15th Week of Pregnancy: Clumsy and Forgetful?

"Add Comments or Questions"
Clothes beginning to feel a little tight? Feeling less than graceful and a little fuzzy-headed? These are all normal symptoms of pregnancy.


Well, I am 15 weeks now and still feeling pretty tired and still having morning sickness or shall I say morning, noon and night sickness. This little baby is about the size of an apple or orange now. tomorrow I am going to try out the intelligender test which is about 90% accurate. I am dying to know if this is a boy or girl. I feel much worse with this pregnancy than I did with Ethan, but I still think it is a boy. Of course no matter what the results are, I am not going to rush out and buy any gender specific clothes or paint the nursery pink or blue. There are testimonials that the test has been wrong,b ut it is kinda fun to think you know. So more on that tomorrow:)

Ethan turned 1 1/2 this weekend and I just can't believe it. I think he is right on track with all his milestones, but his 18 month well visit is tomorrow so we will see what his doctor thinks. He is just such a good little boy and so sweet. He is going to be a great big brother although every time I ask him if he is excited for a new baby brother or sister, he shakes his head no...pretty emphatically:) Of course he doesn't want to lose his position as king of the household! Who would???


All About Baby

At week 15, your baby-to-be stretches her limbs and bends at her elbows. She's getting big enough that you can feel many of these movements.

This week your baby is roughly the size of a small apple or orange. Her bones are continuing to grow and lengthen. While she looks more like a baby, her skin is still thin and translucent with her veins visible.

Your baby is also beginning to grow lanugo, a very fine hair. It will keep growing until around the 26th gestational week of pregnancy (that's week 28 of your pregnancy).
How Big Is Baby?
