Baby #1 ; Week 8

Today's date: August 20, 2011 ( Again, taken yesterday! )

How far along: 8 weeks

Total weight gain: Still not sure, some days I'm up 3lbs, some days I'm back where I started. Today, probably up 3lbs from the fullness of my stomach hahaha.

Size of the baby: 0.63 ; size of a raspberry.

Sex: Too soon to tell!

Maternity clothes: None! ...yet. My pants are getting tighter, though.

Sleep: Sleeping ok. I get up now, about every 3 hours to go pee. And my hips hurt pretty badly. Trying to not sleep on my stomach anymore, it hurts not to!

Best moment(s) of the week: None. This was a rough week...emotionally. I was all over the map. Poor M.

Movement: Nadda.

Food cravings: Still cereal and pizza, or tacos. I really want chicken curry salad!

Food aversions: None really this week. Not a big fan of meat still...just in the mornings.

Morning sickness: Still off and on. But wasn't too bad this week.

Symptoms: Tired all the time. Hip pain when sleeping. Crabby x's 832782351. Breaking out bad!

Labor signs: Too soon.

Belly button in or out: In.

What I miss: Having energy! Being able to not want to fall asleep at 2pm.

What I'm looking forward to: Next Thursday for our first doctors appointment!



We were supposed to see the doctor last Thursday, but the nurse wasn't going to be in the office, so we had to reschedule. We were bummed. We go this Thursday morning now. We will be able to update with, hopefully, a sonogram! Along with Week 9 (Starts today!) picture and update :)
