I began my second trimester (13 weeks) with a trip to the doctor's office. This was our first appointment meeting with one of the doctor's. And here begins the journey of meeting with a different doctor every time from now till the end in hopes we connect with one and here's to hoping that doctor will be available when nugget decides to come out.
The appointment was quick with the sole purpose being 1) Hear the heartbeat and 2) Ask questions.
She found the heartbeat pretty quickly and again.... it is the most amazing sound. I wish I had it recorded so I could listen to it all the time. What a beautiful sound. And of course I couldn't think of any questions on the spot and once we left I thought of at least 2. Funny how that works.
Next appointment will be at 17 weeks which puts us at the week before Christmas.
Week: 13 and 14 (entering second trimester)
Due Date: May 27 - Memorial Day!
Size: Nugget is 3.5 inches long and the size of a lemon.
Nausea: Around 8pm the queasiness kicks in.
Aches and Pains: Sharp pinches here and there
Cravings:
- Bagels slathered in cream cheese
- Cold milk
- Last night was Chinese
Bump: It's still hard to tell in my outfits because the baby is so low right now. The doctor said it will begin moving up each week but for now it's still low. If I had a 2 piece swimming suit on, you'd totally be able to tell!
Movement: Not yet! Can't wait to feel flutters and kicks though.
Looking forward to: Finding out if nugget is a boy or girl! January 14 is the big day!
Missing the most: Sleeping well
