Disclaimer: This is my second pregnancy. With my first pregnancy my daughter was born preterm, breech and via C-section. Due to my age, my medical history (hello, incompetent cervix!) and my daughter being delivered preterm I am being classified as high-risk. Things could get a little crazy in here so proceed with caution.
How far along: 6 weeks
Total weight gain: I've probably put on a good 10 pounds of bloat and indigestion
Maternity clothes: I don't need to wear it yet, but I invested in 2 long sleeve maternity shirts mostly for my bump photo shoots but also to add to my existing collection since my last pregnancy was mostly a summer one.
Stretch marks: Just the ones I already have!
Sleep: Eh, I could sleep 24/7 if I could, but I don't get great sleep. It doesn't help that I had to stop taking Valerian root early on since it is a herbal medicine and doctors are unsure of how that would affect the fetus.
Best moment of this week: Sleeping and the few times that I can manage to get a workout in. The horomones are just wreaking havoc with my body when I try to extert any amount of energy.
Miss anything: Beer and wine, of course!
Movement: Just gas bubbles. :)
Food cravings: Sugar, but I've mostly been able to overcome it unlike my last pregnancy.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not eating every 2-3 hours or, just the opposite, sometimes when I think about food I want to barf.
Have you started to show yet: Just bloat.
Gender: Nothing confirmed yet since it is so early but I am thinking boy simply because this pregnancy is already so different than the last one. Scarlett really wanted to kill me from 5 weeks on.
Labor signs: No, thank God!
Belly button in or out: Still in.
Wedding rings on or off: Still on.
Happy or moody most of the time: I'm a big ball of emotions right now.
Looking forward to: Seeing baby at our 8 week appointment on November 16.
