9 and 10 Weeks!
By pookerdooks » Posted Jan. 10, 2015 10:35am - 351 views - 0 comments

How Far Along: 10 weeks! But I was so busy last week with New Year's, my son's birthday party, and my household brig sick that I didn't record for 9 weeks so I will be recording for both weeks this time.

How big is the baby: The size of a prune!

Symptoms: Fatigued (sleeping for two), nausea and vomiting, frequent urination, constipation and consequential bloating, and back acne.

Emotions: I've been very irritable to put it nicely. But it is hard to be nice when you are exhausted and nauseated and still cooking three meals a day for your family.

Something Funny That Happend: I was bloating from constipation and a button popped off my pants!

Best moment of the Week: Hearing the strong heartbeat and announcing my pregnancy to my friends and community

Movement: Just gas.

Weight Gain: Negative one pounds. Weighing in at 117.

Maternity Clothes: Not yet but should probably wear a belly band on days when I'm more constipated and bloated.

Stretchmarks: None yet! :)

Sleep: Waking up a couple times a night to use the bathroom. Very vivid dreams.

Food cravings: I'm starting to crave fatty foods... Probably because I'm still about 7 pounds underweight. My doctor is a bit concerned about this.

Gender Predictions: I'm guessing girl at the moment because my doc said my hormone levels were very high and girls tend to cause hormone levels to be 18-20% higher than boys.

What I Miss: nothing at the moment.

What I'm Looking Forward To: the first trimester ending and hopefully feeling better

Weekly Wisdom: Ginger tea works so much better than ginger ale for morning sickness and doesn't have the sugar!

Milestone: making my announcement

Question(s): None
