 2 month old baby. I totally had anxiety that she would cry the whole time but she fell asleep in my arms...so completely precious! Here she is...
Getting ready to do this on my own! 
I loved holding her but could not believe how tired my arms were! And she's only 12 pounds... pathetic! Definitely need to start getting back into weights. Arg. 

Not much else to report on this week. Still feeling awesome and actually enjoying the roundness that my stomach is taking on. :) I wake up sometimes in the middle of the night and try to see if I can feel any movement but I know it's still too early. Baby B is the size of my fist...about 4 inches from head to rump. Getting bigger! Have a great Maternity Monday! :)

  1. I remember SJP was interviewed by someone after having her baby, apparently he was big and the interviewer asked how she lifts him and her answer was "with pleasure". Love that.

  2. OH I cannot wait to hear what the baby's gender is! I think that is super cute that you're having a reveal! I've seen friends do that and it's SOO cute. :) Just went to a friend's baby shower yesterday...she's having a girl and it was all about the pink! :)
