13 weeks

How far along are you? 

13 weeks

How big is Baby? 

Baby K is as big as a peach this week. He/She now has vocal cords, teeth buds and fingerprints!

Weight Gain?  

Still haven't bought a scale. I've felt the same over the past few weeks though.

 Gender? 

We will find out in 3 1/2 weeks! I am SO excited and think about it all the time. Will has two brothers and I have two brothers, so I think it's time for a girl in the family!

Maternity Clothes? 

Not really. My mom has bought me several things from Ross, but I haven't worn them yet. My pants are still too tight to button. I've been wearing more flowy shirts because my "bump" looks more like a "pooch."

Stretch Marks? 

Not yet. Any recommendations for cream?

 Sleep? 

Sleep has been gradually getting worse. (Although, it's still not bad at all.) I wake up every night, without fail between 1:30-2:30 to go to the bathroom. Then my legs start feeling restless so I sit in bed and stretch them for a little while. Luckily, I haven't really had a problem getting back to sleep.

Symptoms?

I have headaches almost every day...usually onset by something at work. I know that I can take Tylenol, but I've been trying not to take anything at all. A glass of Coke usually helps! I've also been having some dizziness and feeling tired again over the past week. Oh, and I look like a teenager with all the breakouts I've been having!

Movement?  

Can't feel anything yet!

Food Cravings/Aversions? 

I don't think that I've literally craved anything, but there have been things that have just sounded really good. We had Easter lunch at my parents house on Sunday and as I was filling my plate, I came across the ham. Usually I hate ham. Ew. Gross. But for some reason, this ham just looked SO GOOD. And it was! I ate, ate and ate some ham. I've also had leftovers for lunch yesterday and today. I'll give a lot of the credit to my parents for making such a delicious glazed ham though!

No aversions lately...I've (obviously) been an eating machine. Baby K is hungry!

Labor Signs? 

No!

Belly Button in or out? 

Still in

What I miss?

Not being able to drink a Coke as much as I would like. I've been trying really hard to limit my caffeine intake. It's not like I drank gallons of Coke pre-pregnancy, but it was my go-to drink if I had a bad day. I can thank the women in my family for this habit. Bad day? Drink some Coke. Headache? Drink some Coke. Crying? Drink some Coke. Is this a Southern thing or does everyone do this? Or is it just something specific to my family?? Either way, I miss my Coke.

What I am looking forward to?  

Check-up next week - Hopefully get to hear Baby K's heartbeat again!
Planning our gender reveal party

Best moment of the week? 

Spending Easter with the family - getting baby clothes

I'm really late on posting this as the start to my 13 weeks was actually on Sunday. Better late than never!
