10 weeks

Only 2 more weeks till the NT scan and only 4 more weeks till we spill the beans to our parents! The weather has been beautiful in Chicago the past few days, like 80-90 degrees! So the dog and I have been getting in a lot of walks. It's hard to sit on the couch when it's so nice out, so I've been pushing on even when I'm feeling crappy to get outside. 

How far along? 10 weeks

How big is the peanut? The size of a prune or small strawberry

Total weight gain/loss? I'm sure something. I was 150 at the OB on Monday but I had a full bladder and haven't um, pooped, in days. So I'm pretty sure I'm under 150. I need to get  scale. I'm going to keep saying that every week till this kid is born. Maybe ignores is bliss!

Maternity clothes? Nope, but I ordered 3 yoga/lounge pants from Kohl's the other day, one size up, and they are loose and have room to grow in. Since I work from home, I wonder if I'll be able to get through most of this pregnancy with just going up a size or two. I'm sure I'll need maternity jeans and khakis since going a size up in those don't seem to fit my grown hips & butt.

Sleep? Ahh, crappy. I'm good from the time I go till bed till the first time I need to pee, which is anywhere from 2-5am, but then I lay there till my alarm goes off till 6:30. I'd love to not be able to get up but it makes it almost impossible to keep sleeping when your bladder is so full. I try to stop drinking any fluids after 9pm, but that's not working.

Best moment this week? Hearing the heartbeat at the OB on Monday, such a beautiful sound!

Symptoms? Still have the nausea, heartburn, blah feeling. Still haven't thrown up. Getting some headaches. Still need to eat something every 2 hours, and I'm still getting exhausted by 8pm.

Food cravings? This week it's been falafel and of course I haven't gone to get a falafel sandwich yet. Maybe tomorrow for dinner. 

Food aversions? Yogurt, which really sucks cause it has so much protein in it. The greek yogurt w/fruit in it has been giving me the nastiest heartburn this week. 

Gender? Not finding out

Labor signs? Heck no

Belly button in or out? In, but my belly button is getting wider as the tummy grows. 

Wedding rings on or off? On and still good

What I miss? Caffeine. Coffee isn't agreeing with me and I was never a big soda drinker but I did have 1/2 of a Diet Coke today cause I was so tired and I had to run through McDonald's drive through to get a cheeseburger before I passed out. 

What I'm looking forward to? The NT scan on June 4th!

Milestones? Getting to 10 weeks is milestone enough!

Bump? More blump than bloat. My stomach just looks fuller but it is getting harder. J keeps putting his hands on it when we are laying in bed, love it!
