13 Weeks!

So, baby is 13 weeks this week! It is so hard to believe it has already been 13 weeks. I know it is has been a few weeks since my last post, but August is the busiest month for me at work. I don't have a ton of extra time. But August is almost over (also hard to believe), so I have a little more free time. Will and I are keep having these realizations that yes, we are indeed pregnant and baby is on its way! :) We have started to think about baby names and have list going, so that is also really exciting to think about. In 6-7 weeks we will find out the sex of the baby and we are very anxious for that. Many people are making predictions, so we will see who is right.

13 Week Report! :)

• How big is baby? The size of a peach.
  
• Maternity clothes? Nope, still wearing my normal clothes. Although my pants are starting to feel a little tight.

• Milestone: We are 13 weeks pregnant! And we are now in the second trimester.

Baby's now the size of a peach!
Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords...savor this, their nonfunctional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with his head now only one third the size of his body. And intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy -- much more convenient.
