Heeeeerrre's the belly 12-13 weeks

13 weeks



Here's what our baby is looking like inside this week. I just randomly found this on the internet. It's amazing that someone the size of a peach can look so humanly and perfectly formed already. This week the intestines, which were partly in the umbilical chord, are now moving inside the baby. Also, the vocal chords are developing.
I'm not exactly sure how or when this happened, but as I am now 13 weeks and looking like THIS.... I can only hope that by the end of my pregnancy I have enough skin left to cover my tummy. I've only gained 2-3 pounds according to the doctor, and I usually fluctuate between a few pounds anyway, so this HAS to be uterus, right? Anyway, I know this picture isn't exactly cute but here it is for all to see who are far away from us :)

I've been feeling pretty good. At least, better than before. My all-day morning sickness is going away and I only threw up twice last week, zero times this week so far. I've had trouble with headaches, but that's not too bad. I'm not as tired as I was last week, although I'm still tired. Hunger is now my new best friend and I always want to eat which can actually be very annoying. Other than that I just feel like I'm so obviously pregnant!
