Hey friends! Today marks the start of my 13th week of pregnancy. Most people think 13 is an unlucky number, but not this girl. As someone who identifies herself as having rotten luck, I’ve sort of adopted it as a suitable insignia. I even went so far as to voluntarily choose it as my soccer number in college. And now it’s fitting that our wee baby will be born in 2013.
Further proof that 13 is a good number: this is the first week that I’ve had a
consistently visible baby bump. So from now on (well until around October 23rd,
Lord Willing), Wednesday will be known on the blog as ‘Bump Day’ (cute word
play blatantly stolen from my friend Pam). Last week we had our 12 week
ultrasound and were given 5 photos of the jellybean from various angles. Here
is an inside peek:

PS. How badly do I need a tan? Yikes.
Love your little bump! And I'll have Bump Day updates to look forward to every week!

ReplyDeleteLiving in Aberdeen, I was googling 'Aberdeen blogs' on my lunch hour to see if there was any interesting local blogs worth following - and your's came up first. Spookily however, I'm also expecting our first baby on October 23rd! I'll be following your blog with intent now :) Hope you are well. P.S. Your bump is much cuter than mine!
