Preggo Friday!

Baby Progress:
By week 14, your baby is around the size of a lemon, measuring about 3 1/2 inches and weighing 1 1/2 ounces. His body also starts to even out this week, as his arms and head are finally proportionate to the rest of his body. His hands and feet now measure about a 1/2 inch long and are actively punching and kicking inside you. Don't be alarmed if you can't feel this movement, it's too small for you to feel.
Your baby is also busy making facial expressions by week 14. He can squint his eyes, and his lips can turn into a frown. His neck has grown longer and his chin starts to take shape. His kidneys can produce urine and his liver has begun to produce bile. His spleen has even begun to help in the production of red blood cells.

My Progress Report:
How far along? 14 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: +4 lbs.
How much does baby weigh?
Symptoms: Occasional waves of nausea, tire easily, gassy (ew), pregnancy brain has settled in already, very sensitive, backaches.
Maternity clothes? Pretty much everything, except for my PJ's.
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: Most of the time good.
Best moment this week: Making it 14 weeks!
Food cravings: Right now Arby's sounds really good....
Food aversions: Leftover Taco Casserole...for some reason the stench from it being reheated was totally disgusting.
Gender: Still waiting...
Labor signs: way to early for this.
Belly Button - in or out? in.
What I miss: nothing as of right now, I've waited so long for this.....
What I am looking forward to: finding out what baby is; but that won't happen until the end of May!
Milestones: well, I have felt the baby move; but some people think I am crazy!
