12 Weeks

Written on 8.2.13



How far along? 12 weeks. Baby is the size of a peach! 

Total weight gain: 1 pound. Technically 1.6, but nurse Mary Jane was nice enough to round down. I did have breakfast. And clothes on.

Maternity Clothes: Nada.

Stretch Marks: No.

Sleep: Benadryl. Bathroom breaks. That about sums it up. 

Best Moment this Week: Seeing Sunburst kicking on the ultrasound.

Miss anything? Not terribly.

Movement: Yes and no. As of this week, Sunburst is flipping, but nothing I can feel just yet.

Food Cravings: Leggo my Eggo. Seriously. Leggo.

Anything making you queasy or sick:The smell of peanut butter. Odd, because I can eat it, but take that top off the jar, cue my exit. Gag.

Exercise: Still getting out there. Slow and steady wins the race. That's my new motto.

Gender: We should find out early September at our 18 week appointment. That doesn't seem too far away!

Labor signs:No thank you.

Symptoms: I did not know what sciatic nerve pain was. Now I do. Ouch. Knowledge does not always equal power. Remember that, kids.

Most looking forward to: End of the first trimester.
