2nd trimester!!!

Woohoo, I made it out of the first trimester and into the second!  This is really exciting because now chances of anything going "wrong" are SIGNIFICANTLY lower.  

I am 13 weeks today - that is about .81oz and 2.9" - about the size of a peach!  Or, if you are babycenter instead of the bump, the size of a shrimp.  It's kind of weird, I think I prefer produce to seafood.

Not to mention, a shrimp and a peach are not at all the same size... I guess they mean the diameter of the peach vs the length of the shrimp are both about 3"?  And I guess the shrimp is closer in weight to correct representation...

This week, keiki has fingerprints!  A normal baby's head is now only about 1/3 the size of their body.  A baby with an inevitable Baird head probably still has a huge noggin.  They also look pretty darn baby-like to me!

I had an appointment yesterday.  It went well - short & sweet.  We heard the HB which sounded good - and thankfully I had no anxiety about this whatsoever since I have my handy dandy doppler at home.  I really liked the midwife again - same one we had last time.  I am only up .2lbs since my first visit at 5 wks.  My next appointment is Oct 31, and it will be another quick one, before my appt at 18-20 weeks for the "big" ultrasound where we make sure everything looks ok!  I am really looking forward to seeing keiki at that stage!!!

Oh and BONUS!  I threw up at work on Wednesday.  First time :(  So who knows why - I haven't been nauseous, it just happened all of the sudden!  Luckily I did make it to the bathroom, and it was 6:45 so almost no one was here.
