7w4d- Time to Update

I've been doing good, pretty much nauseous all the time though. When I get the watery mouth feeling, I have an internal fight with myself and try to talk myself out of needing to run to the bathroom. This week, I haven't been winning that battle.

On Wednesday, we had our meeting with our mortgage lady to run our credit again to see if we can get the ball rolling.

A little back story here: I am always the one who wakes up early, so I was up at about 9am and by 10am, I was starving! We went out for Mexican food the night before, so I had my leftovers in the fridge. I decided that I should heat up my taco, rice and beans and eat that. I felt fine until about 1:45pm. We had to leave the house by 2pm to make the 2:30pm appointment.

So for the last 15 minutes before we had to leave, my head was in the toilet. I've always hated throwing up, and this was pretty bad. It felt like I was going to suffocate because as soon as I tried to take a breath, more was coming out.

Lesson learned, no more Mexican food leftovers!

I have been taking weekly pics since Week 4 (because I am a total nerd and Justin says he doesn't want anymore after this one, so I am doing anything and everything I can to document this). I don't think that you can really see anything, especially since I didn't start out "flat". I got some extra fluff going so I don't really expect to see anything until way later.  But I am throwing caution to the wind, and letting you guys see me in all my glory (and bloat)!

 

And I totally forgot about starting the weekly updates, so I figured that I should probably start!

 

How far along: 7w4d

 

Size of Baby: Blueberry!

 

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I weighed myself last week and I was down 4lbs!

 

Maternity Clothes: The red shirt in my 4w pic. I bought new shirts at Old Navy but just in the next size up. I gave in and bought a pair of full panel jeans at Target, but I haven't had to wear them...yet!

 

Gender: We will be Team Find Out!

 

Belly Button In/Out: In

 

Stretch Marks: Nothing new

 

Labor Signs: Nope, and hopefully nothing for another 32 weeks!

 

Movement: Nothing yet

 

Sleep: I'm tired during the day, but I can't nap. I go to bed first and I am the first one up in the morning. I try to get around 8-9 hours a night. I've had some really weird dreams, nothing sexual yet!

 

Cravings/Aversions: I am loving the Chicken Fajita Pitas from Jack in the Box! Does not wanting to cook count as an aversion? I think it's because I don't want to be around raw meat! I convinced Justin to have a bowl of cereal last night for dinner. I'm horrible!

 

Symptoms: I still have the sore boobs, feeling queasy, my nails are growing like mad, the greasy hair, minimal bloat now, and just the general feeling of fatigue

 

Feeling: I am super happy, but for whatever reason, I still can't believe it! And of course, nervous!

 

Best Moment this Week: I told the rest of my family and close friends! Everyone was soo happy and super excited!

 

What I Miss: Eating things without first thinking if it will make me sick later

 

What I am Looking Forward To: Stopping the baby aspirin, meaning one less pill to take!

 

Milestones: Making it to 7w!

 

Baby Milestones: Baby's arms and leg joints are now forming and her brain and heart are becoming more complex! Baby is about .51 inches and has doubled in weight since last week!

 

Next Appointment: I have my first appt with a new OB/GYN on Thursday, March 14!!! I can not wait!
