RAISING THE LITTLE BARR'S

13 weeks!

Charlene7 Comments
So this post was meant to be up about 2 weeks ago :) Things are cuh-razy these days, though! Attempting to pack up our house, J studying for boards like it's his job (well, it is, I guess!), me getting ready to finish up with work, shooting the med school graduation, and loving our baby has consumed most of my time. We have a crazy couple of weeks (well, months) coming up, so I'm trying to be as ready as I can for them!

I'm going to try to document the pregnancy week-by-week, using inspiration from blogs like Little Baby Garvin, and Our Little Casita. Fun :)

Ladies and gentlemen, I now present you:

13 weeks!

  • How far along?: 13 weeks, 5 days
  • Baby is the size of a: Georgia Peach!
  • Total weight gain/loss: +3
  • The Bump: It's rounding out a little.
  • Symptoms: Hmm..not too many this week!
  • Food Cravings: Nada. But I do love me some fruit and sweets. Must stop with the latter though!
  • Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Nope.
  • Sleep: Progesterone knocks me out at night. But I do have to wake up in the middle of the night every night to go to the bathroom -- something I am NOT used to!
  • What I miss: While I'd love to say that I miss sipping on some beers outside in the sun, I know I wouldn't be doing that even if I weren't pregnant because my husband is glued to his desk studying for boards. Literally can't even get him out to dinner these days! (completely understandable!) So as of now, I'm not missing too much!
  • Weddings Rings On or Off: On
  • Any Names Picked Out Yet: Yes, actually, this came very easy for us contrary to what everyone told us about picking out names...but you'll just have to wait ;)
  • Gender Prediction: I've been thinking girl since the beginning, but I think that's only because people close to me have girls. The rest of the family thinks boy. I have so many reasons why I want either, so with the first, I'll be happy with a boy or a girl! I'm actually kinda excited that it's still a mystery.
  • Movement: Not yet.
  • Maternity Clothes: None. Although I did peek at some in Target...maternity clothes are ugly to me. I'll leave it at that! And expensive.
  • Labor Signs: None.
  • Best Moment of the Week: We got to see our baby having a ton of fun in my belly! Baby B was rolling all around, sucking it's thumb, swallowing fluids, puckering it's lips, waving it's hand....and it was on my birthday! Amazing :)
  • What Iā€™m excited about/looking forward to: Hmm..feeling the baby move!
