Pregnancy: 13 Weeks Bump Update

Helloooooo week 13! Goodbyeeee first trimester. I am feeling a lot better than I have been energy wise and this past week. we got the spare room cleared out to put the nursery together. Not much happened this week, but my weight is starting to creep a bit. I started off at 128 and I am at about 131 pounds. We are prepping for a Kentucky trip with the kids and that is about it! I plan on revealing the gender towards the end of the month, I think. Our next baby appt is not until August when we will see the anatomy of the baby. I wish it were not so far away! This pregnancy, I am LOVING fruit.

How far along? 13 weeks

Baby size: a peapod

Total weight gain: 3lbs ish

Maternity clothes? Not usually. But I am wearing them here and there.

Stretch marks? No

Sleep: Slept like a baby all week!

Workouts: Back to normal, lifting heavier and going on daily walks.

Diet: Eating what I want in moderation. Definitely not skipping meals lol.

Best moment this week:  Getting our baby’s nursery ready! We put together baby’s dresser and started clearing out the room that will become the nursery. It felt great! Other than that. not much happened this week other than prepping to take the kids to Kentucky this weekend to meet my husband Scotty’s family for the first time.

Miss anything? Feeling full LOL. I am so hungry!

Food cravings: This week I have been craving kiwis and Whole Fruit Mango popsicles.

Anything making you queasy or sick? My body still hates being hungry-I have to snack often or I will feel sick.

Gender:  Will reveal soon.

Labour signs: No!

Symptoms: Some atigue. Still gassy lol. Feeling flutters in my lower tummy.

Belly button in or out? In! It never popped out the last 2 times.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Notes:

I found out I was pregnant at just 3 weeks of pregnancy after we did our frozen embryo transfer. If you haven’t followed my IVF journey, check out my frozen embryo transfer blog and my egg retrieval blog. Long story short, my husband was infertile due to the structure of his reproductive system-his vas deferens were missing so IVF was the only way and it worked the first try!

I have not been pregnant in 8 years almost so it is wild that I am doing it all over again and hope to do it only fourth and final time in another two-three years. Wish us luck and love! I will be doing these pregnancy progression bump updates weekly so you can “grow” with me along with a bump photo + questions about my pregnancy.
