How far along: 13 weeks! Hello, second trimester!
Baby's size: a medium shrimp; just over 3 inches long and nearly an ounce
What Munchkin is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
Fingerprints have formed on your baby's tiny fingertips, her veins and organs are clearly visible through her still-thin skin, and her body is starting to catch up with her head — which makes up just a third of her body size now. If you're having a girl, she now has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries.
Symptoms: A little bit of back pain this week, but nothing serious.
Total Weight Gain: Still holding steady at 4lbs.
Best moment since last update: Seeing Munchkin put on an acrobatic performance for 20 minutes while the doctor tried to get the ONE measurement he was after :)
Movement: I'm still able to fall asleep on my stomach, which is my preferred position, but a time or two this past week I've found that if I lay in that position too long, the Munchkin protests with a little squirm. So I may occasionally flip to my stomach just to get that reaction (shhh! Don't tell!)
Food cravings: Still sweet. Totally different than the salty I had with Mia. I discovered Chick-Fil-A banana pudding milkshakes this week. Oh dear... the temptation will be hard to resist.
Gender: Stay tuned!
What I miss: Nothing much at the moment. Feeling pretty good and comfortable! Maybe being able to sleep through the night? Getting up 3x a night, and then up for the day with Mia, who has suddenly decided 6:30 is the best time to start the day, is not the best combination.
What I'm looking forward to: Meeting with the ObGyn next week to start talking about the process/plan for the rest of this pregnancy.
