15th Week Journal...

How far along? 15wks today
Total weight gain/loss: I think I gained a pound last week from vacation - I didn't eat a lot, but I think all the walking we did helped a great deal
TP Test: 8 1/2 squares of toilet paper
Maternity Clothes: Finally broken down while on vacation and got some maternity clothes. My clothes still fit but I hated feeling like I was stuffed in like a sausage. Got some sweaters, shirts & some pants... I made sure that they'll last more than a couple months so I don't have to go do this multiple times. But let me just tell you - although I may not fit 100% into maternity clothes, they are much more comfortable!
"Morning" Sickness: I've fallen prey to the 2nd Trimester sickness - I got sick twice while on vacation and the gag reflex is still prevelant. At least I don't feel nauseous.
Stretch marks? No new ones
Sleep: the first few nights of vacation was nice but then my body got used to the bed and decided to not be comfortable. I have realized that the past couple of nights, I'm not waking up on my back, so maybe my body is becoming used to this whole side-sleeping thing.
Best moment this week: Without a doubt - spending time alone with Dan on vacation! We had the best vacation (we're comparing it to our honeymoon). We saw every inch of the Cape
Worst moment this week: Getting sick in the bathroom at a bar, trying not to touch anything...but I made myself feel better that the Saints were winning and that Harry frequents the bar I puked in. :)
Concerns/Fears: Is a high speed ferry from hell and a moped ride safe?
Movement: Dan asked me this weekend if I have started to feel anything, and honestly I don't know. I feel all sorts of things but I don't know if it's baby movement. It mainly feels like my body moving & stretching rather than "flutters". My gut tells me that I'll know when it's a real flutter
Food cravings: While on vacation, I did yearn for a hot fudge sundae and was happy with myself that I only got one on our last night.
Gender prediction: I'm not sure
Labor Signs: N/A
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On - a bit loose even
Weekly Wisdom:
Milestones:
Vacation with Dan - being able to spend time just the two of us whether it was driving around, walking on the beach, getting up for the sunrise, kicking my arse in minigolf, or watching the janitor with his pink sweater pretend to be a doctor. Sorry that's an inside joke from our dinner on Friday night. Oh, I also drove by Harry Connick Jr's house in Chatham so that was a HUGE thing for me.

Dan & I have decided we're moving to Chatham - it's too nice not to. He's going to work at the bike shop and I'll work at the Old Harbor Cafe. Afterall, I did work in a donut shop in high school so I have the experience!

A girl can dream, can't she...

WOW! You two really have the "romance" thing in high-gear. Sounds nice, though. And yes, I can see Dan tinkering around in a bike shop - maybe he'll even grow his hair into a mullet again!
Enjoy!
Love, mil
