Everything all in one

So, yeah, I'm pregnant. I'm mostly doing this blog for me but also for anyone who might care.


How far along?: 13 weeks

Weight gain: I went from 122 at the very beginning to 117 to 121 now. Is that a loss of 1 lb or kind of a gain of 4? I don't know but those are the facts

Baby (According to app): Almost 3 inches long

Gender: I have been convinced since I found out that it was a boy. The more time that goes by, I'm starting to think it may be a girl. I don't know!

Showing: My boobs are! My belly has pooched out a bit but it looks more like I ate 4 slices of pizza and not like I'm growing a human inside me.

Belly button in or out?: very in
Stretch Marks: No but I feel like I'm eventually going to get them on my chest.

Movement: None yet. Still too early.

Energy: The one thing I never knew about pregnancy was how INCREDIBLY tired it makes you. If I don't have a nap every day, I feel like a zombie. I've never been one for much caffeine, even less now, so I just suffer through it. I do feel a bit more energetic than I was a few weeks ago but it's still a bit tiring to just be alive! 

Sleep: I sleep fine. Hard for me to sleep in but I fall asleep quickly and stay asleep until the sun comes up. I get more sleep when Clint is gone because I can move however I want without worrying about waking him up.

Mood: Feeling pretty good.

Cravings: At the beginning it was pineapple but now it's clementines. All fruit really. And juice. I have aversions to cooked seafood (though I want to eat all the raw sushi forever) and poultry. I eat mostly vegetarian. The only meat I want is red meat but I don't eat it often because I have to eat steaks well done while pregnant. Myeh. Oh, and I absolutely cannot eat fried food without vomiting. This is probably a good thing! The smell of fried food (which is normally my weakness) nauseates me. Yay?

Best moment this week: It was pretty cool seeing my belly pooch out a bit. Made it feel like things are progressing.

Miss anything?: Having more options for food. 

More fun facts

  • When we went in for our first ultrasound, I was a month ahead of what I thought I was. This is what happens when you don't keep up with dates.
  • I found out on my way to Happy Hour to meet Natalie and Anitha. Needless to say, I drank water.
  • Probable DOC was Halloween so we both looked like this 


Anyway, I'm bored of writing for right now. Off to meet Natalie for lunch.
