baby ole - week 7

this week started off with a drive up to the cities on friday (after a quick, left work early, nap) and the warrior dash on saturday with manda, jaci, rob and brooke. i told them i was pregnant after we finished since i couldn't get the free beer. i had wanted manda to be the friend i told first. i was so happy to discuss pregnancy/baby things with manda and hope she's ready for how much more i'll be directing at her :)



 

How far along: 7 weeks

How big is baby: size of a blueberry

Weight gain/loss: none

Stretch marks: none, but i need to do some research/ask some questions on how to avoid these.

Sleep: sleeping normally (very well)

Diet/Cravings/Aversions: nothing really yet. some aversions to meet

Movement: none

What I'm loving: finishing the warrior dash (even tho i was rendered useless for the rest of the night with a sore body), 3 day work week, 4 day weekend (i actually get to see al and tator 4 days in row!)

Symptoms: more frequent waves of nausea (especially at work in the mornings; strange: i had no waves of nausea the morning of the warrior dash?),  tired, breast/nipple soreness

What I'm looking forward to: made my first dr's appt. it won't be until 10 weeks as the clinic i have to go to for our insurance doesn't see you until 10-12 weeks, but next week we have a prenatal seminar-thing at the clinic and al can attend too! i'm excited to get some more info! i have decided to go with midwives (there are 5-6 at our clinic and they recommend you see them all as you never know who'll be on call).

 

telling my friends and telling malia as i can't wait to figure out exactly how i need to alter lifting so that i can get back into it (i miss the soreness and strength/feeling of lifting) and to see when she can start doing prenatal massages :)

Best moment of the week: 4 day weekend! 

How I'm feeling: nervous for all the changes coming: baby, school, possibly buying a house
