12 weeks

How far along: 12 weeks

Baby’s size: a large plum


Total weight gain / loss: still down, but just a pound or two now

Gender: Ahhhh - how will I wait another 2 months??  How do some people wait 9?!?!?

Maternity clothes: Momma stocked me up on a few great staples!  Haven't had to wear them yet, but I know they're there when I need them.  :)

Stretch marks: Nope

Sleep: Sleeping fine, having some weird dreams though. You might be in them - lots with friends/acquaintances (and people who would think I'm a total creeper for having a dream about them who I don't know very well lol!) 

Loving: Knowing that my baby can feel it when I touch my belly even though I can't feel him/her kick back yet.  :)  Oh - and the snow days have been pretty fantastic too - loving the week and half off work!

Loathing: Not really sure I have anything here this week.

Missing: Nothing really here either - no major events recently to make me wish I could drink with everybody else, and there's not much else I can think of that I'm missing right now.

Movement: Nada

Cravings: Nothing crazy.  Water.

Aversions: Still not a big fan of eggs, but they're moving their way back into my vocabulary without me having to throw up at just the thought of them.

Labor signs: No no no no nooooo

Symptoms: Nausea seems to have subsided already - yay!  Just a few little bouta here and there, but nothing like before when I was nauseous all day every day. Had my first dizzy spell yesterday, which I read is normal once I get close to the 2nd trimester and my body works overtime to get my blood TO the baby, which effectively slows it down in returning to me - often causing dizziness.  I just sat down for a minute or two and was fine again.  :)


Exercise:  Was super sick with a sinus infection last week, which halted the workouts I had finally got back on track with the week before (2 mile runs).  Now we had the blizzard of the century and I don't know when there will be a clear path/sidewalk for a run for awhile! I'll have to brainstorm on alternatives!

Belly button: Same old same old

Wedding rings: Loose

Mood: Great actually!  Occasionally tearing up at happy/sad things more than usual, but overall feeling very happy.  Oh, except during my blizzard binge watching of Walking Dead when I thought Glenn died.  I was VERY emotional and NOT happy then.

Husband: Loved seeing his little baby on the ultrasound today!  He's been insistent that we have a little boy, but today declared the profile looked a little "girly."  ;)

Can't wait for:  Announcing to the world that I'm pregnant after I get to tell Grandma Ann this weekend - woohoo!!
