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: 8 weeks although at my 8 week ultrasound baby was already measuring 2 days ahead so I'm closer to 9 weeks now.
Total weight gain: 10 pounds of bloat!
Maternity clothes: Some shirts, but I wear them mostly because of the length. I can't button my pants that well so I need the length to hide them.
Stretch marks: Just what was there before.
Sleep: If I didn't need to pee after 6 hours then I'd be sleeping all of the time!
Best moment of this week: Getting to see baby on the ultrasound. There really is a baby in there!
Miss anything: I miss not having terrible stomach pains.
Movement: Nope!
Food cravings: Bagels and cream cheese.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Chicken. This happened the last time. Even my daughter's chicken nuggets make me want to barf.
Have you started to show yet: I look like I've popped even though I know it is mostly just bloat.
Gender: Still thinking boy just because this one isn't trying to kill me like his sister.
Labor signs: Dear lord, no!
Belly button in or out: Still in, but it never popped out the last time.
Wedding rings on or off: Still on, but my fingers are already starting to bloat out.
Happy or moody most of the time: Just tired and tired of having a belly ache.
Looking forward to: Telling our family over Christmas.
* Since we did not spill the beans on this pregnancy to our family until I was 14 weeks pregnant, there will be a fair amount of backtracking until I can get caught up. Hang in there!
