Baby Bump #2 Update
Friday, November 9, 2012
1. How Far Along? 11 weeks
2. Due Date? May 31, 2013 :-)
3. Do you know the gender? Not yet. I have my feelings though. We'll see if they're right this time around.
4. Size of the baby? About the size of a LIME or a FIG. (1. 5 inches) (How Big is Baby?)
5. Total weight gain? Down 12 lbs as of my OB appointment this past Monday.
6. Maternity Clothes? Just pants since they're more comfy. I still have to use my belly band to hold em up though.
7. Any stretch marks? Nope.
8. How's the sleep? Pretty good. I've been soooo exhausted lately & crash every time I lay down.
9. Best moment this week? My OB appointment on Monday & my ultrasound on Wednesday! Also, getting my new anti nausea medication. I have yet to get sick since being on it; AMAZING!!!
10. Missing anything? My husband & my energy.
11. Baby Movements? The baby is super active! It was so fun seeing it bounce around on the ultrasound on Wednesday but no, I don't feel any movements yet.
12. Any cravings? No not really. I'm not getting sick anymore thanks to the new medicine but I still don't have much of an appetite. Because I was so sick for so long, any time I eat anything, I want to throw up because I guess thats just what my body was used to doing. So I've just been drinking a lot of protein shakes & munching on very small snacks here & there.
13. What makes you sick or queasy? John's formula, meat, sweet things.
14. What pregnancy symptoms are there? Uterine twitches, bloating, some cramping, fatigue all day, MOOD SWINGS; I cry over everything, forgetfulness, heartburn, acne- its really bad this week!, very stuffy/bloody nose, nausea, vomiting & pregnancy rash (PUPPS). I had PUPPS with John; a very mild case thankfully. It never caused me any pain or burning like a lot of women can get with PUPPS, just itching occasionally. I noticed it coming back the other morning in the shower on my legs & arms; small redish/purpley dots with the skin surround them being a little red.
15. Any labor signs? Nope.
16. Can you still wear your wedding rings? Sure can.
17. Your mood is...? Overall pretty good. I'm starting to really stress about flying back to Germany. Especially with an 8.5 month old in tow.
18. Looking forward to? Being reunited for good with Nathan; just 11 days or so now!! The holidays; Thanksgiving especially! This Christmas will be a good one too because we'll be settled into our home. I can actually put our tree up & decorations & cook my first Christmas meal!
