Well, I have not wanted to accept it, but it has come time that i accept that my due date is December 19th and that means that I have had to wait till FRIDAY to say that I am 13 weeks. It makes me feel like I am so much farther behind now; even tho it is like a 3 day difference and truly means nothing because the chances of me having my bundle of joy on December 19th is highly unlikely..
Which means that NOW I am 13 weeks, NOW I am beginning my 4th month of pregnancy, and NOW I am starting my 2nd Trimester. This week my baby is the size of a peach; which is 3 inches and weighs nearly an ounce- even more exciting the head is now 1/3 the baby's body size, opposed to half the baby's body size a few weeks ago. Baby has formed its own unique set of finger prints on those tiny finger tips, baby's urinary tract is working- which means baby is urinating the amniotic fluid that has been swallowed, teeth and vocal chords and forming, and the intestines are moving from the umbilical cord into Baby's tummy.
While Baby is busy working in my belly I can definitely feel some changes on my side! My belly is getting harder and harder and even tho there is no changes for the public I can feel the changes in the shape of my stomach and low low down I can feel my uterus so give it time, but I assure everyone that everything is happening. I am plenty tired all the time, but of course I can hardly sleep a wink. I need some new pillows - especially one of those huge comfy prego pillows; it can pretend to be my new cuddle buddy. And there is definitely a new hunger going on in there and I am trying my best to satisfy it but staying relatively healthy- which is so hard when you are eating constantly. I am proud of myself for staying clear of fast food for over a month - almost 2 months now that I think of it. Which probably helps with not gaining weight like crazy. But with baby getting bigger I am seeing how I need to keep up with my end of the deal.
oh goodness- time to try to sleep.
