13 weeks and all is well

How far along: 13 wks

Total weight change: None

Maternity clothes: My super sweet coworker brought me a couple of shirts that she had (she had an October baby too!) and I went and got 2 pairs of slacks, some shorts, and some shirts. Sugarbeet was nice enough to get me some new shoes too! I needed some heels to wear with my new slacks, but none of my black heels are properly broken in, meaning I needed to get some more "sensible" heels.  They are a 3in peep toe platform, über comfortable! I have no clothes I can wear comfortably without my band, and a few of my blouses are getting a little too tight.  All of my cotton/stretchy stuff is still fine.

Stretch Marks: No

Movement: I wish

Sleep: MUCH BETTER! I've been able to stay alseep much longer, and am finding that I don't go in the middle of the night as often. Getting to bust some zzz's is awesome!

Best Moment This Week: Getting more and more comfortable that this little one is here to stay.  God has tried and tried to get through my thick skull, but alas, I'm quite good at hitting the "ignore" button on his calls. I know that I was created for this very thing, but sometimes its hard to believe that I could be this blessed. While I haven't stuggled with infertility, I still find myself identifying with Sarah...except for the letting Sugarbeet sleep with someone else part..Lol.

Belly Button In or Out: In

Cravings/Aversions: Neither. I've been up for anything lately.

Symptoms: Still. back. pain. The girls still hate life too, but other than that I've been okay. OH, I almost forgot the best symptom of all, my linea negra has showed up!!!! I present the bottom half of my belly to any lady who will look so that I can proudly show my first exterior sign of our little one. SB loves it, he thinks its adorable, and I find it extremly reasuring. *hand cupped to one side of mouth: don't tell anyone, but sometimes I go to the restroom at work to look at it.* Also, I've had to go much more during the day, and of course when I get there I'm treated to the relief of tinkle tinkle tinkle...yeah a reeeal potty emergency here.

What I'm Looking Forward To: Continuing to grow and change

Things I Wish I Would Have Known: I knew everyone was going to have their opinion, but I wish I would have known that it was going to be impossible to avoid hearing it! I think that pregnancy should be don't ask, don't tell. Also, I wish my co-workers would stop being so conscerned with me getting fat.
