Total weight gain: 5ish pounds
Maternity clothes: Yep. Just went on a maternity clothes shopping spree at Old Navy, courtesy of my mom.
Sleep: I'm doing lots of it, including napping with Camden most days. I figure I better take advantage of this now while I can. It won't last much longer, I know!
Cravings: Subs and sandwiches. I still eat them-- I just heat up the lunch meat.
Best moment this week: Getting out of town for a night with my mom & sister for a girls' weekend. The intent of our trip was to hit up a baby/toddler consignment fair in Wilmington. The "fair" (more like a small store with a few, really old looking items) was a bust, but we still had a great time.
Movement: I think I've felt a few flutters, but nothing strong enough that I've been 100% sure it was courtesy of the baby yet.
Gender: I think boy. We'll find out on March 29th.
Labor signs: No, thank goodness.
Bellybutton in or out: Still in and normal looking for now.
What I miss: Nothing really. Well, maybe a glass of wine sitting on the patio in the evenings.
What I am looking forward to: Anatomy scan in a few weeks!
Milestones: Is there a 15-16 week milestone? Hmm. Not that I'm aware of.
Okay, so I mentioned in my last "survey" post that I felt like I was in the bloated phase where I looked like I had just gone on a Dunkin' Donuts binge instead of baking a human being. I was thinking that phase had passed and that I was looking undeniably pregnant, and then my neighbor confirmed that for me in a not-so-flattering way today. For the record, I've never discussed my pregnancy with him, so he took the risk of "guessing" that I'm pregnant today (a notoriously risky move with women). And here's what he said:
"So you're expecting?" -Neighbor
"Yep! I am." - Me
"Is it twins? Or triplets?"- Neighbor
SERIOUSLY. I've heard countless pregnant women recount stories like these in the past but it had never happened to me until today! Awesome. My response? I told him I was actually having quads.
So, I figured taking this week's picture today, in the very outfit that prompted the twin/triplet question, would be fitting. Without further ado, here is the belly in question:

You have definitely grown! :) But you don't look like you're expecting twins or triplets. I looked like that at 4 weeks. lol. I have been staying out of the public eye, and I can only imagine the comments I'm going to get when I finally go back to church. I've had a hard time convincing random people I don't even know (who can obviously tell I'm pregnant) that I'm not pregnant with more than one baby. I hear way too many "Well, my cousin was pregnant with twins and they missed the twin in like 5 ultrasounds and didn't find it until 32 weeks!" stories.
I'm like "Seriously, they were specifically searching to make sure there was only one baby. SO THERE IS ONLY ONE BABY."
People can't help it though. I can seriously pass for 6 months pregnant and I am only 10 weeks. So I try to forgive them.
I can't believe you are so close to finding out if it's a boy or girl! How exciting. And I think you look great.
Will ur Momma buy me maternity clothes too?
You look wonderful!

There are some vets, like human doctors, that do not believe in or will they suggest using acupuncture. A person can be themselves with their animals and not fear for rejection. A strong recall is equally important in the pool area when you want your dog to come to you.
