13 weeks pregnant with baby #2

How far along? 13 weeks exactly!

Total weight gain/loss: Still no weight gain.  Home scale showing I'm down 9 lbs.  I wonder how much weight I'll actually gain this time.
Sleep: Sleep has gotten a bit more difficult.  I haven't been as tired, but when I do sleep, I sleep HARD!  Which means that I'm not shifting positions enough and my ligaments are sore when I wake up.
Food cravings: I've been wanting fruit, water, fruit snacks, and root beer.  I find that I'm more hungry after I eat than I was before I ate, which can be very frustrating.
Best moment this week:  Seeing Baby V 2.0 via ultrasound during our nuchal translucency screen.  We saw the funniest thing, as soon as the tech started the ultrasound, there is Baby V 2.0 standing on its HEAD.  It was hilarious!!!!!  The tech actually had me change my position so we could get the baby to calm down a bit.
Movement: Still thinking I feel taps at times, but I'm unsure.
Gender: After our ultrasound I'm starting to think boy, we find out for sure on June 12th.  It seems SO far away, but I know that time will fly.
Labor Signs: No way!!!!!

Belly Button in or out? Weird looking and still tender.  Mostly in, but puffy.
What I miss: Normal hormones!  I've been driving my husband crazy and freaking out about things that I have absolutely no control over.
What I am looking forward to: Starting to feel some movement in the next couple weeks.
Milestones: According to some, I'm in the 2nd Trimester!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Don't worry about things that you can't control.  Worrying doesn't solve any problems, it only makes you feel terrible.

I know it seems far away, but June 12th will be here before you know it.
Hang in there!
