12 weeks

 How far along: 12 weeks
Baby Growth: Baby is about 2 inches long and weighs about half an ounce! Reflexes are starting to happen and if I were to mess with my belly where baby is he or she would probably squirm in response. He or she can open and close fingers and hands! Baby even looks like a tiny human now!!! woohoo!
My Symptoms: I've  been feeling pretty good, however 12 weeks has rolled in with headaches which I haven't had in a while!
 
Nausea is for the most part gone. I have still had some issues here and there, but nothing like it was which in all honesty wasn't too bad.
 
I still don't want most foods and find it hard to think of something good to eat. I've been eating more though it seems, so I need to watch it because I really want to watch my weight this time. I want to start walking every night or morning, but I have to get rid of the headache/nausea before I can get myself out there to do it!
Gender:  I still think maybe a boy
Weight gain:  I haven't weighed myself today. I don't think I have gained anything. if so its only a pound.
Maternity clothes: Not really. I basically live in tshirts, yoga shorts/pants, or scrubs. If I do get dressed up I will typically wear maternity shorts, but regular shirts are still ok if they fit loosely. I need to also make myself start actually getting dressed instead of being so lazy. 
Stretch marks: No new ones, but the old ones are still there and visable
Belly button in or out: In, but it seems bigger?
Sleep: Still sleeping great! Most nights anyway. dreams are still weird. I don't remember having this many weird dreams with Lakelyn. I know I did have some weird vivid ones with her, but not every night like this time.
Best moment this week: We have had some decent mornings the past couple of days. By no means is it "amazing" or "cool" weather, but you can sit outside with out sweating or having a heat stroke. So we've spent the morning outside for a bit before coming back in. I'm so ready for the heat to go away for good. although, i'm assuming it'll be another hot fall/winter around here :(
Worst moment this week: The headaches for sure. Its also making me short tempered and lose my patience easier with Lakelyn which I feel so bad about.
Miss anything:  I wasn't totally happy with my body before this pregnancy, but I was getting close to pre-Lakelyn weight. I am just at a point in pregnancy where it just looks like i'm gaining weight and getting fat instead of pregnant and I hate it.
Movement: nope.
Cravings: No
Queasy or sick: queasy if I don't eat still!
Questions/Concerns: none at the moment
Looking forward to:  Our ultrasound next week! Hoping they will let us sneak a peek between the legs! Cooler weather and feeling good so we can get outside and start doing some walking.
Belly Pictures: I did a normal belly picture, I created the chalkboard, but I haven't gotten dressed and taken a picture with the chalk board yet. It is progress though right?
