2nd trimester-Week 13

Another week has flown by and we are officially in the 2nd trimester!!! We have shared the news with most of our friends and family at this point, but have yet to make it "Facebook Official".


This week Baby G is the size of a peach and now has the ability to suck his/her thumb. The bones are continuing to form and get stronger. I have had a little nausea in the morning but haven't been sick for several days. Knock on wood!

I had to travel to Cleveland this week for a couple days to lead a training. I stumbled across a super cute little bakery with GIANT cupcakes and couldn't help myself.  Once I got back to my hotel room (right after dinner), I climbed in bed and enjoyed a sweet treat.

I was unable to get through even half but it was delicious and I intend to finish it soon!!!

How far along? 13 weeks

Total weight gain: I haven't checked....probably a few pounds with all the Easter candy in the house.

Maternity clothes? I unpacked my maternity clothes and have purchased a few new things. I definitely feel more comfortable with the extra room.

Stretch marks? nope

Sleep:  Waking up 3-4 a night to pee....but overall, sleeping well.

Best moment this week: Seeing Nick and Carli after traveling overnight.

Miss Anything? Really wanted to order a glass of wine with dinner in Cleveland.  

Movement:  not yet

Food cravings:  Nothing specific....

Anything making you queasy or sick:  I think I may need to change my prenatal vitamins. I think that could be the culprit.

Gender:  feeling a boy this week

Labor Signs:  Lord no!

Symptoms: little baby bump

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off?  On 

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and thankful.

Looking forward to: Finding out the gender this weekend!! Then telling everyone, especially Carli.
