baby update – 8 weeks

by | Jul 26, 2010 | babies, family, prego updates | 4 comments


they tell me that my baby is currently the size of a raspberry.
currently the baby is working on brain power and limbs.
keep growin kiddo.

the past 2 months have been so much fun as we have told our families
and settled into the reality of all of the changes around here.

i am almost worried that i am not sick at all.

i mean, i get a bit sick here and there, but i have not vomited or anything.
not that i am incredibly comfortable in this alien body.

things are…larger shall we say,
which makes sleeping/running all the more fun.

other than that, i am just wasted all the time.
no, not college drunk,
just so out-of-touch with reality at times that i feel like i forget things i shouldn’t
and need a nap, pretty much all the time.

i haven’t been too food specific,
just either ravenous every 2 hours or not at all for 4.
thus why i have gained 5 pounds already,
and that is about how much i’m
supposed to gain in the first 3 months.
woops.

here’s me, not beat up about it.

    I am so happy for you guys! Just so you know, I wasn't sick AT ALL with my pregnancy and that is a good thing! A lot of people were worried that there was something wrong because I wasn't sick… but my doctor said that everything was right and my body was completely in balance so I hope that you stay feeling well your whole pregnancy! Just wait till you can feel your little bean kick

    i love your pics, those are SO cute! we should totally catch up- via phone and chat about everything. oh and your house looks so cute! one more thing- i went to the dr. yesterday and she said my starting weight for the pregnancy would be my 11 week weight even though i had gained 5 pounds. she said it was normal. so that made me feel a tad bit better 🙂
