_____________________
How far along: 13 weeks
Total weight gain: I’m hoping more than a pound
Maternity clothes: none, just wearing regular clothes
Stretch marks: the usual
Sleep: I sleep great, I just have these random and crazy dreams. Oh man, my dreams have been off the hook!
Best moment of this week: Having my father fry me some chicken on Friday and my mom bought me some macaroni salad. The food was so delicious!....also, I took my braids out and I absolutely love my hair. Its so full and luscious ;)
This picture doesn't do its justice

Miss anything: having an appetite and eating anything my greedy self desired
Movement: She’s probably doing backflips and everything…but I won’t be able to feel it for another few weeks
Food cravings: none
Anything making you queasy or sick: no, just don’t like certain foods. I couldn’t eat an onion a sandwich this week. And I couldn’t eat my spaghetti.
Have you started to show yet: Not really…
Gender Prediction: girl
Labor signs: No
Belly button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or moody most of the time: Um happy, scared, excited, scared, scared, nervous, and scared.
Looking forward to: My appetite returning
Anything else: I had a weird emotional episode this week. I called my parents crying asking if I could move back with them “because I’m hungry”. Uh, I was a total mess. Mom bought me a supreme pizza from Dominoe’s with hotwings…. This Saturday, I had the most horrible ear ache that lasted through Sunday. I didn’t even go to church, instead I slept all day (until like 3:30pm)…and then on Monday my eyes became swollen. My left eye is more swollen than my right eye. I look a HOT mess. I look like I have a lazy eye or something. UGH!!! I’m waiting for my nurse to call me back. I’m going to take Benadryl when I get home from work and hopefully that will help with the swelling. I really didn’t want to take any medicine, but I’ve done good thus far…and now that I’m in my second trimester, I don’t feel as bad
