Baby H is the size of a plum.

12 weeks, 4 days. Little baby H was a flurry of motion during this sonogram. Can you spot his/her little hands and feet?! |

Baby H is the size of a plum, and I am so in love with our little one! |

This bacon, egg and cheese jalapeno bagel was so good I wanted a 2nd one...which I resisted of course ;-) I'm so hungry these days I feel like I could eat all day long. |

And speaking of eating all day long... this late night Sonic Blast was delicious! All the same, I'm pretty sure any size larger than a small should be illegal for the safety of American consumers. |
Maternity clothes: I bought my first nursing bras this week because my others don't fit anymore... Considering I'm only three months along, I'm wondering just how big my boobs are going to get!
Stretch marks? None...fingers crossed. I'm using Palmer's Cocoa Butter Massage Cream every day now.
Sleep: Is still an issue. I broke down and bought a Snoogle, and so far it seems pretty cozy, but I still wake up on my back every once in a while. My dreams are getting weirder and I am waking up more often. I've heard that sleep gets easier in the second trimester, so I'm hoping that I'll be getting more shut eye soon.
Best moment this week: Getting to see little Baby H during my first trimester screening. Our little one is so active! She/he was sleeping soundly when the ultrasound tech started the sonogram, but after a few prods the baby started moving around like crazy. It was amazing to see our baby's little hands and feet moving all around. At one point it stuck one of its little feet up and I could count his/her little toes! I feel so blessed knowing our baby is healthy and strong. Her? heartbeat was 150 on Tuesday, still above 140, so if I go by the heart rate gender prediction we may have a little Lorelai! Of course, if the baby is a boy we will be equally thrilled. We just want a healthy little bebe <3
Miss Anything? I miss good turkey sandwiches.
Movement: My doctor said I should start feeling the baby move at around 18 weeks, so I have a little while to wait before I can feel Lorelai or Max's little kicks.
Food cravings: Bagels and, bizarrely, M&M Blasts from Sonic. Gabe is amazing and ran out for late night Blast treats the other night. Note to all- do not read the nutrition information before you indulge! I'm glad I got a small, and it still took me two days to finish it. How does this seriously come in a larger size?
Anything making you queasy or sick: Milk and anything with tomato based sauces. Morning Sickness can't start in the second trimester, can it? I've felt nauseated all week :-(
Gender: It's something like 48% vs 52%, so I can safely say we're having a boy or a girl lol. We have our anatomy ultrasound and gender scan on June 11th!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Fatigue, enlarged breasts- according to H&M, I'm now a 36E! I didn't even know that exists as a cup size!
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On and still loose. Hopefully I'll be able to wear them the whole time!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! Our life together is marvelous and I am married to the most amazing man in the world. God is very good to us!
Looking forward to: Finishing up my spring classes. Only one exam left to go! Fortunately, I will actually get about a month off of school before summer semester begins. Gabe and I are planning a romantic weekend getaway too, so I have plenty to look forward to this summer. As of right now, my only plan is to spend the whole summer with smoothies by the pool. Little Baby H and I are going to relax, read, and relax some more!
