Baby Length: approximately 4 inches
Baby Weight: almost 2 1/2 ounces
Baby is the size of an: Apple
Maternity clothes? I received another donation from my friend Brie, so my maternity inventory keeps growing. Not wearing any of them yet...but I do feel like I'm getting closer to that point. I was in Boston for work this week working a conference and all of my suit pants are so tight and uncomfortable!
Stretch marks? Not yet. Still lathering up with lotion nonstop. Using a mix of Mustela and Palmer's Cocoa Butter.
Sleeping? Still not sleeping great. I wake up about 3 times a night to pee, and then I spend the rest of the time tossing and turning. I bought a big body pillow which seems to provide some relief - I tried the Snoogle Pregnancy Pillow I got from Brie and I must not be big enough yet because its not really comfortable. I also order the Crane Drop humidifier and tried it one night. I feel like I woke up more congested and coughing after using it.
Best moment this week: Telling my boss and coworkers that I was pregnant! It was a huge relief to feel like people can know and support me now. I found out one of my coworkers is due exactly 2 weeks before I am!
Miss anything? I miss having a glass of wine (or 2!) at the end of the day. Happy hour was something that Jake and I really enjoyed together to unwind at the end of the day. I also miss sushi (tuna/avocado rolls) and soft cheeses.
Feel any movement? Nope.
Food cravings: No new food cravings this week, although I did eat steak 2 times. Which is more than I had eaten steak in the previous 15 years before pregnancy! I'm not sure what changes when pregnant, but meat sounds and tastes so good!
Anything making you queasy or sick: A bit dizzy but not really nausea at all this week.
Gender: ? Still not sure if we will find out or not. I'm really leaning toward waiting for the surprise at birth.
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Some cramping this week, fatigue, bloated and constipated all the time. Fun, huh?
Belly Button? In
Wedding rings? On
Happy or Moody? Being on my feet working at a conference all week with very little sleep has made me a bit bitchy this week. And on top of that the fire alarm went off at the hotel at 2 am one of the nights and then I couldn't go back to sleep after so that night was basically a waste.
Looking forward to: Selling our house and moving into a new house. And never dealing with a realtor again. Ever.
