12 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along:  12 weeks

Size of baby:  about the size of a lime!

Total Weight Gain:  7.5 lbs.  I'm down a lb!   This is crazy!  I was a weight gaining machine last pregnancy.  I get that 7.5 lbs is a lot for the first 12 weeks, but it was all early, when I was eating Wendy's hamburgers every day for lunch.  

Maternity Clothes: I'm about half and half.  Maternity pants are too big, but SO comfortable!

Gender: We aren't finding out.  We think it's a boy. Murrays only have boys!

Movement: Way too early to feel movement.  I didn't feel Jack until 21 or 22 weeks.

Sleep: Sleep is ok.  I have to get up to go to the bathroom at least once a night and once in a while I have a hard time getting back to sleep.  It's better now, because Jack is out of our bed!

What I miss: Being able to wear clothes.  I'm in such an inbetween stage right now.  I'd go all out maternity but most of my maternity clothes are summer clothes....and well, it's not summer yet. 

Cravings: Nothing really.  

Symptoms: fatigue. and random pains.   Today, a really bad pain that seems like it's my sciatic nerve.   Great.

Best Moment this week:   Realizing that it has been over 1 month since I last nursed Jack and he's been out of our bed for a week.   2 goals that I thought it would take 9 months to take care of....we did it in about 1 month!
