How far along? 8 weeks, 4 Days (EDD is June 22, 2017)

Total weight gain/loss: Last I knew it was about 2 pounds. Hopefully that number hasn't gone up.

Maternity clothes? Not yet! Wearing lots of leggings, workout clothes and anything comfy.

Stretch marks? Nope! Honestly, I've been too tired and haven't been keeping up on my Mama Bee Stretch Mark Cream. I need to get on it.

Sleep: I've still been sleeping great and getting lots of it. Lots of napping and then going to bed early. Same as usual.

Symptoms: Still suffering through terrible breakouts. Guys I've never had this kind of cystic acne before. My poor chin. :( My lower back pain still isn't as frequent but when it does come, it hurts so bad! Still feeing "car sick" practically all day. So that has been fantastic.

Best moment this week: Telling all of our family the awesome news! It has been great being able to talk to people about it. And both of our families are SO excited. We can't wait to announce it publicly. :')

Have you told family and friends: Just about all the family know finally!

Miss Anything? Cold sandwiches and sushi. So unlike me on the cold sandwich part. I'm more of a heated sandwich type of girl but I have been craving cold turkey or ham sandwiches and I'm really upset that I can't have cold lunch meat!!

Movement: I sure wish! I can't wait for the day.

Food cravings: Cold turkey/ham sandwiches & sushi. I kind of curbed my sushi craving the other day with a california roll. I sure miss salmon rolls though! Also, I really miss having some energy

Anything making you queasy or sick: Still feel really queasy anytime I get hungry. Today was a crappy day because I just could not eat anything but soup and I was still feeling nauseous.

Have you started to show yet: I feel like it but I know most of it is bloat.

Gender prediction: Guys, if this baby isn't a girl I will be so surprised considering all the beauty she is taking from me! Haha! seriously baby, quit making me break out so badly!

Ultrasound Update: At 7 weeks, baby had a healthy heartbeat of 128 BPM, and is measuring only one day behind! My next ultrasound is December 1st when I'm exactly 11 weeks.

Labor Signs: No

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Tired but still very HAPPY! Shae can probably beg to differ. I have caught myself being incredibly moody but he handles it quite well. Haha!

Looking forward to: Getting out of this 1st trimester so we can shout the news from the rooftops and so I can start hopefully feeling better. But FIRST, getting our 11 week ultrasound.

Alright, I slacked last week on my 6-week update and slacking again this week without providing a bump picture. BUT, I have been feeling so exhausted, drained, sick and miserable. I've been working and on the go non-stop between clinicals, Target, being a wife and getting in my nap time. It's been a struggle and I've been living off of pizza rolls and sprite as of Friday soooo. Bare with me. Here is a picture of our little punkin at 7 weeks! SO CUTE I DIE!



How far along? 7 weeks, 2 Days (EDD is June 22, 2017)

Total weight gain/loss: I have gained like 2 pounds already. Yuck.

Maternity clothes? No but I don't like anything constricting or tight right now. I've been wearing Shae's clothes any chance I get!

Stretch marks? Nope!

Sleep: I've been sleeping great and getting lots of it. Lots of napping still and then going to bed early.

Symptoms: Still suffering through terrible breakouts on my chin and forehead. SO over it. My lower back pain isn't as frequent but it comes and goes. Also, if I let myself get hungry and I am soooo nauseous and feel so icky. Not fun at all.

Best moment this week: On Thursday we had our first doctor appointment which ended up being a huge disappointment because all we did was go over paperwork. No doctor. No ultrasounds. SO, I went and paid for an elective ultrasound and got to see my little punkin and hear and see their little heartbeat. I will never forget that sound or that site.

Have you told family and friends: My mom and some friends. We are telling most of our family next week at 8 weeks and then the beginning of Decemeber we will announce it publicly!

Miss Anything? Having energy and feeling good.

Movement: Nope!

Food cravings: Anything sour, spicy food, pickles, salty food. And then a couple nights ago I had a weird craving for fudge pops and apple juice.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Any time I get hungry I feel so queasy. Even after just 2 hours I already start to feel sick again. Its terrible!

Have you started to show yet: No. Still just still really bloated!

Gender prediction: I really had a strong feeling it was a girl for the first few weeks but now I don't know!

Ultrasound Update: Baby had a healthy heartbeat of 128 BPM, and is measuring only one day behind! 

Labor Signs: No

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Tired but HAPPY!

Looking forward to: Telling all of our family next week! :)
