13 weeks

Sorry this one is late - should have been last Friday!

How big is baby: the size of a peach!
Weight gain/loss: about a pound since pre-pregnancy.
Pregnancy symptoms: nausea starting to go away, thank goodness! I am still sleeping a lot, but at least I don't feel like I'm going to puke.
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but I think it's time for one of those Belly Bands. I am on my last pair of jeans, which are being held up by a rubber band.
Sleep: yes please. starting to have weird dreams, and I can't quite make it through the night without getting up to go to the bathroom at about 5:30 in the morning.
Best moment this week: getting to tell the rest of our friends at Smitty and Liz's wedding this weekend in Michigan. The wedding was at a beautiful old barn, and Liz rode in on a horse! It was a ton of fun, and I'm glad we got to see old friends we haven't seen in forever.
Food cravings: nothing new - pepperoncinis, and I discovered some amazing strawberry lemonade at Sunflower Market. Best stuff ever.
Food aversions: not really interested in pizza
What I miss: Drinking at weddings and being able to stay out late! Although it was pretty funny watching everyone else while I was sober.
What I am looking forward to:being able to feel the baby move. Sometimes when I am falling asleep, I think I feel something. But it might be dreams, and it might just be gas. 
Milestones: Fingerprints have formed on your baby's tiny fingertips, her veins and organs are clearly visible through her still-thin skin, and her body is starting to catch up with her head — which makes up just a third of her body size now. If you're having a girl, she now has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries. Your baby is almost 3 inches long and weighs nearly an ounce.
