How big is baby:
Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — about the size of a carrot. You may soon feel like she's practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.
This week's big developments: You're probably feeling pretty comfortable these days. You're not too big yet, and the usual discomforts associated with early pregnancy are, for the most part, gone. If you're feeling good, relax and enjoy it while you can — the third trimester may bring with it a new crop of complaints. You're also more prone to varicose veins now. As your pregnancy progresses, there's increasing pressure on the veins in your legs; higher progesterone levels, which may cause the walls of your veins to relax, can make the problem worse. You're more likely to get varicose veins if other family members have them.
Weight gain/loss: I don't regularly weigh myself
Maternity clothes: Same- I need a few more "work pants."
Best moment this week: Registering was fun to do! It was nice t get started. I look forward to after the gender reveal adding more gender specific items.
Movement: Grandma Marrie felt baby move. Daddy is too "freaked out" to come near my belly.

Miss Anything: Not being so emotional!!
Food cravings: Chocolate. I went to the store and purchased dark chocolate m &m's, chocolate covered raisins and chocolate ice cream.
Symptoms: Same as last week: I am easily tired (a few meetings or activities and I am done), Dizziness or lightheadedness when I stand to quickly or come up from the basement. I notice I run into things/ bump corners. I have been so emotional --crying for no reason or just because I am overwhelmed.
Sleep: Sleeping has been horrible!!! I toss and turn and just want to sleep on my back (which I have never wanted to in my life). I may need to try the bed in the spare room or get a recliner ;)
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing
