7 Weeks

I am going to try to document this pregnancy weekly (try).  This is my baby book, scrapbook and the easiest way to share info with my family before I forget (I may have pregnancy brain already...as if I ever got my normal brain back after Z was born).  To make it easy I am stealing this idea from my friend Sarah.

How Far Along: 7 Weeks

Maternity Clothes: No...but I have thought about it...I mean honestly maternity jeans feel like yoga pants but are jeans so you look like you got dressed in the morning. 

Best Moment this Week: My first appointment!  I got to hear the heartbeat and see his or her little picture.  Zack came with (it may be the last time) and pointed at the screen and said "dog, pfffff (woof), dog, dog, pffff, pffff).  He might be disappointed that he is getting a little brother or sister and not a dog.

Weight Gain/Loss: -3 lb

(Sarah didn't do this but I had such issues with Zack and I may have already lost weight so I want to keep track)  According to the scale at the doctor (and I usually measure heavy) I was 5 lb's less than my stable weight...the weight I have been for years...I thought I had gained weight because I am eating so much so often (um...a whole tube of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls for a between breakfast and lunch snack!)  I am going average my number and the doctors number and say I lost 3 lb.

Gender: No idea...I hope for a boy so Zack has a built in best friend (that isn't a dog) and I hope for a girl so I'm not outnumbered any more...my wallet hopes for a boy...lets face it girl stuff is soooo much cuter and very hard to resist.

Movement: Can't wait!!!!

 Food Craving: no craving

 What I miss: not being tired or nauseated...I know I am only seven weeks but I threw up 4 weeks ago and it's been downhill from there.  Thankfully I am not really sick though.

Sleep: 1st Trimester evening sleep is AMAZING...I try to take one 30 min nap while Zack naps.  Sometimes I just lay on the couch and watch talk shows.

 What I am looking forward to: Telling people...it was so easy when I would talk to people occasionally over SKYPE.  I may not be able to hold it in any longer.  I feel like some people know, and I feel like a big fat liar. 

Symptoms: Nausea

Tummy Shot: Sorry
