Week 14
How far along: 14 weeks 4 days (I’m posting this in my almost 16th week)
How much do I weigh: 49,5 kg
Belly size: It’s getting bigger and bigger
Belly button in or out: In
Sleep: The usual
Food (non) cravings: The usual
Symptoms: Well, my 14th week started with me fainting in the train. What a feeling.
I was standing (I don’t go into a train thinking, I might need to sit because I’m pregnant but from now on I’ll make sure I sit) between two seats and all of a sudden I started seeing A LOT of stars and I knew uh, oh, but I couldn’t sit because no seat was available. And also I’m (until now) not the type of person who says “move it, I need to sit”. So I put my head on my backpack (which I had on the front) and just hoped that I’ll be better seeing I knew I needed to get out of the train in about two minutes.
At my station I then put my backback on and didn’t come far, I just fainted right in the corridor and some mid-20-year old girls caught me and sat me right down and gave me sugared candy. I missed my train station of course and was very thankful for those girls, yet also a bit confused. I told them “that never happened to me before, I’m pregnant” and they said that’s what they assumed :).
I eventually got out of the train, still seeing a lot of stars, looked for a bench and just sat a few minutes before going to work. I worked about 4 hours and then got picked up by my boyfriend, bought something to eat and just relaxed and read on the couch.
Maternity clothes: I’d like to wear my jeans I got from my friend but I feel it’s still to early. So – Belly Bands!
Stretch marks: Nope
Miss anything: Not fainting?
Looking forward to: Our vacation in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands
Best happenings this week: Seeing our baby again!
We made the nuchal scan at 13 weeks, 3 days and everything was ok. We saw the nasal bone and the nuchal thickness was under 1,5 mm, the blood results were good as well. So we’re relieved and very happy.
Movement: Nope, though it was quite active during the sonography.
Gender: I’ve read it might be time to tell already and yup, the OB said she’s assuming a gender but we’ll know for sure in five long weeks
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Sports: Workout on Monday, September and October are quite busy months for me at work (plus I’m gone a lot) so I’m planning on going to the gym regularly again as of mid October. I really need to!
