Total weight gain: 8lbs
Maternity clothes? Yup.
Stretch marks? Still about 4.
Sleep: Does it really even count as sleep? I know I lay down for a long time and feel uncomfortable. I guess that's "sleep"
Best moment this week: Shopping and Lunch with a friend I haven't spent time with in a while.
Movement: Daily!
Food cravings: Chocolate. Apples.
Gender: Boy
Labor signs: Nope
Symptoms: WTF is up with the swelling?! I thought I had this whole pregnancy thing in the bag. I came home from work Friday and I couldn't find my ankles. Pardon! I spent the weekend trying not to do thing to cause swelling and then putting my feet up. My hands like to swell too - especially when I try walk (which I am supposed to be doing). GAH!
Belly button in or out? IN
Wedding rings on or off? On, tho when I walk a lot...they don't want to come off.
Happy or moody most of the time: I'm beyond pissed this week. Our new front office coordinator quit after 10 days. So I'm now doing TWO jobs at the office and will have to train someone new on the front office AND my desk for maternity leave in less than 3 months. The learning curve combined is over a year. I can't even think about how mad this makes me.

 | Comment from mrsamanda » Posted Apr. 9, 2014 11:23am I've noticed that my feet were a little swollen last week but it hasn't been too bad yet. My feet do hurt like pins and needles when I stand for too lok or do too much around the house. |
 | Comment from jennavee » Posted Apr. 9, 2014 10:00am With my first pregnancy, I had a TON of swelling. Never sure what caused it, I was active, watched my sodium intake, drank a lot, etc. It went away almost immediately after delivery though! I'm sorry you're having work stress. :-( I hope things improve soon and you aren't having to run yourself crazy! |
