12 Weeks!




How far along? 12 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: I'm now down one pound from pre-pregnancy weight. I can't figure out why. I'm pretty sure I gained three in each breast alone already!

Pregnancy Symptoms: I've been getting a little sick to my stomach. But, other than that, just the fatigue still.

Maternity clothes? Mat clothes from here on out!

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: Only when M lets me. Lately, he's been up a couple times a night and I'm like a zombie during the day.

Best moment this week: When I took the bean to see Bon Jovi! I have to expose this child to good music early.

Movement: No movement that I can feel from the inside. But, I'm pretty sure I could feel my uterus from the outside this morning. It was very cool and I made Rob feel it too.

Food cravings: I just crave food in general.

Gender: I'm starting to feel girl.

Belly Button in or out? In

What I miss: Coffee

What I am looking forward to: Our NT scan is on Thursday of this week. I'm really looking forward to the long ultrasound so we can just watch the bean for a while.

Milestones: Not much.

11 Weeks!




How far along? 11 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: I'm back down to my weight from before this pregnancy.

Pregnancy Symptoms: Well, last night, I had my first bout of true morning sickness. After a fantastic dinner at a nice steakhouse, I lost my dinner in a parking lot on the way home. =(

Maternity clothes? Yes. I wore my new Motherhood Maternity top to dinner last night. It's from the Heidi Klum collection and it's so comfy.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: I've started sleeping with my Snoogle again. It's like the Berlin Wall in our bed, but it helps me sleep so soundly.

Best moment this week: When Rob took M to his mom's to swim and I had a few hours to myself on Sunday.

Movement: I still think it's too early. But, I'd swear that I felt some movement last week while lying on the couch.

Food cravings: None really.

Gender: I still don't have a feeling either way. Rob thinks it's another boy.

Belly Button in or out? In

What I miss: Pinot Noir.

What I am looking forward to: Getting out of the 1st Trimester.

Milestones: Nothing major this week...other than the morning sickness.

10 Weeks!



How far along? 10 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Still at one pound

Pregnancy Symptoms: Pregnant brain and headaches. I wonder if one has to do with the other.

Maternity clothes? Yep! Haven't bought anything new but am considering another pair of shorts. Only having two means much, much more laundry for me.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: I love sleep. Especially when M lets me have it.

Best moment this week: Not one particular moment, but I'm starting to relax a little with this pregnancy and not worry so much.

Movement: Too early.

Food cravings: Ice cream

Gender: I have no idea.

Belly Button in or out? In

What I miss: My friend, Hunter, (and her kiddies) who left after spending a long weekend with us.

What I am looking forward to: Our next appointment. It's just paperwork, but I just feel like I want everything in order.

Milestones: 1/4 of the way through today! Woohoo!

9 Weeks!




How far along? 9 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Still at one pound

Pregnancy Symptoms: Pregnant brain. It's bad. Very, very bad.

Maternity clothes? Oh yes. Definitely can't fit into regular clothes anymore.

Stretch marks? Nope.

Sleep: Would love it.

Best moment this week: Starting my 3rd month. I'm so relieved and excited since we haven't gotten this far since M came along.

Movement: Too early.

Food cravings: Ice cream

Gender: I still don't have a feeling one way or another. But, the girls at the Early Intervention parent group did the "ring on a string" thing and it came out as girl.

Belly Button in or out? In

What I miss: A nice cold beer on a super hot day.

What I am looking forward to: Shopping for this baby. I already have some things in mind that I want to get but until we know the gender, I don't think we'll be doing any of that.

Milestones: Nothing new in the way of milestones. Just trying to enjoy every day of this pregnancy. Last night, I realized that I'll be a quarter of the way through this pregnancy next week. It's flying by!
