So on Friday, I started week 13 and this week the fetus is the size of a medium shrimp according to things I've been reading. Now, to me a lime seems bigger than a shrimp, so I think that is an odd thing to compare it to. (I'm taking the images of these objects from babycenter.com where I spend an inordinate amount of time reading.) I'm almost into the 2nd trimester. Yay! And I'm no longer going to talk about how I'm feeling because I always jinx it when I say anything. So mum's the word. :-)
PS - Pregnant woman or people who are sensitive to smells should NOT go into port-a-potties in the parking lot of trailheads! I didn't even think about it and immediately came out and threw up all over the parking lot. Mat was several cars down and peered around wondering if I was okay. I was fine after that and we went on a very lovely hike to some beautiful waterfalls, which I'll write about later when I have some pictures to attach.
A book I also really like is "Your pregnancy week by week" or something like that. I'm sure you could find it at the library/thrift store. It has an actual size picture of the fetus every week (until it no longer fits on the page). So sorry about the morning sickness...there really is nothing worse. Just be glad you don't have to change poopy diapers:) That killed me.
