Baby is the size of a raspberry!
Baby is growing about a millimeter each day and moving those arms and leg like crazy, even if you can't feel them, yet. Baby's fingers and toes are now only slightly webbed and the tail is gone. Fun fact: baby's taste buds are now forming.
I have been getting cramps/feeling my uterus stretching these past couple of weeks. It's not very comfortable but it's normal.
Being tired is a given now... as a STAHM, I have the choice to get a nap in everyday so that's really nice.
Also, last week I experienced some bad acid reflux when I was trying to go to sleep. Apparently eating chips and salsa for lunch can effect your sleep 9 hrs after consumption...
Maternity clothes? Not yet!
Sleep? I'm starting to have a hard time getting back to sleep when I wake up to go to the bathroom or just after a dream. I guess pregnancy insomnia is starting (nooooooo!)
Best moment last week? A great friend's daughter had a birthday party last week. Paul has never met this friend or her family (her husband and two beautiful girls) so he was a bit hesitant to go to the party with me and Agnes. But he did, and he had a great time and so my friend and I will be planning some dinner dates with the family when Agnes and I get back form our trip to Colorado! Having new friends always tops the list!
Movement? Nope, not yet!
Weight Gain: Ummm... I lost a pound the last time I weighed myself.
Cravings: Now that I'm in Colorado, I have to stop at my favorite Chicago Hotdog place with their yummy spicy fries. Acid reflux you ask? WORTH IT!!
What made me cry this week: What is it with me and commercials!! I saw this commercial last night where an older man spots a young military guy a couple of seats away while they both wait for their plane. The older guy gets up and goes to the service desk and talks to the flight attendant. It turns out that the older guy gave up his nice seat in first class and switched with the military man who was in coach... and the military guy didn't even know who it was. I have tears in my eyes just recounting this COMMERCIAL!!! Oh Hormones... although I probably would've been emotional even if I weren't pregnant.
Oh and Agnes has been watching Frozen a lot these past couple of days so whenever the songs "Do You Wanna Build a Snowman?" and "Let it Go" come on, it takes everything in my being not to burst out in tears...
Medical Stuff: Nothing new here.
Something I am excited about: I'm excited for the rest of the gang (family) to arrive here in Colorado!!
