How far along? 8 weeks!
Baby is the size of a...jelly bean, raspberry, kidney bean
Total weight gain/loss? 1 lbs
Symptoms? Still nothing really....though in the last week I have been getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and though I'll eat at dinner there isn't much that sounds good so that makes it a little bit of a challenge to find something to eat.
What is making me queasy or sick? Nothing
Food cravings? None...really enjoying fruit though.
Missing anything? Not really....wine and diet coke kinda but not as much as I thought I would
Sleeping? Same as always....except for the getting up in the middle of the night
Started to show? Nope
Emotions? Nothing different
Best moment this week? Another week done without any issues
Fears & excitements? Still the fear of getting too excited and then having a miscarriage.
To do List? And keep up with this blog!
This week has been fairly uneventful. Had a doctor appointment last Tuesday where they took my prenatal blood sample. Have not gotten the results back, hopefully tomorrow. The biggest thing that they are going to watch is my iron level since I don't eat red meat. If it gets too low and/or I am overly exhausted then I will just have to switch my prenatal vitamins to include an iron supplement. My Dr said that otherwise she doesn't have any major concerns about me being pregnant and not eating meat. So that is good. Not much else to report, just a waiting game right now until 12 weeks when we can start telling people. Then it will get really exciting and real.
