13 weeks

How far along? 13 weeks 4 days

Total weight gain/loss: Still down 6 pounds from when I started weighing - at about week 5 or 6.

Maternity clothes? Nope, still in my normal clothes

Stretch marks? No

Sleep: Still tired

Best moment this week: Getting an email from my MIL saying that she was thinking about me, and the baby - it was really sweet.

Movement: nope

Food cravings/aversions: not really - but the other day I did finish off a little cup of salsa with a fork b/c I ran out of chips, and I couldn't let perfectly good salsa go to waste.

Belly Button in or out? In

What I miss: nothing

What I am looking forward to: Dr appointment on Monday

Weekly Wisdom: tell everyone face to face - it's great to see people's reactions when you tell them you are pregnant. I was in a mtg the other day, and we hadn't started yet, and were talking about Bigge.st Los.er. They were talking about how they will be starting it back up for our floor in Jan. I laughed and said something to the effect of I couldn't join them, a few knew what I meant, but one lady didn't know, and she asked 'why'. I just plainly said that I was pregnant - she nearly flipped out - it was great.

Milestones: getting out of that first trimester - only 2 more to go - but also knowing that the risk of miscarriage is very low at this point (even though it doesn't stop me from the occasional worry)

Symptoms: Tiredness, and eating random foods - like a little bit ago I had some pickled okra and bread & butter pickles.... what is it with pregnant women and pickles??? Seriously, if I wasn't pregnant I would have gone for the bag of chocolate bars sitting on the counter.
