The Belly

I'm definately not in the habit of putting 'exposed' photos of myself up for all to see but a few people have been asking me for the money shot.... So, I put on my best tracksuit and here it is. This is today - at 13 weeks and 4 days. I think I am starting to fill out a little bit where my hip bones used to be, but that could just be all the potato I've been eating. I can't get enough, especially mashed, with salt. Yum.

Morning sickness is still lingering, mainly in the afternoon and evening. Everyone says the best thing to do is eat through the nausea, so I do, then it makes me sick, then I'm hungry again, so I eat, and then I'm sick. It's a vicious cycle. I've been getting some energy back during the day which is a good sign, fingers crossed. No marathons just yet though.

My next doctor's appointment is on 22 December and hopefully we'll be able to find out the baby's sex. We're both dying to know. I have a feeling it's a boy, though everyone else I've spoken to seems to think it's a girl. I absoloutely don't mind either way. Nug says he doesn't either, but I think he 51% wants a boy, as opposed to 49% for a girl. Of course, a healthy bub trumps all.
