Pregnancy update

So I'm about 14 1/2 weeks along but I feel like my tummy pokes out way farther than it should!! I can't believe how pregnant I look already!


A couple things about this pregnancy so far:

I've been sick! I get sick around 10 in the morning every day which a little snack usually helps. Then I am sick from 3:00 every day until I go to sleep. It makes making dinner particularly hard every day. Some days I'm sick all day long but others I'm just sick at the normal times.

I haven't had really any weird cravings. Mostly I've been in the stage where it's hard to find something I can eat that doesn't sound absolutely disgusting. 

I can't eat garlic. With each of my pregnancies, I've had a hard time with garlic, but it seems to be getting worse with each one. I can't even use a little garlic powder to season things. The other day I made spaghetti and the only spaghetti sauce we had left in the pantry had garlic in it. I used it anyway and was extra sick all night after wards. Then I had some leftovers the next day and ended up losing my lunch. It's bit that I just done like garlic while I'm pregnant, but it is actually making me sick. Totally weird!

Even with my tummy as huge as it is, I still fit into my normal clothes. I've pulled out a few maternity things just to have a little variety but don't need them quite yet. Rachel is really funny though. Anytime I wear some of my maternity clothes she tells me how much she likes them.  She totally notices every shirt or pants or dress I wear. She makes me laugh.

Kent loves to pull up my shirt and kiss my tummy. It's super cute!!

Last time I had weighed myself (last week) I hadn't gained anything yet which is always nice. Now that I'm out of my first trimester though I'm sure that will be changing soon.

My baby is the size of a lemon! I think it's amazing how fast babies grow from something you can't see to a full size baby! 9 months is really an amazingly fast time for that to happen!

I have my first OB appointment and ultrasound next week and I am sooooo excited! I can hardly wait to see this little baby I'm growing in my tummy! It will be too early to tell the gender but I don't care, I'm just excited to be able to see my little lemon wiggling! I love ultrasounds!
