15 weeks - Happy Thanksgiving!

 

your baby's the size of a navel orange!

The average fetus at 15 weeks weighs 2.5 ounces and measures 4 inches -- and his proportions are becoming even more normal, since his legs now outmeasure his arms. 

 

your baby at 15 weeks

• You probably can't feel it yet, but she's squirming a ton!
• She might even be hiccuping in there.
• She's making lots of progress: her joints and limbs can all move now.

 

  

We're 15 weeks now and it feels like time is starting to move faster! We've been busy getting ready for Thanksgiving and all of the family we will get to see. (Ahem, I've been busy on little "projects" that just have to be completed before I see anyone again.) We have a fun little gender reveal surprise we made that we are going to hand out at Thanksgiving - can you believe we are only 9 days away from finding out the gender!? We've also been soaking up, literally SOAKING, this awesome winter weather. Hey, Jack! You take what you can get in this part of the world! Darrin has built us THREE fires just this week!!! :) They're beautiful!

 

*LOVE*

As for pregnancy updates:

We're now up a good 4.5 lbs and that doesn't seem to be going back down any! :) 

My headaches are back and have brought with them some stuffiness and a heavy head. It may just be the weather, though. It is quite the challenge finding medicine I'm allowed to take right now!

My energy level is up some which is great, because I've got lots on my to-do list. 

 

Here we are:

 

Happy Thanksgiving!!
Love,

The Bartons
