This week was not what I expected. I thought that once I got to 13 weeks, that I would have less worries, but with the "high risk" screening for trisomies 18/13 - I just find myself in a whole entire world of worry and concerns. I really hope that it's all a "worry for nothing" thing and that my baby is OK. None-the-less, I'm going to continue to track the pregnancy and see how things go along the way.
How far along: 13 weeks
How big is baby: A Lemon. Via app:
Weight Gain: -4 lbs
Stretch Marks: Nope.
Symptoms: I feel almost "normal" right now. The only thing is I get really tired quickly when things get busy. The other thing is I get horrible hunger pains! I'll be fine and then I'll need to eat quickly. But then I end up not being able to eat that much.
Sleeping: Still tossing and turning at night. Getting side-sores. Seriously considering getting a pregnancy pillow, maybe it'll help?
Food cravings: Chocolate...
Food aversions: No food aversions anymore! Going to see if I can actually cook raw meat though. Wish me luck.
Maternity Clothes: Pants and loving them still. I want to buy more. My pre-pregnancy size in maternity clothes is one size too big, oddly. So, I think I want to go down a size and buy a few more pants. My regular pants still "fit" and everything, they just feel confining.
Movement: Nope, too early still.
What I did / Got for Baby: Nothing this week.
What I miss: having less anxiety.
Workouts: Will my schedule ever lighten up to fit workouts in???
What I'm looking forward to: Feeling the baby move.
Best moment of the week: Finding the baby's heartbeat on my home doppler. It took awhile to find it, but once I saw the 161 bpm - I knew I finally found my little one!
