13 Weeks

How far along: 13 Weeks 5 days



Total Weight Gain/Loss: Not sure until I make it back to the Dr's office


Maternity Clothes:  Still using some of my regular pants unzipped and some maternity. I also wore a few maternity shirts that were smaller.


Stretch Marks: Same old stetchies


Sleep: Ehhh, ok as long as I take my unisom but allergy season is here and it's left me not being able to breathe. I woke up one night gasping when I was having a dream that I was swimming and the water kept coming over my head. Turns out my nose was completely stopped up and I was trying to breathe thru my mouth.


Movement: I don't think so but every now and then it feels like the faintest tap on the inside. (It feels differnt than gas) I'd like to think it's baby but I really don't know.


Food Cravings/Aversions: Hmmm.... I've had a lot of grape and orange juice. I had spinich dip and then some ice cream for breakfast Sunday. I wanted catfish out of nowhere today so yeah I would say so but most of the time they are random and if I don't eat it soon after thinking about it then I move on to something else. Maybe that is just the fat girl in me?


Gender: Not sure but I'm starting to get a little impatient and I think I change my mind from day to day about the gender.


Belly Button In or Out: In


What I Miss: This isn't pregnancy related but this week I miss being able to go thru the day without sneezing 30 times and my eyes staying all watery and red.


What I am Looking Forward To: I have an appointment coming up on the 30th and I love getting to hear the heartbeat and I should be a pro at peeing in a cup by the time this is all said and done which I'm not looking forward to that part but I guess it's an even trade.


Weekly Wisdom: Pee regularly when you are constantly sneezing and coughing, your pants will thank you. I laughed at my mom for always looking for a bathroom and now I will pay.


Best Moment This Week: Making it to the 2nd Trimester! It was nice to go visit my mom this weekend. I can't say a lot has happened this week other than work related and I haven't come to the conclusion on if it's good or bad yet. I think I've had my fill of that place though. Who wants to hire a pregnant cosmetologist/customer service rep?



Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords... savor this, their non-functional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with a head now only one third the size of the body. Intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy. (Much more convenient.)
