Here's a 'full body shot' from our Scan last week...
Maternity Clothes: I was blessed to have been given some by some friends/family and I am making full use of them. I've reached the point that even though I can button up most of my pants and stand in them , sitting cuts off the blood circulation to my lower extremities :) Plus they comfy! I'm Wearing a lot of dresses as well as I only have a couple of pants that are still 'work approporaite' but I'm sure I'll figure out the further we get along
Belly: there's not much to show there although there are very definite beginnings of a bump. At the moment its still in that weird bloat/bump between stage ...
Best Moment of the Week: Not getting sick!!! I've made it through the whole week without getting sick once (touch wood).
Movement: Baby was very busy during last weeks scan so I know s/he's bouncing around in there but i haven't felt anything yet
Symptoms: Umm I seem to have had all the classic symptoms. Nausea/throwing up, round ligament pain as things stretch , growing bigger... I'll take them as long as we get a healthy little one out of the deal :)
Food Cravings: CHEESE!!! oh my word I feel like a mouse! I just can't get enough

Gender: Not sure yet
What I Miss:Sushi... aah man I want some sushi
What I'm Looking Forward to: hearing a heartbeat again. I'm slightly paranoid and it reassures me for about a week after we go to the Doctor that all is still well. I'm sure once Baby starts moving that will help to but until then heartbeats are awesome:)
Milestones: Officially in the second Trimester :)
Emotions: all over the place ! I can't watch half the shows I like on TV cos I end up bawling !

You can eat sushi, hon!! Dig in! I was worried too, but doc said it's all bull :)
ReplyDeleteha ha thanks Tam , I keep telling the hubby that but he's being the Sushi police ;) I must say I'm avoiding it too cos the places we can get it here are not always the most hygenic and with this heat stuff goes bad so quickly so its better to be safe than sorry ... sigh :)
