baby’s size: mango
how I’m feeling: Great!
best moment this week: Feeling movement pretty consistently! I find myself sitting perfectly still at times to catch every movement. It’s just as exciting the second time around!
what I’m looking forward to: Our anatomy scan is tomorrow! I can’t wait to see out little one!
baby’s size: sweet potato
how I’m feeling: Pretty good, aside from crazy pregnancy dreams keeping me from getting a truly restful night’s sleep.
best moment this week: Feeling movement for the first time! Nothing consistent or very strong yet, but I have felt flutters a few times over the past week!
what I’m looking forward to: We are only one week away from our anatomy scan! I can’t wait to see our little one again!
baby’s size: onion (approximately 5.1 inches long!)
how I’m feeling: I am back to being tired all the time, but maybe that has more to do with keeping up with a toddler.
best moment this week: Thanksgiving! It was nice to have a few days off to see family and spend some extra time with Cullen.
what I’m looking forward to: Our anatomy scan is a little over two weeks away! And we are trying to get ready for Christmas. Not much decorating going on at our house, but Christmas shopping has begun and Holiday parties are starting!
baby’s size: avocado
how I’m feeling: Pretty good. I feel like a normal person and aside from my baby bump, I hardly feel pregnant.
best moment this week: It has been a pretty crazy week. We are under contract on a new house and are trying to sell our house. We spent last weekend getting our house ready to put on the market. While those two days were more than exhausting for this pregnant lady, it feels good to be one step closer to moving closer work and church.
what I’m looking forward to: Our anatomy scan is less than three weeks away! I can’t wait to see this little one!
baby’s size: navel orange
how I’m feeling: My nausea has decided to come back. I thought since I had made it into the second trimester and the queasiness I had in the first trimester had disappeared that I was in the clear. It turns out my body has other plans. I still haven’t actually gotten sick, but nothing sounds good when it’s time to eat and I get full really fast. I hope this is gone (or at least eases up for a day) come Thanksgiving.
best moment this week: I had another appointment with the doctor this week. I love hearing that little heartbeat and it was perfect at about 156!
what I’m looking forward to: Thanksgiving, decorating for Christmas, and our anatomy scan is scheduled for a week before Christmas. We have a lot to look forward to through the rest of the year!
baby’s size: lemon
how I’m feeling: Cullen had a cold over the weekend and shared with me. Being pregnant with a cold is not much fun. They last longer and there is not much I can take for it. Hopefully it won’t last too much longer, but for now, I’ll keep a box of Kleenex in arms reach.
best moment this week: Pregnancy-wise, it was a pretty boring week. But since Cullen was sick on Friday, I got to stay home from work and snuggle with him all day. I hate that he was sick, but snuggles like that are getting more rare, so I take advantage when I can!
what I’m looking forward to: My next appointment is on Monday. I can’t wait to hear that little heartbeat again!
baby’s size: peach
how I’m feeling: Large! I know I’m not really, but I feel pretty big for only being 13 weeks. I’m already wearing only maternity bottoms; I haven’t been able to button my regular pants for over a month. Despite my protruding tummy, I have lost a little weight so far. I did the same with Cullen in the first trimester; I think it has to do with cutting out coffee/soda/tea, drinking a ton of water, and getting full a lot faster. Other than than the acne that I don’t remember having the first time around, I feel great! The little bit of queasiness that I had is gone and I’m starting to get some of my energy back.
best moment this week: Finally telling the world!
what I’m looking forward to: The second trimester and more energy!
