12w3d



My 12 week update is a bit late this week, too. The good news is that I'm officially done with working so I can devote the rest of my pregnancy to the important things -- you know, like blogging. No, but really, I'm looking forward to getting in touch with my pregnancy and being able to enjoy it. Because I'm sure it has to get enjoyable at some point, right?

Right now my morning all day sickness has alleviated quite nicely. Right now, however, I'm also spending my evening with a bottle of prune juice and a box of Fi-Bars (I'll let you use your imaginations where I'm going with that one but, please believe, this is agonizing).

...But that's okay because this week, Baby has reflexes! His/her fingers can open and close, his/her toes can curl, his/her mouth will make sucking movements. His/her intestines will start to move into his/her abdominal cavity about now, and his/her kidneys will begin excreting urine into his/her bladder. Baby weighs half an ounce and is the size of a lime.

I'm also officially in maternity jeans. I gave up on my regular jeans on Friday and caved and bought my first pair of maternity jeans on Saturday. I can still wear my regular shirts with no problem, but I'm enjoying the comfort of maternity shirts here and there. Otherwise, things have gotten better...minus the lingering fatigue. And the whole prune juice thing. Minus that, too.
