12 weeks (I think?)

I'm a wee bit confused as to what week I'm in because 2 appointments ago, it puts me at changing weeks on a Wednesday (meaning I'd be 12 and half right now, b/c it's Saturday). But at my last appointment last week, my doc told me something different which would make me 13 weeks today. It makes no sense! Whatev. I'm sure it will change every time I'm there, so I'm sticking with Wednesday as my "week change" day because my due date falls on a Wednesday.. it's simple really.


Anywayyyyyy, I FINALLY got to hear our little bubba's heartbeat last week.. it was beautiful. Every time I think about it, I smile. How can people not believe in God? It's amazing to think this little person is just forming in there.. it's mind blowing.

Here's the update...

Total weight gain: at my appointment last week, not a pound in sight! They said everyone is different... maybe I'll become a big fatty last minute, who knows.
Symptoms: Fatigue comes and goes.. and nausea kind of made a return recently.. I'm gagging randomly.. sr'sly that needs TA GO! And I'm cramping a little bit again, nothing intense, but twinges. And the worst of all.. my lower back/sciatic nerve area. OMG it hurts soooo bad and nothing relieves it. Messed up, baby, messed up. JK I love you :)
Maternity clothes: Not quite, I got a few hand me downs the other day.. I luckily can just wear the dresses I already have since it's still summer.
Stretch marks: Not yet.. I ordered some Mama Mio stretch mark cream and oil which has GREAT reviews in preventing stretch marks during pregnancy and after delivery. Hoping it works!
Sleep: I spoke too soon last week. I haven't had a good night sleep in a week. UGH. This sciatic nerve pinch is uncomfortable and still peeing quite frequently.
Best moment this week: We went to the beach for the weekend with my parents and Garrett.. it was a really nice time. But hearing the heartbeat of the little babe is at the top of my list!
Miss anything?:A good night's rest... sooo ready to get one!
Movement: not yet!
Food cravings: No, finally eating some salads though.. and tomatoes sound kinda good.. which is great cuz that's actually healthy!
Food aversions: Nothing this week
Belly button: Normal
Wedding ring: fitting normal
Mood: pretty normal, I mean I tear up at A Baby Story.. but I've kinda always done that. I also almost died lighting the grill last night.. that scared the poop out of me and I cried when Jake came to check on me.. I coulda been toast man!
Looking forward to: Our gender reveal on Sept 14!!!! Boy or girllll????? We think girl, but who knows?!
Baby bump: itty bitty bump


Much love!!!
