How far along? - 8 weeks
Total weight gain: - I actually lost a significant amount of weight (like 3-4 pounds) since I wasn't eating anything - I remember being really sick the 8th week.
Maternity clothes? - not at that point
Stretch marks? - nope
Sleep: I was able to sleep soundly at this point though I would wake up to pee at like 5 am
Best moment this week: It was actually a scary moment that turned into a good moment. I had been feeling really crampy so I scheduled an appointment with the OB's office. They fit me in. The midwife tried to do an ultrasound but couldn't find the baby and I panicked. Then, she told me that it was an older machine and she was going to schedule me for the ultrasound tech appointment. I was incredibly nervous but when I got in there, they squirted gel on my belly and moved the little wand around and I got to see a really strong heartbeat again. It was like 170 and the ultrasound tech said I was measuring slightly ahead of my original dating ultrasound - but they didn't change my due date. (Maybe I just have a big baby in there - Likely!)
Food cravings: Hamburgers and salty foods
Anything making you queasy or sick: I was so sick this week. I remember just wanting to sleep all day and wondering if I would ever feel normal again.
Gender: no idea
Symptoms: all day nausea, dry heaving, fatigue, frequent peeing, and sore ta-tas
Belly button in or out: in
Wedding rings on or off: on
Looking forward to: seeing family in Maine for our annual summer vacation
