Week 12

12 weeks - according to The Bump

Peanut is the size of a plum (2.1", .49oz)

Most of the critical systems are fully formed!

Peanuts about to enter the growth and maturation stage, in which the organs and tissues will grow and develop rapidly!

Reflexes are now devolving - poke my belly and peanut will move (it did this at my 10 week ultrasound!)

Opening and closing fingers and curling toes, too!

Brain is developing fast!

Thank you again for all the love surrounding this peanut! I can't say that enough. It's a lot different sharing this pregnancy than David's because, well, I'm not 18 trying to finish high school and I'm in a great marriage with an amazing guy. This baby and David have the most amazing family pouring love to them always! I don't want to say this one makes our family complete because despite the horrible start, I may still want my 3rd! Anyway, onto this weeks update!

Trying to avoid a mamas boy with strep throat is AWESOME. Thankfully he contracted it so he was down over the weekend and Michael took care of him while I barricaded myself in the room with a nasty head cold. He was so mad we wouldn't let him have hard/crunchy stuff Friday/Saturday due to his tonsils being so swollen. I didn't want him going through the pain of something cutting them. My head cold is finally gone! That was a rough week since meds are few and far between while pregnant. Resting all weekend while my husband cooked, cleaned and took care of David was so nice, not to mention Monday David was off so we had another lazy day to recoup!

Another difference in pregnancies I forgot to add to the last post: BOOOOOBS!

With David I was a 34B before and hardly got to a C when he came. Dropped to a 34A after... With this peanut I'm already wearing a 34C. What the hell! Hopefully this is a good sign. I hard a hard time breast feeding David and want to so bad with this one. It could mean nothing, except I'm getting fat ;) but I'll look at it in a different way lol

How far along: 12 weeks!

Maternity clothes:  I neeeeed to buy some. 

Stretch marks: I thought I saw some on my boobs but they were lines from sleeping.

Best moment this week: my belly actually rounding out! I'm getting out the "is she pregnant or fat" stage

Movement: no, I'm dying to feel some.

Food cravings: nothing crazy this week. Just the typical fries!!
