Along: 12w0d
Size of baby: Sweet Pea is the size of a peach. Peaches are NOT in season, and were hard to find. Luckily, this was a week for belly stickers, so I got to sub this instead. I LOVE my stickers. I found them on Etsy, and there are a ton out there, but these are green and have a little Sweet Pea on them. How perfect!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: We will see officially tomorrow, but I'm sure it's more than 3-4. I have had cravings lately for fresh, healthy food, and I'm hoping that sticks around for quite some time! Chance is doing great on his weight loss (Daniel diet--11 lbs. in 2 weeks!), so we're kind of going in opposite directions.
Maternity Clothes: I had to rule out a pair of pants from the wardrobe this week, and I wore a pair of jeans with the rubber band around the button. I'm starting to dress more in layers to school, but one of my kids blurted out this week, "Mrs. Connell's getting a bump!" Yep... thanks.
Gender: Still feeling girl, and so are most other people we talk to. I wonder if that means we're all right, or we're all in for a big surprise???
Movement: Not yet...
Sleep: I got up twice in one night this week (brutal...), but I slept through the night another time. Score!
What I miss: Long, full nights of sleep; having clothes that hang loose from my midsection
Cravings: Ice water, cold milk, fresh fruit, Chipotle, foods with smooth texture
Symptoms: Sleepy this week, and I got dizzy a few mornings while I was getting ready and had to lay down for a few minutes. What To Expect warned me that was coming, and it did, right on schedule.
Best moment of the week: Driving the new car. We love love love it. It was a big decision, but it's worth it.
Looking forward to: Our doctor's visit tomorrow! We'll hear the heartbeat and get new pictures of Sweet Pea. We're also finally telling the world (and making the blog public!), and I'm really anxious to talk about the baby on facebook and twitter and not remind myself to keep quiet. Hope you enjoy reading all the posts!
