Mark and I are expecting our first child! We found out almost 2 weeks ago and it has been a complete whirlwind of emotions! Now that the shock has worn off, we're very excited, but I would be lying if I said we I wasn't freaking out when I first took that little test! Now that we have told our close friends and family, I want to start updating my poor neglected blog with details of our pregnancy and how we're preparing! Enjoy!
Week 7
How far along? 7
weeks, 1 day
Baby is the size of a: Blueberry (I also heard
m&m, which I love for us!)
Total weight gain: none
so far
Maternity clothes? Nope, but I hate pressure against my stomach.
Sweatpants are amazing.
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: I would sleep
all day if I could
Best moment this week: Telling
my close friends!
Miss Anything? No,
alcohol sounds disgusting. Coffee even smells nasty.
Movement: Nope
Food cravings: Varies day by day, but some have included Kraft Mac
n Cheese, Orange Chicken and sticky rice from Two Blokes and a Bus!
Anything making you queasy or sick: EVERYTHING. The sight of food, the smell of pretty much anything, talking about food,
ok, literally, everything.
Gender: Mark wants a
boy, I want a girl.
Labor Signs: None
Symptoms: Mild cramping,
intense nausea, some vomiting…
Belly Button in or out? In...and I hope it stays that way!
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Mostly happy (besides feeling miserable), but I’ve
been known to cry at a car commercial…
Looking forward to: Being able to make our first appointment! Just
waiting on my referral letter from Tricare!
