[ 13w4d ]I had my third doctor's appointment yesterday. They drew some blood, I got to hear the baby's heartbeat, and found out I gained a measly half pound. The doctor asked me if I've been eating enough, and I told him I've been eating everything in sight. He said he's not concerned, but for the next three months or so, I should be gaining about a pound a week. I'm glad to be running regularly, and that means I need an extra 300 calories per running day, on top of the extra 300 I should be consuming anyways. Hence all the ice cream. Looking at this picture, though, it looks my face is fattening up nicely.
I felt pretty good all week, short of a few emotional lows. I've been having some pain in my sides, which the doctor said is round ligament pain and most women don't feel it until around week 20. Apparently, he said there's not a lot of room in my "normal, little belly," so I'm feeling it early.
I did notice this week that when I look down, I can see my belly protruding. It's kinda weird (and I assume it will only get weirder).
At my next doctor's appointment, I have my second ultrasound. Exciting!
