12 weeks & still bump-less

Seriously, where's my bump? I'm a skinny girl so why no belly still? Of course the day after Noel took this I started having severe stomach and low back pains FOR 3 DAYS straight. Turns out the round ligament muscles in my stomach decided to start stretching all at the same time. I guess that teaches me to complain about no bump. Yesterday at work I put Icey-Hot strips on my back and stomach, helped for a bit.

Now I am officially pregnant to the outside world, I started telling coworkers and let me tell you I totally get 3 breaks a shift now (previously unheard of except on super slow days). "You gotta go feed that cute little parasite." I do think calling Panchita a parasite is both cute and freaky, as we inherently think of parasites as negative. But Panchita lives off what I eat, takes me energy and makes me feel sick, so really it fits! My well-loved peach sized parasite :)

Here is my belly during the 3 days of s-t-r-e-t-c-h. Does it look any bigger yet? I guess it wasn't the Mayo that was making my tummy hurt after all....
