13 Weeks: Finally in 2nd Trimester!

Your Baby: Week 13

Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords... savor this, their non-functional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with a head now only one third the size of the body. Intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy. (Much more convenient.)

About Me:

How far along? 13w4d

Total weight gain/loss: 1-2 lbs+

Maternity clothes? nothing more then a button extender is needed and some extra long shirts.

Stretch marks? a few but not from this lil' one

Sleep: Really don't need as much as I did, I still find myself taking a nap around 3-4pm for an hour.

Best moment this week: Finally beginning the 2nd Trimester!

Movement: A few more weeks before I can have that pleasure

Food cravings: Watermelon Licorice Twists, Peach Tea, Squirt.

Gender: still too early to know

Belly Button in or out? in

What I miss: although I am happy to be pregnant, I have discovered that I'm becoming somewhat lactose intolerant. Too much milk or ice cream will have me in the bathroom in no time. So I miss not getting sick after drinking milk!

What I am looking forward to: 16 Week appt. on May 12th

Milestones: Making it to 13 weeks and into the 2nd Trimester.

Symptoms-

sore and growing BB's ( I feel like Dolly Parton)

Frequent urination (Not as bad as a few weeks ago, only have to get up once a night now)

mood swings (unfortunately these are still going strong! Poor man!)
