12 weeks!

I'm really anxious for this Friday! We have our next ultrasound to check for down syndrome. I'm hoping and praying that everything goes well.

I'm still a bit fatigued, but it's getting better. The most annoying thing this week is that I've bought nectarines several times this week, and people at the grocery store don't know how to pack them up! So my craving for nectarines has not been satisfied this week! I guess if that's my biggest annoyance, I'm doing pretty well :)

So, at 12 weeks they say you might start "showing". I still don't think I look pregnant, but I can see some changes happening. I think I just look chubby at this point, but I guess that's the price you have to pay to get to the bump!

This week I'm going to compare this weeks to the first week....which was 8 weeks I think...so about a month has passed!



Not a huge change, but I think it's getting a little more rounded! It probably doesn't help that my tummy wasn't exactly it the best of shape when our journey started....but we can't worry about that now!

11 Weeks

Not much has changed in the last week.

I thought I was feeling like I had more energy. I went to the pool with my friend on Thursday, so I missed my afternoon nap. I was passed out on the couch by 7:30/8! I guess I'm not quite on the upside of the fatigue...

I don't feel like there is much change in the growth of the belly. I'll do another comparison to see if there's been change...

Here's last weeks...

Here's this weeks...

I don't see much change. They say that you can start to see real changes around 12 weeks...so we shall see with next weeks picture!

10 Weeks!

Today is 10 weeks! We've made it to the double digits!

This week we scheduled the Down syndrome testing (or maybe it was last week...) for August 2nd. Forgive my baby brain. I can't wait to see the baby again! I hope everything is going well inside this tummy of mine.

This week I've been craving nectarines and chocolate milk. Not both at the same time, though.

I want to do a comparison of this week and last week's belly. I already posted the 1st one.



I think it's slightly bigger! I hope because of the babe, not because of eating habits! I've been more conscience of eating healthy this week. 

My clothing are certainly getting tighter. I keep reading and I've heard that 16 weeks is the magic number for needing maternity clothes, but I don't think I'm going to make it until then! 

My mom is coming in August and we are going to go clothes shopping then. I'm not sure I can last 4 more weeks...but we shall see! I'm digging through the closet to make it last!

9 Weeks 2 days

I was inspired by a Pinterest post to make a chalkboard to show the progress of the growing belly.

At this point my belly has only grown because I can't stop shoving food in my face!

Seriously though, I'm trying harder this week to eat healthier. Hopefully I'll have a growing belly soon because of the baby, not because of bad eating habits!

Anyway, we are 9 weeks and 2 days today! Yippee!
