Bump Day Baby #2 - Week 15

• Baby is the size of an orange
• Baby's legs now out measure their arms
• I have gained a total of 5 pounds and the Doc is happy with that. I'm actually surprised it's not more because I feel like I have been eating like crap. I'm trying so hard to eat more veggies...but when cheese curds or ice cream sound better, I go for that! 
• I have 2 pairs of pants I can still button normally for work otherwise everything is being held up by a hair elastic and the belly band. I have busted out and worn some maternity clothes.
• Still no stretch marks. I did have some more of a mole removed on my stomach 1.5 weeks ago since it tested positive for pre-cancerous cells so they wanted to remove more just to be sure...curious how that will look as my stomach gets bigger.
• No feeling of movement..can't wait though!
• Have had lots of cramping and sharp pains. Doc says normal since my body already knows what to do, it also got bigger faster which means pelvis is opening up and belly/uterus is shifting more since there is the room from already expanding. When I sit for long periods of time...I notice these pains after getting up. Doc isn't worried so I'm not. She said that pain will end soon.
• Hips have already shifted. they are sitting so high right now.
• Craving still pickles, mac and cheese and ice cream. Still eating lots of peanut butter. Love carbs like crazy.
• Once again...we will not find out the gender (the more I announce it...the more I feel like I can't change my mind). Scheduled our ultrasound in 5 weeks...just need to stay strong and then the best surprise will be given to us in July.
• Sleeping OK. Have crazy nightmares about miscarriages or death in general. I hate it.
• Heard a beautiful heartbeat of 161 at my doc appt yesterday!
• If Turner sees me changing, he sees my growing belly and says 'baby'. We also borrowed a doll from a friend for a party we attended and now Turner plays with it until we return it...which then we will get him his own. He does great with it...for the most part.
• Daycare told me that Turner does great with the baby there. He is very gentle with him and even plays with him (he is 7 months old). She even posted this photo and said they were giggling at each other...melted my heart! Makes me rest assured he is going to be a great big brother.
