Week 12

This week the babies are Plums!

Baby’s almost done developing her body’s important systems and parts, which means, it’s mostly about getting bigger and more mature from here on out. The average fetus at 12 weeks is about 2.1 inches long and .49 ounces.

Total weight gain/loss: I lost one lb last week despite constant eating

Maternity clothes: Not yet but will start tomorrow.  I am definitely out of my jeans and most of my work pants.

Stretch marks: not yet

Sleep: I am having trouble just because I have to go to the bathroom so much.

Best moment this week: Letting everyone at work know that i am pregnant.  It is great to have their excitement surround me!

Movement: Not yet, but Evelyn is so excited!

Food cravings: Cookie cake which someone brought in to the clinic.  I am trying not to be greedy.

Symptoms: Still fatigue but getting better with everything else. There is also some cramping which the doctor told me to expect since i will grow so much faster this time around and dizziness which I didn't expect.

Gender: I don't know.  But I think we will find out.

Labor Signs: Not yet it's way too early

Belly Button in or out: still in.

What I miss: Being physically active okay being any kind of active.

What I am looking forward to: the first specialist visit next week. it will be nice to have some more information and another ultrasound.

Weekly Wisdom: Too many sweets bring back the nausea.

Milestones:

Feelings: Upbeat and excited.  I am getting some baby stuff this weekend and have been offered a crib.  I can't wait until Jason gets going on the rooms!
