How far along: 8 weeks 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: Uh, probably a few pounds at least. I seem to gain a lot in pregnancy, plus I have some leftover bloat from the meds.
Maternity clothes: Yes and no. I have 1 pair of pants that still fit (belly band) and I wear larger cut shirts.
Stretch marks: Leftover ones from DD. None that are getting bigger or anything...Yet.
Sleep: Sleeping ok, belly is getting bigger so side sleeping will be starting soon. Bought a Snoogle, used it a few times before my trip to New Orleans and I miss it!
Movement: Ha! Not yet, I expect it will come earlier than with DD though.
Cravings/Aversions: Cravings: None. Aversions: Any odor and food. Haven't been hungry, when I have the food right in front of me I am ok though. Smelled someone cooking bacon last night around 11:30pm (living in barracks on my trip) and it grossed me out.
Gender: We are green team. Finding out at birth. Been having weird feelings it is a boy, but I am doubtful...
Symptoms: Some have gone away. Still have tender chest area, not hungry, bloated and at the point people stare and think I just have a gut. Funny how it starts so much sooner with #2. I can't suck it in anymore...getting that full feeling already.
What I miss: Beer (although it sounds disgusting to me now) and sushi! Oh, yea...I miss Jimmy John's!
What I look forward to: Leaving New Orleans and hugging DH and DD again...for another one = This will be the same throughout pregnancy: meeting my little one.
Moods: Want to hang out watching tv all day. Been feeling a little grumpy and lazy.
Milestones: Making it to 8 weeks...
Medical Concerns: Seeing that heartbeat again....can't wait until the 28th!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Don't go and hang out on Bourbon Street after eating dinner in your first trimester. It smells like rotten garbage and I had to hold back the urge...
Best moment this week: Uh, none actually. Been a boring week.
Worst moment this week: See weekly wisdom above. Definitely the worst moment, well, worst 5 hours I have had in awhile. Not planning on going back there...ever.
Why can't you eat Jimmy Johns?
ReplyDeleteOdors are soooo hard to deal with!! And I look pudgy, too. It's weird to on one hand not care and on another feel fat. LOL.
ReplyDeleteMarie - lunchmeat is a no-no, could have been stored improperly and could have listeria. Not very common but I would rather not risk it considering all the issues I already have.
ReplyDeleteAh, I see. I can't say that I blame you.
