A Stratton Life: 13 Week Update!

Hey y’all! This is my week 13 update & belly pictures!

Baby S is the size of a peach (2.9 inches) and 0.81 ounces this week!

Baby is also…

· * Forming vocal cords & teeth

· * Has finger prints

· * Intestines are moving from the umbilical cord to their more permanent place, in its tummy

My symptoms this week

· * I’m SO tired

· * Trouble sleeping

· * When I do sleep, my dreams usually wake me up (they are so vivid and scary at times!)

· * I’m still hungry most of the time, but I’m having trouble finding anything that sounds good

· * My lower back, top of my butt is extremely sore

· * A lot of pain on my right side under my ribs. It is so painful it takes my breath away. I did occasionally have this pain before I got pregnant, however it is more constant now. I don’t have a gall bladder, so it’s not that... I will ask my midwife about it at my next visit

· * My emotions have been a roller coaster ride lately. I will be happy one minute, needy the next, mad and sad. For some reason I’ve felt so lonely and scared. Hopefully these feelings will end soon!

We have a gender ultrasound on November 1^st (one week from today)!!! We are so excited!! We are just praying for a healthy and happy baby! I love hearing what everyone thinks we are having. Most people are saying a boy, while some say a girl. I honestly feel like its going to be a boy. I’ve thought this from day one!

Now I will share some belly pictures!
