We have one week and one day before our first ultrasound, and I am equal parts thrilled and scared out of my mind, but I imagine that is par for the course.
From thebump.com: How big is our little potato?
Here is the survey that I had started with our angel (I'm praying that I get to do 30+ weeks of these):
How far along? 6w0days (start of seventh week)
Total weight gain/loss: down several pounds
Maternity clothes? yup, pants and some shirts. Most of my pants are just too uncomfortable, and I am loving my new JCP plus maternity jeans. They don't have the fully belly panel, which I'm not ready for, but stretchy band all around the top with a button close.
Stretch Marks?: Unfortunately yes, but not because of baby, but because I've been far too fluffy for far too long. :(
Sleep: Yup. I'm up 3-4 times a night to pee, but I end up falling asleep on the couch before bedtime anyways. :)
Best moment this week: I'm looking forward to this coming Sunday as that will be one day longer than we had our angel last year.
Food Cravings: Mashed potatoes, and meatloaf (that didn't turn out so well)
Gender: no idea. But I do keep referring to the baby as "them." I don't know if that is wishful thinking, or if my subconscious knows something I don't yet. ;)
Signs/Symptoms: Nausea, constipation, bloating, dizziness, cramping, fatigue
Labor Signs: God, no. :D
Belly Button in or out? Very much in. :D
What I miss: Being naive about early pregnancy, and not scared witless that this baby will leave us too.
What I am looking forward to: the next eight months or so. :D
Weekly Wisdom: Stay hydrated! I get some awful dizzy spells when I don't drink enough.
Milestones: Out of the first month already!
