13 week stats:

how far along? 13 weeks 5 days
total weight gain/loss? still sitting at -5 pounds
maternity clothes? still working the belly band, however, i'm looking to invest in some maternity shorts. i wouldn't say my shorts are 'tight' on my waist, it's just that anything that is tight on my tummy is uncomfortable.
stretch marks? not yet. i'm waiting for that nasty line to show up.
sleep? i'm doing better this week, as i haven't felt that naps are a MUST this week.
best moment this week? i went four days in a row without taking zofran. yay!
movement? no movement, but i am starting to feel where the baby is though - the really hard part of my tummy.
food cravings? still on the ice cream kick... i've also starting making a special drink in the afternoon - fresca and cranberry juice. yummy. oh, and i've started drinking A LOT of sweet tea, which is really unlike me.
gender predictions? even though i'm going against everything i've said from the beginning, i'm feeling that maybe we're having a little girl? just because i feel totally different from last time. but don't worry, i have big plans for either a boy or a girl.... :)
what i miss: being able to wear anything in my closet. since i'm in that in between stage, sometimes i feel like 'showing' my small, growing tummy and sometimes i don't. it takes forever to find something to wear... and the worst part is that all of my maternity clothes are fall/winter!!! i'm opposite seasons of last time!
what i'm looking forward to: being able to make plans for the nursery and brady's big boy room.
how are you feeling? i'm slowly getting my energy back and slowly being able to eat more than a slice of cheese pizza....
comparisons to last pregnancy? i meant to talk about this last week, but my body is totally different this pregnancy. my hair is oily and flat. my nails are growing like weeds, as well as the hair on my legs! (TMI?) I can't keep them shaven!! Is this normal?
milestones? i got my first pimple this week. i never - ever- get pimples... maybe an occasional whitehead around my period - but nothing more than that. last preganancy they would pop up by what seemed like the dozens overnight! so, i guess it's going to be a long few months for my face!

for what its worth: savannah caused me to crave sweet tea (literally, gallons of it) and same thing with the hair/skin/nails/leg hair thing. I felt like it was a completely different pregnancy than with ethan...

So I am thinking -- maybe its a girl!

I am thinking it's a girl...but not b/c of the hair/nail/skin - I LOVE these weekly update things! Last time my hair and skin were NAAAASTY. Hair - why even shave my legs - I would get a noon shadow?!? ugh. This time - my face is better - my hair is AMAZING. weird, huh?!?!? I still think this is a boy bambino. I just think he is being nicer to me?!?! ;) I will put my 16 week update after our appt on Thursday. I think Baby Leach 2 is a G.I.R.L.

Congrats Becky!! I've known for a while since Jeff told Matt a while back, but I'm glad I can officially congratulate you!!

I love your little pregnancy updates. I love reading about people's pregnancies. It gives me ideas of what it will be like for me someday!!
