14 weeks today

Had my second doctors aptmt today,at 14 weeks...its always exciting to hear the heartbeat of your tiny one when you havnt felt much movement yet.

i have felt some butterflies,but im not quite sure yet(: could be the baby,could be gas(: its should happen soon though....i think i started feeling mckinley kick around 16 weeks,and they say you usually feel the second baby sooner,since you know what to expect(: yay!im looking forward to it,and so is josh...he said to me the other day that he couldnt wait till he could feel the baby kick...i think thatll make it more real for him since see hasnt gotten to enjoy any of the sickness that has made it so real to me.(:

My belly is startin to stick out,and im havin to start wearing maternity clothes a little now,although they are way to big.sweats are pretty much my best friend right now!

im still running and weight lifting,and excited that i can still run 3 miles at a time no problem(other than bathroom breaks!)cant wait for the snow to melt so i can be outside and get more active...

also,Mckinley thinks she has a baby in her tummy too...its pretty funny(:


"How big is your baby?
Your baby is now over 4 inches long and weighs just a little less than 2 ounces.*

What is happening with your baby?
Your baby is continuing to grow and mature at this point. Your baby’s arms are going to begin to lengthen and be more proportioned to the rest of the body. The liver is beginning to produce bile, while the spleen is beginning to produce red blood cells.
The development of your baby’s brain enables him/her to use his/her facial muscles to grimace, frown, and squint. He/she may even be sucking his/her thumb. Because you have begun the second trimester and most of the critical development has been completed, the chance of miscarriage decreases.*"
