A little late on this one…

How far along? 12 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 131.2 (0.0 week) (+1.0 total)

Maternity clothes? Over-belly pants, bigger bra.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: Mostly good, except the night that I had heartburn all night long. Can easily sleep 10+ hours.

Best moment this week: The relief of seeing a healthy little baby at my screening.

Movement: Not feeling any yet.

Food cravings/aversions: Sweet, hard candy. Not much else sounds appetizing this week. I’m more or less forcing myself to eat – I’m hungry and eating a lot of different things, but they’re all kind of “bleh” right now.

Belly Button in or out? In, but stretched.

What I miss: Being able to run and jump and dance – without being paranoid. And without certain body parts bouncing that shouldn’t really be bouncing.

What I am looking forward to: End of the first tri!!

Weekly Wisdom: Trust in your body. Paranoia comes and goes, but if you feel “good”, it’s probably all okay.

Milestones: Felt my uterus very clearly coming up out of my pelvis. First tri screening done.

Symptoms:
– Still a lot of nausea, but it comes and goes randomly.
– Boobs hurt, especially my right nipple. Feels like they’re still growing?! Very full and achy.
– Bloat belly still lives, though I do feel less bloated than I did.
– Foot cramps when I’m swimming (and random other times).
– Achiness in both sides down low. Ligaments stretching?
– My face seems less oily, more clear.
– Acid reflux!! Ugh! Took me a while to figure that out, but I have a burning in the back of my throat. Maalox helps a lot. Could be why the anti-nausea meds aren’t doing much – it’s caused by heartburn right now?
– Burps. Ugh, lots of burps.
