Mean people

Are the worst!
Especially now that I'm pregnant and even the smallest comment can reduce me to a hysterically shreaking crying crazy person.

Pregnancy widget

I just got a new pregnancy widget that shows how far along I am and shows approximately how big the baby is at that time :)
Thought it was pretty cool.

Here is the info from pregnancycalendar:

Your Body
Feeling dizzy? A lot of pregnant women do at this stage—and while it’s really nothing to worry about, it’s not a fun thing to literally be so out of balance. You might notice dizziness most when you get up from sitting or lying down (you know, that head-rushy feeling), and for that, there’s an easy remedy: Just take it more slowly. This will give your body a few extra seconds to adjust, so that gravity doesn’t cause blood to rush out of your brain from rising too rapidly—and make you feel woozy, as a result. Low blood sugar can also contribute to lightheadedness, so be sure to keep eating small, frequent meals (no skipping!). And make a habit of popping a piece of fruit, a little baggie of cereal, or some nuts in your bag in the morning so you won’t find yourself stuck without something to eat on a crazy run-around day. If the dizziness is severe, of course, check in with your health care provider to rule out any other problems, like anemia or diabetes.

Your Baby
This week, permanent teeth buds will begin to form behind your little one’s baby (or milk) teeth buds, and his reproductive organs are continuing to develop rapidly. If you’re having a girl, her uterus may now be clearly visible on an ultrasound. Having a boy? The testes may be apparent and his penis easily identifiable. So if you haven’t found out the sex—and don’t want to know until D-day—be sure to let your doctor or ultrasound technician know, and ask her to tell you when to look away during a screening. You may not be a pro at reading an ultrasound, but some things (especially in the case of a baby boy) you just can’t miss. Also in the works this week: The baby’s skin will become covered with a white cheese-like coating called vernix caseosa. It clings to the tiny lanugo hairs and forms a protective barrier, keeping your kiddo’s delicate skin from getting chapped or scratched as he moves around.

Me and how I am feeling
I have felt increasingly tired again, which sort fo surprised me as I have been feeling great for the past few weeks and now it's like I'm back in the first trimester (sans the nausea thank god!).
I have my next ultrasound on the 5th of this month, yay! :) I hope to find out the sex of our little angel so that I can start buying some baby clothing!!
