How far along are you? 13 weeks
How I’m feeling: More energetic but having headaches. No more nausea! Super dizzy.
Total weight gain: Haven’t weighed myself since the last doctor’s visit
How big is baby? We have ourselves a little Georgia Peach
Maternity clothes: Tried some on and they looked weird – pants were too long and the shirts were tight in the arms. I am going to have to look at other places than Motherhood Maternity Outlet.
Sleep: Usually asleep by 9:30 and up before 5:30. Wake up 2 times a night to go to the bathroom.
Best moment this week: One of my students rubbing my stomach and telling me they know it will be a healthy baby.
Movement: Again – I have so much gas moving around I don’t know if I will ever feel the baby when it is a possibility.
Food cravings: Watermelon, calzone two days in a row – I am not as hungry as I have been.
Food aversions: Me and OJ are on the outs… raw meat is still giving me the willies, so bad that I can’t cook it to eat it.
Labor signs: Thankfully no – just a tiny bit of cramping which the books say is round ligament pain – or uterine growth.
Belly button in or out: Still the same ole innie.
What I miss: Being able to put on anything in my closet.
What I’m looking forward to: Hearing the heartbeat next week! Finishing out my first trimester and moving in to my second.
Randoms: My sense of smell could make me a superhero. It is almost annoying because I smell EVERYTHING and it is all very intense. While I am thankful the random smells aren’t making me nauseous – I am getting headaches from those too. ESP cigarette smoke (which it seems finds me no matter where I am). Started exercising daily and I am thinking that is where a lot of energy is coming from.

you should check out Zulily’s website! I got a lot of cute maternity clothes from there and Target is really stepping it up!

Old Navy has the best maternity leggings ever!! And I agree, Target is good too! And Pink Blush maternity online is one of my faves 🙂

Look at that tiny bump!! I loved writing my weekly updates when I was pregnant with Sam, now I’ll enjoy reading yours! December babies are super sweet! 😉
Old Navy and Gap were my favorite stores for maternity, but truthfully I wore a lot of maxis and stretchy tanks (mossimo at target were my fave) during the summer months and I didn’t have to worry about maternity until the fall.

When I was pregnant with both my girls I could not drink OJ, but with my son, I couldn’t get enough. Don’t know if there is a correlation or not. 🙂

Heard baby’s heartbeat today – wait til you hear it’s amazing!!!
I’m having headaches and dizziness too. Midwife said it could be allergies (doubt it) but to drink MORE water – as in 10 cups a day!!! and that should help. We’ll see!
