13 weeks....Hello Second Trimester!

How far along? 13 weeks


Total weight gain: 5 lbs.  (obviously feeling better and able to eat)  Although...compared to my first pregnancy..doing MUCH better on weight.  5lbs for the first trimester with this one...15 with my daughter.

Maternity clothes? Same as before....using them for the most part...but still trying to hold on to what is left of my "non-maternity" wardrobe.

Sleep: horrible....which doesn't say anything good about the next 6 months.
Cravings: never got my donuts...but honestly right now..fresh fruit!  I can not get enough fresh strawberries.

Best moment this week:  Well...this week has definately had it's ups and downs.  I have to say I actually have two best moments.  One...we finally heard the baby's heartbeat....and I melted.    The second doesn't come from the pregnancy...it comes from my 2 year old.  I got a random kiss and an "I love you" just for the heck of it.  Love that girl!!!
Movement: Sometimes...but nothing consistent.

Gender: I still think it's another girl...but we won't find out until the end of May/beginning of June.

Labor Signs: None!!!

Belly Button in or out? Still very much in although I swear my belly button is getting bigger.  Like...I just may be able to fit a nickel in it.

What I miss: My breath.  I remember being easily out of breath in the beginning of my pregnancy with Isabella and this one is no different in that regard.

Weekly Wisdom: The ailments that come along with pregnancy can really stink, but the outcome is definately worth it.

Milestones: I made it to the 2nd TRIMESTER!!!!!! Woooo Hooo!!!!

Favorite Moments: When I'm driving to work and I remember that I'm not alone.  And when my mom rubs my ever growing belly and says "Hi baby...Gram loves you!"
 
(no pictures this week...again.....not much of a difference...really.  It seems as though I've leveled out for now.)
