12 weeks

It's both hilarious and amazing to me that God created it such that one human being grows another inside of her! So strange if you really stop to think about it! Sean has been incredible so far during this pregnancy -- putting up with my picky eating and making sure I'm comfortable. He has such a big servant's heart -- this baby and I will put it to the test, I'm sure. :) 

How far along: 12 weeks 

Size of baby: A plum - about 2 inches long :)

Gender: The doctor said she would try to look at 15 weeks

Maternity clothes: Not yet. I did try on some maternity clothes at gap yesterday, but it sort of weirded me out. It's still sometimes hard for me to believe I really am pregnant and really will need new pants soon. Luckily I own a lot of dresses and empire waist/oversized tops.

Weight gain: None yet.

Movement: Not yet.

Sleep: Sleeping well. I see some type of body pillow in the near future. I'm sleeping lighter than usual, which is probably good b/c I sleep like a rock normally and that is one of my biggest concerns once baby arrives (that I won't wake up and/or will be very cranky with lack of sleep)

Symptoms: I get tired more easily and sometimes have little cramps. Food aversions are still present, but I think my appetite is starting to pick up some.

Best moment this week: A tiny baby bump has appeared. Others probably don't readily notice it, but it's a fun reminder for me and has helped this pregnancy to feel more 'real' to me.
