I hit 13 weeks on Monday, and I was pretty pumped before that. Everyone kept saying just wait until you hit 13 weeks you will feel so much better. So on Monday morning I got out of bed, expecting to feel better, but as usual had to run to the bathroom and threw up all that was in my stomach. And at 7am there really isn’t much to throw up, which makes it almost worse, as your body still tries to get rid of what it think is there, that really isn’t there. I’ve been throwing up each morning for 4 weeks straight and it’s getting a little old. So hopefully that stops soon. This week baby is the size of a peach (~3 inches). One neat fact about baby- it has fingerprints now!
I think you will notice that in my 13 weeks photo my belly looks considerably bigger (in my opinion) then in my 12 week photo. But I will give the same description that I did to my last belly photos. I’m pretty sure it’s all bloat. As soon as I lay down my belly looks totally normal. Scott thinks that it feels a bit harder then it did a few weeks ago, I game him a look and said “Actually my stomach was ALWAYS that hard” hahahaha…
13 weeks
At home I feel so lazy. As soon as I get home all I want to do is lay down, so now my house is a total mess and I care but don’t have the energy to clean it up. Scott has been great, cooking dinner most nights and totally giving in to my cravings (which are pretty much made up at this point but it’s so fun to be able to get away with junk food now!). I’m still always starving and now can’t remember what it feels like to be full. At dinner time I have to sit there for much longer then usual, and slowly get my fill of food, until I think I’m full or can’t stand the thought of eating one more bite.
Tonight we are going out for dinner which is always a challenge. Will I find something on the menu that doesn’t make me gag just thinking about it? Wish me luck!

You look awesome! And give McHottie a pat on the head and a “good boy” for me. Enjoy your meal tonight, don’t even glance at the burger section
It seems like just yesterday I was at 13 weeks, time sure does fly by! Get as much rest as you can now, and take advantage of those “cravings”, this is the only opportunity you will ever have to not feel guilty about eating just one more ice cream bar. Afterall the baby is hungry, right?

Eeek! Congrats on being in the second trimester and I hope you feel better soon. I can sort of see a little bump there…so exciting!
Aaaaw! I can so totally relate with you. It does get better in second trimester usually 2 weeks into it. I had the most horrible first trimester and I thought it would never end. I am in my second trimester and I am 20 weeks, it feels so much better. Good luck on your pregnancy.
Hey Lovie!
So, since I’m moving back to your side of Toronto for good this weekend I just wanted to say that I am totally volunteering to come down to visit you on weekends and do ANY housework/meal cooking or freezing/gardening etc that you need but don’t feel like doing.
I’m 100% at your beck and call whenever – I also do fun shopping trips! All yours! Love you!
Awh you look great Kate!
Wishing you all the best and awhhhh even more at Scott!!
