Unfortunately I did not take a picture every week with Grant. It is my goal to do so with this lil' fish and on the weeks I have a comparison I will post that.
How Far Along: 13 Weeks (Good Bye 1st Trimester, hello blissful, happy, not nauseous and pukey 2nd trimester? Please!!!)
Baby's Size: Peach Average size: 2.9 inches, 0.81 oz.
Teeth and vocal cords are appearing...
Total Weight Gain:
Home scale: Down 3.2 lbs
Doctor’s scale: No measurement this week
Maternity Clothes: Nope, not yet...
Baby's Movement: Still none
Food Cravings: I took care of that pizza craving but it really didn't taste as good as I had envisioned. Otherwise, nothing to really speak of this week as far as other cravings go but I have been starting to think about eating at Blanck's more and more. I want to wait until I feel 100% though because I don't want to waste a good steak, french fried lobster, and cheesy hash browns. :)
Food Aversions: Still quite a bit but the thing that sticks out to me is sweets. If you know me, you know I like my candy/sweets and several times when given the option this week I have passed up sweet treats.
Sleep: Like a baby but back to being up every night for the bathroom... just once and then I fall right back asleep.
Symptoms: This week has been riddled with heartburn, headaches, and nausea usually reserved to the afternoons and evenings. It also seems the fatigue has been back with a vengeance this week. And don't forget the crazy dreams!
Best Moment(s) This Week: As a family we enjoyed a night away for a friend's wedding. In some ways I feel like we need to cram as much in with our time left as a family of three because I know the dynamic will change greatly after April.
What I Miss: Hasn't changed... feeling like a normal, awake, healthy human being.
What I Am Looking Forward To: Feeling caught up around the house. Matt has been wonderful with helping out but it is just not the same as some of the stuff I do versus the bare necessessities. A housekeeper and a cook would be amazing right now :) The desire to nest and sort Grant's clothes and start moving furniture is there but the motivation and energy absolutely are not.
What's Different This Time: Still the biggest difference has been how I feel. I am hoping my 2nd trimester is as blissful with this one as it was with Grant.
