8 weeks

How far along? 8 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 2lb gain (total 3lb loss)



Your baby is the size of a kidney bean (source)

Maternity Clothes?  nope

Stretch marks?  nope

Sleep?  Body aches so much! Falling asleep is easy, but moving around like I usually do is getting painful, especially with these heavy hooters! Also I'm wide awake at 6am. It sucks.

Best moment this week:  Visiting pre-school to enroll the little one - they are only accepting applications for babies in the womb. And this little one can't get in until July, so s/he'll be 4 months old - almost too old to be enrolled (they stop accepting applicants at 5 months.) ayayay first world problems

Miss Anything?  Sleeping in

Movement:  none

Food cravings:  none

Anything making your queasy or sick?  Nothing specific but I had BAD heart burn Friday so Tums are my new best friend

Have you started to show yet? I've had a "pooch" for the past year, but it's not as "jelly"

Symptoms: Tender hooters and an AWFUL pain in my left hip

Gender:  unknown.

Labor signs:  none

Belly button in or out?  in

Wedding rings on or off?  on

Happy or Moody most of the time?  moody. I don't understand a word my husband is saying. His sentences just don't make sense anymore. Also this week I had to tell my boss I was pregnant, so I could tour the preschool and enroll the kiddo. But I told her "I think I'm pregnant" and her reply was "well, have you taken a test?" uh duh Rachel! You ARE pregnant, you don't think it. It's true. Just say you ARE. But woah - what a commitment.

Looking forward to: first Doctors appointment next week, follow up appointments and then our Honeymoon in Jamaica with the big reveal!
