(This was the hubs first week on belly pic duty. Through no fault of his own, my face left much to be desired. Growing out bangs + no makeup = a frightful Jenna.)

How far along? 9
weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Back to zero.
Maternity clothes? Bought a pair of capris this weekend at Gap Maternity. They’re pretty comfy. Now if it’d just get warm enough to wear them. I am sporting the bella band now. LOVE it.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: Not too bad. I occasionally wake up a lot, but it’s either due to hunger, pee or naughty cats.

Best moment this week: Having TWO days where I felt good (including today!)

Movement: Nope.

Food cravings:
Peanut Butter & Jelly is my new love.
Gender: I’m still wishing girl but thinking boy.

Labor Signs:
Nada.
Belly Button in or out?
Innie.
What I miss: Brewskis.

What I am looking forward to: My next appointment – first full one with the midwife. It was supposed to be Friday, but rescheduled to Monday.

Weekly Wisdom:
Tell your loved ones you love them as much as possible.
Milestones:
Hospital tour and MY FIRST DAYS FEELING OKAY!

6 Weeks.

Hello bloat baby!
(and yes, that would be a cat’s ass walking through the photo. Internets, meet BooBoo.)

How far along? 6 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: +1lb from last week
Maternity clothes? I bought some. A shirt & dress from OldNavy, and some comfy pants from Target.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: I’ve suddenly started to prefer sleeping on my back, vs on my left side which was customary before the BFP. This is just strange to me. Although, I do wake up on my side occasionally.

Best moment this week: Not having a bladder infection. Worst? Having a yeast infection.

Movement: None. Not even in the bowels.

Food cravings:
Chinese food.
Gender: We’ve officially decided on waiting until birth for this one. And I’m thinking boy.

Labor Signs:
Zip.
Belly Button in or out?
Innie.
What I miss: BEER. Holy crap do I miss beer.

What I am looking forward to: Mostly being done with this “treatment.” And also the 1st appt.

Weekly Wisdom:
What feels like a bladder infection could very well not be. And spotting is NORMAL with a yeast infection.
Milestones:
Not doing jack shit but feeling HORRIBLE on Sunday. And first visit to the new clinic.

The reveal to the inlaws.

Uh, holy bloat…Batman.

How far along? 5 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: minus 2 lbs.
Maternity clothes? No. Although after sweating non-stop for the past 3 days, I’m wondering why polyester maternity clothing is even allowed.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: Aside from my kitty being a dickhead, been sleeping well. VERY weird dreams though.

Best moment this week: Sleeping in on the weekend. (I wish every day was a Sunday.)

Movement:
Yes. Plenty of it in my bowels.
Food cravings:
Raisins.
Gender: I haven’t even thought about it. I’m kind of not letting myself think about it.

Labor Signs:
Zip.
Belly Button in or out?
Innie.
What I miss:
Feeling like I’m on solid ground and not on the deck of a yacht in stormy seas. (urp)
What I am looking forward to: That first appointment! (2 more weeks…)

Weekly Wisdom:
Read my post below – get over pooping in public restrooms. Just get over it.
Milestones:
Nearly crapping my pants. Not a good milestone.

Since I’m behind with this, I’ll start here. I’m stealing this little questionnaire from BlairBear, hope you don’t mind, deary. Excuse the half naked pic – we were still in Mexico & just got back from the pool! I promise future ones will not include such skintastic horror.

No.
Sleep: Sleeping well. Who wouldn’t with the ocean in the background?

Best moment this week: Seeing the positive pregnancy tests!

Movement:
Uh, no.
Food cravings:
Bananas.
Gender: I have no clue. I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that I’m knocked up.

Labor Signs:
None.
Belly Button in or out?
Innie.
What I miss:
Drinking. Already.
What I am looking forward to: Getting through the next month or so safe and sound!

None. I’m at a stunned silence.

This is just the beginning!!
