Week 15

Today begins my 15th week of pregnancy.  I'm two weeks into my second trimester.  At this point, Baby Van Heest is about 4 inches long and the size of an apple.  I haven't really felt any movements yet, at least not anything I can identify as movement.  I should be really feeling things around 16-20 weeks, so I'm paying more attention to my belly to try and distinguish movements from other tummy rumblings. I feel gigantic because none of my clothes fit anymore!  But in reality I've only gained 3 pounds so far.  The second trimester is supposed to be the easiest one, and so far that has been the case.  I'm not nearly as tired as I was a few weeks ago, and don't really feel sick at all.  While I'm glad for the reprieve from all the pregnancy symptoms, it feels a little weird to not really "feel" pregnant anymore.  Besides the belly I seem to be growing.  Even if I don't feel pregnant, it's becoming more and more obvious to the outside world that I am!  My next doctor appointment is next Monday, June 6th, just a general 16 week check-up.
