Pregnancy Highlights...
How Far Along: I'm 13 weeks! Actually, we may be a bit further along than this! Friday we had an ultrasound and the nurse said our baby is measuring a little bigger. So, we may be due about 5 days earlier than we had been thinking, which would put my due date at April 26! I am sure we will find out more information after we meet with our doctor!
Size Of Baby: Baby Hornaday is the size of a peach.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 7 lbs.
Maternity Clothes: I am still wearing all of my normal clothes. My jeans are really uncomfortable, but I don’t feel like I should buy new ones yet because I am just getting bigger. I really want to go shopping and get more outfits I can wear with leggings.
Gender: We are SO excited to find out! I was REALLY hoping we would be able to find out at our ultrasound on Friday, but it was too soon!
Movement: No movement yet, but I CANNOT wait to feel this sweet baby move! On Friday my tummy was going crazy and I thought maybe I could feel the baby move, but I think it was just my tummy growling.
Sleep: I am still sleeping great.
What I Miss: Still POP!!
Cravings: This week I have not had any real strong cravings. I can always eat an apple and this week I ate a lot of candy!
Symptoms: I have continued to have some pretty bad headaches this week and some pain in my side, but other than that I have felt great.
Best Moment This Week: This week was filled with amazing moments. We had our 2nd doctor appointment on Tuesday and were able to hear the heartbeat for the first time. It was one of the most amazing sounds James and I have ever heard! I wish I could listen to that little heart beating every day! The heart rate was 144 on Tuesday. On Friday, we were able to have our first ultrasound. Oh my word, I can hardly describe the feeling. It was absolutely amazing! The picture was so clear and we could see our sweet baby so well! I could not believe how developed all of his/her body parts were! We could see the tiny hands, feet, fingers and toes! He/she moved it’s hand while we were looking, so it looked like he/she was waving at us! The baby liked to have it’s hands up by it’s mouth! Both mommy and daddy were thumb suckers when we were little, so we definitely got a laugh out of this. The nurse said it was still too early to tell the sex of the baby, so we will have to wait a bit longer to find out. We were able to hear the heartbeat again during the ultrasound! The heart rate was 169 on Friday. We got some amazing ultrasound pictures. James and I just can’t stop looking at them! James and I were so excited during the ultrasound that we forgot to take pictures, but hopefully we will remember next time!

Gap maternity has the best pants! I know you are smaller so don't even try old navy maternity...their xs was big on me, so they will be huge on you:)---they fit better at month 8 or 9 which is when i just wore pj pants and a big tshirt all the time!!! haha! Anyway, thought I'd let you know that even though it is expensive at gap, it is worth a one good pair....lilac maternity is super great too...but wayyyyyy expensive...good things Christmas is coming up:) Love checking up on you!!!!! We are expecting our 2nd in May, so it is fun to see where you are since you are ahead of me a few weeks! Congrats again, Em!
