12 Weeks

At 12 weeks...

This picture was taken a couple days after Little Baby Fernandez turned 12 weeks. We were heading out to Israel's aunt's house to celebrate 4 birthdays.

I look very pregnant there, don't I? It's only 12 weeks, but I guess it depends on the outfit. I think I show more with pants than dresses. (Sorry for the hair, I don't know what was going on with my hair that day. I'll make sure to fix myself up better for the next pictures :-) )

Now for a little fun...

I'll be doing this for the rest of my weekly posts so we can track my pregnancy even better.

How far along? 12 Weeks, 3 Days

Total weight gain/loss: 5lbs :-/ (They say I should only gain 5lbs during the first trimester and I still have one more week...)
Maternity clothes? 2 pair of maternity leggings (love them!) and 1 pair of maternity jeans. I also have 2 pairs of maternity dress pants, but I need to get them hemmed. I haven't worn them yet.
Stretch marks? No. I am itchy, but I try not to scratch. When I get too itchy, I slather on some Mustela Cream.
Sleep: Still SUPER tired, but I'm still not the napping type. I'll go to sleep around 7:30-8:00pm.
Best moment this week: Hmmmm...I laughed a lot at Israel's aunt's house. I do want to laugh a lot during my pregnancy so Little Baby Fernandez comes out happy :p
Have you told family and friends: Yes! All my close friends know. I told my grandma on my mom's side, and my dad called his brothers and sisters to tell them "Ya soy abuelo!" haha
Miss Anything? Coffee!!!! Soda!!!! and I have been craving Hot Dogs a lot.
Movement: Not yet.
Food cravings: Hot Dogs. Fries at times. A few weeks ago, all I wanted was cake, cupcakes, and chocolate cookies with milk. But that only lasted a few days.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing in particular. Israel's niece was drinking a breakfast shake and the smell made me sick.
Have you started to show yet: I think so. No one has said anything at work, but I've been trying to cover my bump until next week.
Gender prediction: Boy... even though since I was so nauseous last week, I thought I might be having a girl. I'm still predicting a boy, though.
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Next weeks 13-week Ultrasound! I'm soooo excited, yet nervous. I can't wait to see Little Baby Fernandez!
