6 weeks of belly love



How Far Along:  6 weeks

Size of baby: a sweet pea or 0.25 inches

Gender: Still  unsure, hoping for a healthy baby!  14 more weeks until we find out!

Maternity Clothes:  Bought a pair of maternity work pants and a pair of maternity jeans, also a Bella Band - some of my work pans are a little snug, but probably from bloating and what not,  I just want to be comfy, so I went ahead and bought the few things.  Wore the pants, they are comfy and fit well.  I am just bloated and feeling uncomfy in my normal clothes.

Movement:  No movement, but can't wait to feel it!

Sleep:  Sleeping better than last week.  I do wake up at least once, sometimes two times per night to pee and if I don't get up, that seems to be when I have trouble falling back asleep.  I just can't sleep in much.

Symptoms:   Always hungry, yet nothing seems to tickle my fancy.  I can't pinpoint what I want to eat.  I have been so weepy lately, the littlest things upset me and make me want to cry.  I had a major meltdown and had to call Ryan in Cali on the way home from his moms.  Nothing in particular happened, but then I wanted to go to the movies and my mom wouldn't go with and I broke down.  ha!

What I miss:  Sleeping completely through the night, staying up watching tv with my hubby...

Cravings:  No real cravings yet, just when I want something, I want it.  Other times I think of something and it just makes me want to gag.  I couldn't stand the smell of bbq'd chicken cooking on the neighbor's grill the other day - ugh, the smell of it made me sick!

What I am looking forward to:  Our first doctor's appointment on Tuesday!  And finding out the sex of the baby, although I know that is so far down the road, or at least feels like it :-)






And for good measure, we were playing around with the camera after taking our week bump shot.  See our little faces in the mirror behind each other?!  ha!
