My baby bump at 13 weeks from the side:
And from the front:
Total Weight Gain: Lost 7 lbs so far. (I lost another .5 lbs this week…hopefully I will start going the other way now.)
Maternity Clothes: Mostly all maternity bottoms. I have worn a couple of maternity shirts, but just because I have them and they are cute.
Sleep: I sleep pretty well at night, but most days I still wake up tired. That could be because I need to go to bed earlier, but since I have gotten some of my energy back I find myself staying up later.
Movement: I haven’t felt anything yet, but I can’t wait until I can feel those first little flutters.
Boy or Girl? Still don’t know, but I can’t wait to find out.
Food Cravings: This past week, I have really wanted an Icee, but I still haven’t gotten one. I also really want a juicy, crispy apple, but since it isn’t apple season, none of the grocery stores have good ones. I am so ready to go apple picking this fall.
Food Aversions: Absolutely nothing. I am a normal person again!!!
What I Miss: Nothing…I am loving being pregnant right now!
Size of Baby: Peach (about 3 inches)
Baby’s Development: Baby’s body is growing rapidly to catch up to the head. Baby’s head is now about half the size of its body. Baby’s intestines have started moving to their permanent place in baby’s abdomen. Over the past week, baby’s vocal chords have started to develop.
Best Part of this Week: Getting to hear our little sprout’s heartbeat at my 12 week appointment.
What I’m Looking Forward To: Being at the beach! Although I guess that doesn’t really count since I am at the beach right now!
