13 weeks

How far along: 13 weeks 

Baby’s size: peach 

Total weight gain / loss: +/-0

Gender: 20 weeks feels like a LONGGG way away!!

Maternity clothes: Regular clothes still fit, but are a little snug - using the rubber band trick as I write this (undetermined whether this is due to the baby or Becca's delicious brownies at work yesterday!).  But my real question is - why on earth doesn't EVERYBODY wear maternity clothes ALL THE TIME???  I mean seriously people, this is how clothes should be made.

Stretch marks: Nope, trying to start being good about using lotion and oils on my belly daily to prevent them as the stretching starts.

Sleep: I've woken up every night this week around 3:30 am to pee.  That's new.  And really annoying.

Loving: Mexican food.  Specifically fajitas.

Loathing: Still eggs.  

Missing: Had to think on this one for awhile about things I can't have, and most I don't really even want.  Then I thought of sushi... mmmm, I could really go for some sushi right now... (RIGHT now)

Movement: Nope

Cravings: Sushi - starting 30 seconds ago.

Aversions: A few things like eggs and hot drinks, but a lot of my aversions are starting to subside with the nausea, so that's been good.

Labor signs: Let's hope not for awhile

Symptoms: I think most of these are covered elsewhere in this post - a few aversions, midnight bathroom calls, high emotions...

Exercise:  So, we're talking a lot about me here.  How are things with you??

Belly button: Belly button-like.

Wedding rings: Loose.

Mood: I MIGHT be a little emotional lately...

Husband: Has been working really hard lately; he's practicing stepping into his new "provider" role in the family.  His military command is done in another month though, and that will alleviate a lot of his time - which we're both really looking forward to!

Can't wait for:  This may sound silly, but I can't wait until I have a full on baby bump.  Being able to SEE this little thing growing inside me and being able to feel the little kicks and punches seems so exciting!

I suppose it’s time to start this - a few weeks later than I did with Adelyn. Sorry sweet baby #2, mama’s a little busier than I was with yo...
