12 Weeks

How Far Along: 12 weeks 5 days

Size of baby:Size of a lime. He/she is about 2 inches long and half an ounce!

Total Weight Gain/Loss:+8 lbs (I always gain a lot in the first trimester) I think it's my body's way of kind of catching up since I'm pretty small to begin with. I weighed about 104 lbs pre pregnancy.

Maternity Clothes: None yet, but I cannot button ANY of my pants. I have been wearing 1 pairs of shorts that zips on the side and that I can zip about half way and then cover with my shirts. Thankfully, my bella bands came in today!!  I can still wear all of my shirts.

Gender: We do not know yet! We kind of feel like it may be a girl just because this pregnancy has been so much different than my other two. I have been so sick this time around and have been on zofran since about 7 weeks and lots of break outs! Had very minimal nausea with both boys and no breakouts with them, but we'll see! All pregnancy's are different regardless. We'll be thrilled with a boy or a girl!

Movement: none yet! I look forward to this the most!!

Sleep:I sleep fine once I get to sleep, but I have a hard time falling asleep! I have a hard time relaxing at night and I get stressed about having to wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom so right before I know I'm about to fall asleep, I probably get up and go the bathroom about 3 times!

What I miss:Not having to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

Cravings: Peaches and salads

Best Moment This Week:Hearing the babies heart beat for the first time on the doppler!

Sweet Surprise baby # 3


Yes, this sweet baby was a complete surprise and shock, but we are so excited for his/her arrival in late January/early February. My due date is February 2nd! I can't wait to find out if we will get another boy or a sweet little girl!! I honestly don't care. I think most everyone is thinking/hoping it's a girl, but I really can see positives to either and will be completely fine with whatever God has given us!!
