13 Weeks...and it's TWINS!

Well sort of twins. Like...I must have one in each butt cheek because MAN my @$$ has gotten HUGE! LOL. Someone told me that girls make you bigger on the bottom and boys make you bigger on top, but I hope that is not true because we are hoping for a boy! Oh well..we will see soon enough!

So it seems while I was spending months and months staring at my chalk board and trying to get pregnant, the rest of the world was actually getting pregnant and making chalkboards of their own. So I opted for a new way to track the bump. Behold!


While I scrapped the chalkboard, I did however decide to continue with the popular weekly update list.

How far along? 13 Weeks
Total weight gain: None yet.
Maternity clothes? Had to break down and get a Bella band (thanks for buying, Mom!) It has been a lifesaver with my jeans!
Stretch marks? Nope.
Sleep: I have finally been able to sleep the past few nights..probably thanks to hubby kicking the dog off the bed!
Best moment this week: Well it is only Tuesday..but I guess finally cleaning out the room we are going to use for the nursery!!

Miss Anything? Drinks. Drinks Driiiiiiiinks. And sleeping on my stomach. What I wouldn't give..
Movement: Can't wait!
Food cravings: Oh gosh...since about week 6 I have had SUCH cravings...I always thought it was kinda bull honky that pregnant women really got cravings..but I have been proven wrong. First was bacon and eggs, then fried chicken, then french fries and strawberries, then cole slaw on top of saltines and now peanut butter. I know, I know...limit my peanut products. But I wake up craving it. Current obsession is peanut butter cracker sandwich thingys. Yummm.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really. I made sausage balls today and the raw sausage was the first time I have kind of been turned off.
Gender: Fingers crossed for boy!! Happy either way though!

Labor Signs: No.
Symptoms: Literally NONE other than the recent onset of horrific headaches...to the point of throwing up. I know I am lucky though...I had a really easy first trimester symptom-wise.
Belly Button in or out? In...please don't do it!!!
Wedding rings on or off? On!

Happy or Moody most of the time: Depends on when you catch me...emotions are starting to fly!
Looking forward to: This Thursday's NT scan...hopefully they will be able to guess the gender too! Also looking forward to our big garage sale this weekend!!!!


So I wish I would have done this earlier and been able to see the changes from the very beginning, but I was just too scared of jinxing things in the first trimester. I will get over it though. I am just happy we are here!
