7 weeks

April 17, 2012
how far along: 7 weeks
baby’s size: about the size of a blueberry
weight gain: 1 lb. since last week, 3 lbs. total
maternity clothes: No
stretch marks: No
sleep: Mostly uninterrupted sleep
best moment this week: I've been playing videos of babies crying for the boys, to hopefully make the adjustment easier for them when Baby Lane arrives. We were watching a video, and I was "talking to the baby", "trying to soothe the baby", talking to the boys about the baby. Then, I asked Charlie, who was right beside me, to give me a kiss if he loved the baby. He literally turned his head away from me and moved to the foot of the bed...looks like someone is already jealous!
food cravings: tater tots and Community Mart pizza
symptoms: still hungry and eating constantly, fatigue off-and-on, tender breasts, no full-blown sickness but occasional nausea, irritability
gender: Too early.
belly button in or out: In
movement: Too early.
what I miss: Not being hungry all the time
what I'm looking forward to: I'm still very excited about our first prenatal appointment, which is only 3 days away! After that, I'm looking forward to making the pregnancy Facebook official, and actually posting these blog entries.

Baby Lane is about the size of a blueberry this week
