Sunday March 31, 2013
13 weeks!

Week of March 31, 2013! 

How Far Along? 13 weeks

Due Date: October 6, 2013

Total weight gain/loss: As of thursday only 2 :)

Maternity clothes? yes but all I wear is scrubs and sweatpants, I think I may need buy a pair of jeans soon since one of mine got a huge hole in it, since I'd been wearing it non stop for about 2 years...

Stretch Marks? I'm forever going to be scared!

Sleep: I have a bit more energy!!! yay!!! Sleeping at night has been better, though I wake up a lot to pee, and my nose has been really congested which has made my throat hurt and therefore harder to sleep...doesn't pregnancy sound fun :) 

Best moment this week: Reaching my second trimester!!!

Feeling big!

Movement: I can't wait for this!!! I'm getting nervous and really want to buy fetal doppler...

Food cravings: I'm trying to do better about my eating, I fail most days..

Food aversions: Nothing really

Gender: Adam says no, though I'm getting more and more curious...

Labor Signs: none yet thank goodness

Belly Button in or out? never went out with little man...so still in!

What I miss: my throat not hurting and not being so congested

What I am looking forward to: Just getting bigger and feeling the baby move! :)

Size of the Baby:

Baby's now the size of a peach!
Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords...savor this, their nonfunctional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with his head now only one third the size of his body. And intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy -- much more convenient.

Maternity clothes? yes but all I wear is scrubs and sweatpants

Stretch Marks? I'm forever going to be scared!

Sleep: I'm still tired a lot, but it's getting a little better

Best moment this week: WE FINALLY took our news public! We were able to tell Adam's parents when they came up for the day to visit yesterday!!! We had Lincoln wear his big brother to be shirt and I swear Adam's mom's reaction was the best. I love that women for her pure unaffected emotions. She is so sweet and made me feel so loved! It was the best! then we decided since I was almost done with my first trimester that we could share our news with all of our other friends and take the news pubic! 

Big Belly!

Movement: I can't wait for this!!! 

Food cravings: nothing really this week..

Food aversions: none that i can think of. 

Gender: Adam says no!

Labor Signs: none yet thank goodness

Belly Button in or out? never went out with little man...so still in!

What I miss: I've been a little depressed this week, so feeling happy and excited. I think it's the hormones, Adam being gone and being so tired...not a good combo. And I miss by BFF Nikki!

What I am looking forward to: Ending my first trimester!

Size of the Baby:

Baby's now the size of a plum!As you move into the second trimester, baby shifts into the growth and maturation stage. After weeks in the critical development stage, almost all of her systems are fully formed

Size of the Baby:

Baby's now the size of a lime!Your fetus currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and has skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through it. But fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds, and nail beds are forming -- setting up a significantly more attractive future. 

10 Weeks Baby #2

Week of March 10, 2013! :)

How Far Along? 10 Weeks

10 week and clearly exhausted!

Due Date: After my doctor appointment this week my due date is 10/6/13

Total weight gain/loss: 0

Maternity clothes? I wear my maternity jeans but everything else is my "fat clothes"

Stretch Marks? I'm forever going to be scared!

Sleep: I sleep like crap! I need to see if I can take anything?

Best moment this week: Seeing our sweet bean on the ultrasound!! At my appointment they had my LMP wrong and I didn't want to correct them since I knew they would do an u/s. They told me I was close to 11.5 weeks and I said not a chance because I was here in January and they told me I wasn't preggo. So the doc said she would have to do an u/s for "dating" and I was completely fine with that :) It was so amazing to see the little bean move around on the screen. I just wish I could have heard a heartbeat!!! But the u/s said I was 9 weeks 4 days instead of 9 weeks 2. So my due date was moved up a smige. I'm ok with that bc I really want this baby and Lincoln to have different birthdays. Lincoln was quite the trooper during the appointment too considering it was nap time!!!! 

We also told my parents on friday. It was nice to get it out there. Though i was really disappointed that my plan didn't work out. I ordered this shirt on etsy that said "cutest big brother to be" I was going to have him wear it but the lady lied to me and didnt ship it in time so I still don't have it. So i wasn't able to have lincoln wear it to tell them, but we are telling adam's parents in person in a few weeks and that's how I will do it for them :) soooo at least he will get some good use out of it! :)

Movement: I can't wait for this!!! 

Food cravings: CHEEEEEESSEEEEEEEEEE, all types. Cheese pizza, but mainly cheddar cheese

Food aversions: None yet

ms fatty

Gender: Adam says we won't be finding out

Labor Signs: none yet thank goodness

Belly Button in or out? never went out with little man...so still in!

What I miss: Not feeling so bloated, nauseated and having headaches all the time.

What I am looking forward to: feeling more pregnant instead of fat!

Size of the Baby:

Baby's now the size of a prune!With bones and cartilage starting to form and vital organs beginning to function, baby is making major progress. Body length will almost double in the next three weeks, and arm joints are now working. (Soon, legs will start working too.)
