Bun in the Oven!

Well, I am really going to try to start updating on a regular basis…and for good reason!  We have a lot going on that I want to document these days.

We are going to have a BABY!  Baby Moore is due December 29th and we couldn’t be more excited!!!  We had our second appointment today and everything is looking great!

How Far Along:  13 weeks 1 day

Size of Baby:  According to my Junk Food Baby Size Chart Baby Moore is the size of a half-eaten corn dog.  HA!

Maternity Clothes:  Not yet, but I definitely need to get one of the belly bands asap.  Most things are starting to get snug and some things have already been retired.

Gender:  TBD.  We have a 3D ultrasound scheduled for July 11th to find out!

Movement:  None yet.  It was SO fun to see the cutie moving around on the ultrasound today though.  Such a change from the one at 9 weeks where baby looked like a little peanut.

Sleep:  Waking up once most nights and having some trouble getting back to sleep...although this was somewhat of a problem pre pregnancy.  BOO!

Symptoms:  Over the first 13 weeks I have had lots.  Some nausea, but luckily have not physically been ill.  Acne…gross.  Have never had a big problem with my skin, but this is on my chest, back, and face.  My lower back is starting to hurt when I go on my walks in the afternoons…and this is worrisome that it would already be bothering me a little.  Peeing pretty frequently.  No other major symptoms that I can think of.

What I miss:  Nothing really…except my husband!  He has been gone for the past two months except for a short week in the middle.

Cravings:  More food aversions than cravings and that has been the case since day one.  Can’t even think about pot roast without my mouth watering…and not in a good way.

Best Moment this Week:  Seeing our sweet babe on the ultrasound today moving all around and hearing the heartbeat of 148.

What I am looking forward to:  Jimmy coming home in less than a week!  My bestie, Mercedes’, wedding this weekend!

 

I have a lot to catch up on…engagements, weddings, babies, our move and major house renovations, etc.  So much excitement in the Moore world.
