Week 13!This week should be near the end of the queasy phase. Things have been going pretty well. Uneventful for the most part. But I am hungrier and that is a good sign!
According to What to Expect, Shrimp is growing fast, the size of a peach (or this #13 billiard ball) and the head is half of the body size! And baby's vocal chords are developing. Wonder if Shrimp will be a talker...
I am starting to "thicken" if you look closely. By that I mean no hips and it looks like I ate a whole bowl of spaghetti by myself. Maybe in the next month there will be something to show for in a photo!
We are trying to decide what to do in our house next, as far as getting ready for baby. There is still a lot of work to do. The kitchen counters need to be re-grouted (germs!) and the nursery needs to be emptied and painted.
We are also pondering how to decorate the nursery. We are leaning towards a more neutral decor (gender neutral that is). Like green or yellow walls, or a forest scene with Winnie-the-Pooh stuff. But we still might wait until we find the gender and go "all in" for a boy or girl room.
Most recent favorite food: Spinach (who knew?)
Most recent craving: Jalapeno burger
Still can't eat: Fruit - makes me feel HORRIBLE (but then again, I never really liked fruit anyway -- too sugary for my taste!)
Strange behavior: Forgetfulness and feelings of dread ("Are we ready for this life changing event?") My friends say that is normal and they felt it too. Better to be realistic than naive I guess.
mmmmm, jalapeno burger.
ReplyDeleteWhat about that number 12 ball next to it? Also the same size?
But probably not the same as the cue ball on a bar table since those a little smaller so they go to the other return slot.
I think #13 is a bit bigger than #12. But everyone's different so who knows! The peach was taken at any rate! :) However, this billiard ball is still a little green.
