12 Weeks

For some reason 12 weeks just seemed like a milestone for me. It is 3 months, almost 2nd trimester, and now it just seems "real"...so from this point on out, I plan to document the weekly milestones with a picture and a survey. Here is Survey 1, Week 12:

• How Many Weeks: 12 weeks, 0 days

• Weight Gain: about -5. (yes, I am down about 5 pounds)
• How big is baby?: well according to Baby Center "Your baby is just over 2 inches long — about the size of a lime — and weighs half an ounce"
• Maternity clothes?: Yes please, my stomach is super sore due to the high volume of vomiting, so I was in maternity pants around 9 weeks, not for size, but for comfort. I mainly live in T-Shirts and Justin's boxers.
• Stretch marks?: Right near my belly button, in a crescent shape.
• Sleep?: Yes, sometimes I nap all day, other days I can get a good 16 hours of solid sleep in my bed.
• Movement?: Nothing yet.
• Food cravings?: Currently, pickles in the middle of the night, Filippi's Lasagna and Salad, canned peaches, canned pears, soup (clam chowder and chicken noodle).
• Labor signs?: Nada, thank goodness.
• Belly button in or out?: Still very in.
• What I miss: Going more than about an hour without peeing, riding in the car without getting sick, sleeping on my stomach without feeling pressure.
• What I'm looking forward to: Seeing Minley in 5 weeks at our next scan. He/she will be 17 weeks 3 days, so we may find out the sex...but that is a secret.
• Milestone: I didn't throw up yesterday :)
