I've made it to 15 weeks and survived another blood test. I feel like I've swallowed a basketball. I really have to look and see if I was this big during my first pregnancy. The baby should be a little over 4 inches long by now. I'm still able to sleep on my stomach with some difficulty and I'm still sleeping on my back. I plan to do so for as long as humanly possible. When I sleep on my side my arms fall asleep and I end up waking up and having to settle down again. I wake up several times a night and find it hard to sleep peacefully through the night. If it's not my arms falling asleep then it's my bladder telling me to get up. Ah the joys of pregnancy. I haven't felt the baby move, or at least I don't think so. I chalk up any feelings to my stomach working. I suppose it could be the little one moving around in there but I can't say definitively that I've felt the baby move. I'm sure I'll start to feel something in the next couple of weeks.
I woke up this morning feeling like I was going to throw up and had a terrible headache. I figure it must have been low blood sugar. Monday the 24th was my birthday and i made myself a super sweet chocolate cake. I had a piece when we went to visit JP's parents and that was the last thing I ate before sleeping. It could be that it crashed my blood sugar during the night. I hadn't felt that bad in the morning for ages. No more cake for me thank you, pass that apple would you?
Anna has been sweet and petting my belly and saying baby. I'm not sure how much she understands but she must see the belly getting bigger. At some point I won't be able to lift her as much as she'd like. She's already 13 Kg (about 29 lbs) and she's quite the load. I'm feeling good so far and no pain! I'm so happy that the knife like pain I felt in the first pregnancy hasn't made a reappearance yet. I hope I won't have any discomfort at all. I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed.
