13 weeks!

Today, I am 13 weeks pregnant with the little peanut. I am thankful to be out of my first trimester and am also thankful to be feeling better than I did last pregnancy (so far, atleast!). I had a doctor's appointment last Friday and everything looked great! Heart rate was 160, which makes me think girl. Sweet Jesus, help us. All these women in this house! Whew.

The morning sickness has actually tapered off this time around, which is very unlike last pregnancy. With Saylor, it lasted all 40 weeks. I had a rough few weeks of it from around weeks 6 - 11, but it seems better. I, of course, still have plenty of moments and still take zofran daily, but I am certainly thankful this time is a bit better. That kind of sickness, combined with a 10 month old, that might just do this momma in ;).

Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along:  13 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss:  no gain yet
Maternity Clothes:  No maternity clothes yet.
Best Moment this week:  It seems like I am feeling baby move, although I feel certain it's too early. Not sure, though.
Gender:  Don't know yet, but I'm thinking girl
Movement: On Monday morning, I woke Sean to tell him I thought I was feeling the baby move, but I'm not exactly sure
Food Craving:  Cheese, oranges, grape juice
What I miss: Sleeping without crazy dreams!
Sleep:  The dreams have been crazy this time around! I wake up in the middle of the night all the time!
What I am looking forward to:  Watching my belly grow, finding out the sex, getting nursery ideas!
Belly Button:  In
Stretch Marks: None yet. 
Symptoms:  A little bit of nausea, headaches here in there, crazy dreams!
