Bye Bye 1st Trimester

So I realized I never did a 13 weeks post this week so instead I have decided that I will do something even better...a recap of my experience in the 1st trimester. So here are my experiences so far:

Told Family
: Christmas Day
Told the World: February 16th
Weight gain: -8 pounds (Dr. is not concerned about the loss)
Morning Sickness: I was very lucky in this department. I spent about 3 weeks fairly nauseous but I never got physically ill and I am so thankful for that!
Food Aversions: None other then not wanting to eat anything between 6-8 weeks
Cravings: I have wanted to eat anything sweet and the Bean LOVES pizza! I think I have been bit by a baking bug lately.
Heartbeat: We have seen the heartbeat two times now but the first time was at 7 weeks 1 day. It was such a relief to see it the very first time
Exhaustion: EVERY DAY

In general I felt great through out the first 13 weeks outside of some major exhaustion. There are so many women who spend these first weeks so sick. I am beginning to move into maternity clothes now and they are so comfortable. Now it is time for Beany to spend his/her just growing bigger and bigger.

Lots of changes and things to do over the coming months and we are getting more and more excited by the day! Here's to hoping the 2nd trimester goes as smoothly and the 1st did.
