~ 13 Weeks

Today on Wednesday, I am 13 weeks along. Once this week is over I will begin my second trimester which is very exciting for me. My doc said I should be starting to feel our baby between now and next week. I think I have already felt him/her, but it's been very hard to tell since I have been experiencing some serious gas bubbles lately, but that has since mellowed out so maybe very soon:) I have also been experiencing pain with my syatic nerve. When I was pregnant with Brody I didn't have pain with that until my last trimester, and it was on my right side. Now it's in my left. I think it may be due to my exercising...but don't know for sure, and of course I forgot to ask the doc about it...oh well. Looking at my picture that JC just took of me, I have noticed that I have really popped. Before I was just looking poochey, but now I look like a 5 monther:O I have only gained 3 lbs, which is significantly different from my last pregnancy, and so I know it's NOT just a fat belly. Doc Bratteli and everyone else I have talked to that has been pregnant at least twice has told me that you do start showing much earlier the second time around...I had no idea I would show this much so soon though...oh well...I LOVE it, our babys are worth it:)
