Pregnancy Highlights: Entering the second trimester in hopes of morning sickness going away!
How Far Along: 12 weeks
Total Weight Gain: 3 lbs
Maternity Clothes: yes I am wearing some maternity. I can still wear normal clothes they just don't fit as well or comfortably.
Best Moment of the Week: Last week at 11 weeks I was sitting on the couch and could tell the baby was to the far left of my uterus due to the increased pressure in that area. All the sudden I could feel very distinct and rhythmic little pulses as I pressed my hand in I could really feel it. I am 100% sure the baby had hiccups.
Gender: Unknown still at this point
What's going on with the Baby: The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements.
Baby is size of: a lime
Movement: none that I can feel at this time. I can tell due to pressure in areas if the baby is on a certain side but this is not all the time and usually when I am laying down on my back.
Food Craving: no really strong cravings, I did have one craving for imitation crab meat dipped in butter and one evening I sent Brad out for fruit (the already cut up mixture at the store) I really wanted the pineapple. This is not a craving, but Chick-fil-a #1 with cheese has been very satisfying for me.
What I Miss: not feeling sick so much, just feeling normal and sleeping comfortably or being able to get back to sleep.
Sleep: I wake up a lot. Only once a night to empty my bladder but for the most part I just wake up and can't get back to sleep. It is kind of miserable.
What I am looking forward to: feeling the baby move.
Symptoms: you name it I have had it this pregnancy. Bloating, nausea, throwing up, constipation, sleeplessness, muscle pulls, weight gain, food aversions etc.
