13 weeks
FYI: I wrote these during the actual weeks they are dated, and took the pictures then as well

Pregnancy week: 13 weeks (August 21-27), 1st Trimester *I realize
that lots of the information is actually what has been going on in the previous
week so technically it’s stuff from 12 weeks but we’ll go with it as I don’t
want to have wait until the week is over before posting.
Baby Size/Fruit comparison: Size of a medium shrimp, about 3 inches long
Mommy’s weight gain: 2.5-3 pounds so far
What I’m wearing: Still trying to squeeze into my regular
clothes, though I’m close to having to do a major wardrobe/closet re-haul and
bring in the maternity clothes and bigger sized jeans I have in storage and put
away the smaller sizes L
What I’m eating…or not: Salad has been sounding good. I walked over
to Applebee’s on my lunch break one day and wolfed down an Asian Chicken Salad
for lunch, and picked up a Caesar Salad another day.
The Good: So close to the 2nd
trimester which is a huge relief to make it this far.
The Bad: Waiting for the nausea to calm down, I
thought it was supposed to be getting better soon? And I really wish my sense of smell wasn’t so
extremely heightened. I can barely stand
being in the kitchen as anything with a strong smell drives me crazy (food
being prepared, the garbage can, food in the fridge). I have a candle lit
almost all hours of the day to have something pleasant to smell.
The First Born: Found out that he’s been talking all about
his ‘baby sister’ at daycare for the past month or so…
