How far along? 12 weeks 1 day
Weight gain/loss: -8lbs.
Feeling: Hungry and tired.
Maternity clothes? With the 8 lbs loss I'm still wearing pre-pregnancy jeans and a belt. I just leave the button undone. I am wearing maternity tops but I think that is because of my boobs. My regular shirts are not long enough.
Sleep: I sleep from about 9:30 or 10pm until 10 am. I am ok during the day as long as I sleep ok at night. I am sleeping while I can!
Food cravings: Nothing yet.
Movement? No, too early.
What I miss? Nothing yet.
Best moment this week: I had an u/s last week and got to see baby moving around!
What I'm looking forward to: We have our laundry room torn apart doing a remodel (tile and paint). It should be done this weekend. I will be glad to get everything out of the living room!
Next Appointment: First Midwife appt. January 15th.
Milestones: The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it. His intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine into his bladder.
Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. His face looks unquestionably human: His eyes have moved from the sides to the front of his head, and his ears are right where they should be. From crown to rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce. (taken from BabyCenter.com)
