8 Weeks!


How far along: 8 Weeks, 0 Days
Maternity Clothes: Old Navy had a huge Fourth of July sale - 50% off the entire website - so I ordered a bunch of maternity stuff! I am excited for it to get delivered and look through it.
Stretch marks: No new ones
Sleep: I'm waking up a lot in the middle of the night. Naps, though, I am amazing at. I am a great napper.
Best moment of the Week: A said, "See ya later, incubator!" I laughed like crazy, and he told me he has been trying to think of cute phrases like that when I asked him if he'd just come up with it. Apparently "gestator" was also a contender.
Miss Anything? A long, HOT bath. I have had back pain this week, and I just want a long bubble bath to read in.
Movement: Nope. Just gas, ha!
Food Cravings: Still carbs. Mac and cheese is something I could eat every day.
Queasy or Sick? I've had issues in the car during the late afternoons. I've been queasy or carsick on the drive. I think it's because I need to eat after lunch at some point, because as soon as I snack I feel instantly better.
Have you started to show? Blumpity blump blump.
Gender: Nope!
Labor signs: No!
Belly button in, or out? In!
Wedding rings on or off? On!
Happy or moody? Happy, but anxious. As my first appointment QUICKLY APPROACHES, I am excited, but terrified. What if this baby stopped growing weeks ago? What if we can't find a heartbeat? I will just be so much happier when I know things are going alright in there. The good news is that having hit 8 weeks, assuming the baby has BEEN growing appropriately, my risk of miscarriage has dropped to like 2%. Woo!
