| Taken 12 dpo and only cd 23. Early ovulation this cycle! |
7 weeks, 1 day
How far along? 7w, 1d
Total weight: 121
How big is baby? Blueberry!
Maternity clothes: Nothing yet, I'm excited to blame my gut on that fact that Im growing a baby. "No, I'm not sloppy and out of shape, theres a baby in there!" Heh. Actually, Im just out of shape ;)
Stretch marks: Hoping my prior stretchy-ness will suffice for this time around, too.
Sleep: Oh, goodness. I am EXHAUSTED! Ive been going to bed around 9:00, waking up 2 or so times to pee, and then sleeping until just before 8:00.
Movement: I have an ultrasound scheduled for next Tuesday. I've just been feeling like "nobody's home" in there and I really want to know for piece of mind. Hoping to see our sweet little baby's heart beat flickering on the screen and maybe even wiggling around.

Food cravings: Yesterday I wanted a cheese hoagie with super crunchy vegetables so bad. I got it and it was soaked in oil and the nastiest thing ever. Such a let down. I also wanted a strawberry limeaid (hmm, I could go for one now...) and remembered that our ice cream maker can be used to make mixed drinks. I dumped like 3 different types of juice into and 15 minutes later...whammo. So good.
Food aversions: Nothing in particular, but most days, nothing really sounds good. It's not like when I was pregnant with Judah where Id see a food commercial and want to die. Smells aren't bothering me.
Belly button: Regular
Symptoms: Exhaustion. Ive been having moments where I feel shaky and need to eat something ASAP. Some days, Im just starving all day long. My boobs are sore and grown quite a bit. Frequent urination.
Preterm labor stuff: It would be such a blessing if this is something I didn't need to worry about. Im hoping the tips and tricks I learned from the first two go-rounds will help me stay ahead of any battle I might face in this department.
What I'm looking forward to: Definitely the ultrasound on Tuesday. I just really want that re-assurance that I havent had a missed miscarriage since I'm not really bloated and because there's no real nausea going on.
Not baby related: Took the kids to their first movie theater movie today. They replayed the Lego Movie. Judah was afraid to go because we wouldnt be able to fast forward through the scary parts but he faced his fear and did it. He only loudly announced,"I can't look! I'm scared of this!" a few times ;) Aylah didn't seem to mind and laughed through lots of it. She started to get bored at the end though, but over all did very well...and didnt have a break down when she realized other people had movie snack packs with drinks, and she wasn't going to get any.
Weekly joy: The weather has been really beautiful lately. Ive been feeling pretty crappy during the day, so have been feeling quite guilty about not enjoying it...BUT, we have been taking walks as a family after dinner and I've so enjoyed that. So, so much. AND I trash picked Aylah a bike last night! Awesome, right?!
