Week 13 Bump Update!

How far along? 13 weeks, Baby is the size of a Lemon!

Total weight gain: About 3lbs

Maternity clothes? I have stocked up on a few extra loose tops for now as I just don't feel my self in tighter stuff now that my flat tum is gone.  I have also purchased a couple of bump bands from Mothercare.  They are so useful now that some of my jeans are tight with my ever growing belly. 

Stretch marks? Nope, I am using Bio-oil daily it smells lovely.

Sleep: I am sleeping well most nights but I do have the odd one where I just feel restless and cant seem to settle.  I find its more so when I am worried about something or if I have perhaps indulged a little more that day.  Something I have done more then usual this week as my Sis-in-law has been home from Auz.  That and I am trying to sleep on my side rather then my back as I know it will make a difference later on when bump gets bigger. 

Best moment this week: We had our second scan last week so although its not this week my husband and I are still excited from that.  Bump had grown so much since our 9 week scan. She/he now has little arms and legs rather then the little buds we saw last time.

Miss anything? Smoked salmon... I miss it so much but as I cant have raw fish its off the menu for sometime.  I did have a smoked salmon and asparagus tart yesterday which was nice.  But its not the same cooked :-( 

Food cravings:Nothing really, I am into fruit a lot.  But I have always been a big fruit eater. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Tomato based pasta sauces.. Yuck just the thought of it makes me feel sick. 

Gender: No idea, my dad seems sure its a girl as does Chrissy my sis-in-law.  But I really have no idea.  As long as bump is happy, healthy and growing I am good with that. 

Labor signs: No.

Symptoms:Tender boobs, mild growing aches in my lower abdomen but they only last a second and then go.  From what I have read and talked to others this is very very normal. 

Belly button in or out? In!

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy most of the time.. I can get a little grumpy if I get too hungry or tired. 

Looking forward to: My bump popping! Getting out of the Fat who ate all the pies stage and into the look at my bump stage.
