11 Week Bump Update


(idea borrowed from littlebabygarvin.blogspot.com)
Pregnancy Highlights:

Size of baby:
The baby is about the size of a lime.  We downloaded the "What to Expect When you are Expecting" App on my phone.  Shawn & I love seeing the changes in fruit size each week.

Movement: Nothing yet... but I can't wait to feel this baby

Gender: Shawn swears it is a boy and I think it is a girl.  I keep telling him he is going to be disappointed, but honestly I will be VERY happy with either a boy or a girl.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: loss -3 lbs... I'm sick all day/night long.  Nothing settles my stomach.  I am hoping to see relief in 2 weeks when the second trimester hits.

Maternity Clothes: I ordered a couple of pants from Gap that I have been wearing.  The problem is they are not long enough to wear heels with so I have retired my wedges and heels (for now).  I love wearing maternity leggings from Old Navy.  I wear a Belly Band with my jeans since none of the maternity jeans are long enough for these long legs.

Sleep: I'm not tired and barely sleeping at night.  I guess my body is ok with getting up several times to be sick during the night?

What I miss: Ahi Tuni.  I miss seared Ahi... and sushi.

Cravings: Sushi and Udon noodles

Symptoms: The all day sickness is wearing on me.  I dread mealtime even though I am starving.  I try and fight the urge to be sick, but it only makes me feel worse.  Ginger Ale and crackers DO NOT help.

Best Moment this week: Someone at work told me this week that I am glowing and they have never seen a happier pregnant woman.  I am bursting with happiness.
Baby Purchases: Carters had a HUGE sale on their Christmas onesies so I may have ordered a couple (or ten) for the baby.  :)
