15 Weeks

I'm definitely off on my posting this week. I have been thrown for a loop once again with this pregnancy. I woke up on Wednesday morning with a terrible sore throat and a headache. By noon it was so terrible that I decided to take off the rest of the afternoon and rest. By Wednesday night my head was throbbing, I was achy and had a 101 fever. I couldn't keep much down and I was getting worried so I called my doc. She basically told me to keep doing what I was doing and if it got worse go to the ER. I went to bed and woke up around 2am with the worse body chills I've ever had. My fever was back up and I was hurting. That went on for 2 hours. Finally I went back to sleep. I stayed home Thursday and went to see my doctor that afternoon and got checked out and got some meds. The baby was fine and I'm feeling much better today. But being sick with a sinus infection while pregnant is no fun at all. I can't take anything I would normally take and basically rely on my Neti Pot and cough drops. I'm still pretty congested, but hopefully will be back to normal soon.

Here’s what’s happening in Week 15: 

Weight Loss/Gain? I think I back up to +1 pounds.

Cravings: Food has gotten better. I'm able to eat more, but I really don't have any strong cravings yet.

Aversions: Like I said food has gotten better this week for me. I've branched out from my usual oatmeal, grilled cheese and chicken salad diet and tried some new stuff. My nose is so sensitive still that if I smell something weird it still makes me gag. I can't stand the strong odor of our dish washing soap and Brandon's deodorant.

Gender: Won't find out til first week of August. I go back and forth to what I think it is.  

Favorite Moment this Week: Not throwing up everyday. But last week was really tough so it's hard for me to pick a favorite moment.

Sleeping: I'm sleeping in the guest room right now, because it's the quietest, coolest, and most comfortable place for me to sleep. Did this when I was pregnant with Hannah too.

Clothes: Most all my regular clothes still fit, but they're getting tighter by the day.

Most looking forward to: Fourth of July weekend and hanging out with my family.
