TOTAL WEIGHT GAIN- 2 LBS total the first trimester. I feel like going into week 13 I’m starting to gain weight a little faster!!
////
MATERNITY CLOTHES?- Not yet! I am excited to bring down the summer clothes and decide what can be used the whole pregnancy. I want to save as much money as possible!
////
STRETCH MARKS?- No No No! Let’s stay positive!!
////
SLEEP?- Sleeping great! Still kinda stay up late. Getting better at going to bed earlier, though. I noticed my pee breaks are less frequent! OH….and starting to sleep on my left side only. Better for the sciatic nerve. This is hard for me because I’m a back/right side sleeper. Dangit.
////
BEST MOMENT THIS WEEK?- I felt a little vibration in my lower abdomen while falling asleep. It was the weirdest sensation. (and NO IT WAS NOT GAS!!) I like to think it was baby Potuck moving around in his/her little gestational sac. The doc says I may feel flutters starting about now. So, that was pretty cool.
////
MISS ANYTHING?- Sushi. Energy!
////
MOVEMENT?- Kinda sorta…but NOT the real deal kicking stuff. That’ll be a while…I think!
////
FOOD CRAVINGS?- They’re going bye bye! At least this week.
////
FOOD AVERSIONS?- Still my salads. But….I’ve found that if I drink my salads in juice form I still get my nutrients. Gotta do what I gotta do!!
////
GENDER- Besides the brief…”oh it might be a girl because of the high heart rate” ….I still go back to feeling it’s a little boy!
////
SYMPTOMS- Pure happiness! Darren is such a good man. He’s been so supportive through my moods. (which are few I like to think) 😉 My skin is touch and go with the break outs. I’m losing my normal high energy levels. Such a bummer. Very burpy!

WEDDING RINGS ON OR OFF? ON
////
LOOKING FORWARD TO- Finding a new home for us and finding out baby Potuck’s sex!!!!!!!!!! Ay ay ay!
