15 Week Bumpdate!

 I can't believe another week has already passed (:
I know, I know...enjoy the pregnancy. But I REALLY want to be at the 20 week mark! We found out last week that the little bean is a girl! But in the midst of video chatting our families, Ryan was on his phone googling how often babies "switch" and how many 14 week ultrasounds are wrong. So now I am super paranoid that "she" will turn into a "he".
This is funny because we both wanted a boy, but once I found out she was a girl, I REALLY want a girl. The doctor scheduled my 20 week appointment during my 19th week though, so I have less than a month to wait for confirmation.
Besides that, the pregnancy is feeling more real and real every day. I can't believe I still have 25 weeks left if she decides to stay in there until 40 weeks. I worked on my baby registry last week which only made me want to buy everything immediately and set up her room!
In bump news - well, it's still really not there. I think this was scaring me a little bit because I was worried she isn't growing as fast as she should. You can take a look:

I guess it may have grown a smidge...I think what looks like it IS sticking out more it below the little bump. It seems to be flatter and leaning out more. Everyone keeps saying "Oh just wait, it will appear overnight". I think it would be hilarious if all of a sudden one week my pictures are vastly different.
What is EXCELLENT news is that I didn't gain any weight this week. I typed in my weight gain last week into a pregnancy weight tracker and it basically said "Woah, fatty...slow down...". I'm not really sure how that is possible, but considering I have no bump, I probably shouldn't be gaining a pound a week. I made an effort to try some mild exercise again and focus on eating healthier (less carbs). I've been on a pizza/pasta/bread overload while battling the nausea. This week I tried to eat more plain veggies and fruits.
We have another appointment this afternoon! At my last appointment, my doctor told me if I was nice enough to him, he might to try sneak a peak at the gender. Since we went off base last week and did it, I would love him to confirm that she is a girl. We will see....
