8 weeks!


Baby's now the size of a raspberry!
Baby is growing like mad, putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Though you can't feel it yet, baby is moving those little arms, legs, and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy.

How Far Along: 8 weeks and 4 days
Total weight gain: I got on the scale today at the OB's office, but I don't know how much I've gained. I guess we'll start keeping track.....now!
Maternity clothes: None yet, although my pants kind of popped open after dinner tonight. Yikes!
Sleep: Still really tired in late afternoon and early evening, but not able to sleep past 8:30. Boo.
Best Moment this week: Seeing our baby doing a little jig and moving up a storm on the ultrasound today! It has gotten so big in just a week! You can see the beginnings of the arms and legs. So cute!
Movement: It's going on, but I don't feel it yet. I can't wait until I do!
Gender: Still no clue...only 12 more weeks to go until we find out!
Labor signs: None and I hope not to see any for a long time!
Belly button: Innie
Cravings: Still craving the OJ and sush...nothing too crazy yet.
Nausea:Vomiting and/or dry heaving in the shower and while brushing my teeth. Yuck. Some days the nausea lasts all day.
What I miss: I love everything about this! Even the nausea and vomiting....the act of it isn't pleasant, but what it means is fabulous.
Stretch Marks: No new ones
Weekly wisdom: It's still so much fun seeing people for the first time after they've found out our good news.
What I am looking forward to this week: Enjoying my 3 days off work
