How far along: 8 weeks!
How big is baby: The size of a gummi bear! Awwwww...
Weight gain/loss: 0ish. I say ish because it goes up and down every day.
Stretch marks: Not unless you count the ones still there from the last 2 babies…
Maternity clothes: Pulling out the pants this week. Most of it is bloat, but why be uncomfortable when I already have the clothes?
Sleep: Not so great. Last night I got up 4 times to pee. That is with me restricting my water intake before bed. Ridiculous. I am, however, incredibly sleepy...all the time.
Food cravings or aversions: Still don't want to eat/smell/talk about chili. I have been craving a lot of pizza, but I tend to crave pizza all the time - pregnant or not.
Gender: Not sure yet, but everyone is calling boy. They have a 50/50 shot of being right!
Movement: Not yet!
Belly button: Positively innie.
Exercise/Diet: Pretty much 0 exercise right now! My diet is whatever doesn't make me nauseated.
What I'm loving: Caroline sitting in my lap and saying, "Twoooooo babies!"
What I miss: Feeling like I had even a touch of energy.
What's different this time: Well I have a horrible cold this week. I haven't felt like doing much of anything. First trimester yuckiness + a cold = miserable! Also, maybe it's the insane amount of water I drink nowadays (compared to the last 2 pregnancies) but getting up to pee 4 times in one night is just unacceptable! I kept waking up with a painfully full bladder. Another thing that has been different - I've had some CRAZY nightmares. This whole week I've had terrible dreams involving being chased, having a bomb strapped to me, being raped, being stabbed, having my friends blown up, etc. Last night I actually PRAYED that God would intervene and please let me have a night without nightmares. Thankfully, He took pity on me and I had regular ole dreams. I am thankful!
Still can't believe that we'll be welcoming a 3rd baby in August! It seems unreal...until I remember peeing 4 times in one night. :)
