This week our little Spawner is apparently kicking up a storm in there, although I won't be able to feel anything for another couple months. His/her fingers and toes are now all completely separated and all of his/her limbs are starting to bend. All of Spawner's organs have formed, and for the rest of the pregnancy they will continue growing. The neatest thing about Spawner IMO is that he/she is starting to taste the amniotic fluid so that means that everything I eat, the baby is tasting. I hope this babe likes carbs!
How far along are
you: 10 weeks! 1/4 of the way through the pregnancy!
Size of baby: a prune even though I have no idea what a prune looks like...but I'm still happy as can be about it! :)
Movement: Not that I can feel, but apparently little Spawner is an active little one in there. I can't wait to feel him/her.
Symptoms: Just peeing frequently and a little more tired than I normally would be considering I go to bed at 8:30 each night.
Total weight gain: still holding steady at 4lbs. Apparently up to 5lbs in the first trimester is considered "normal" so I've still got 1lb wiggle room.
Sleep: Sleep is still really good. I've been getting up every morning at about 3-3:45am and needing to pee. Lately when I do this I can't get back to sleep until like 4-4:30 which sucks since I have to get up at 5:20 for work.
Food adversions: Still not a huge fan of my fave pre-pregnancy food pizza. I've even had Smart Food popcorn sitting here for weeks that I haven't touched (used to be my favourite, too). So, it seems all of the foods I might have "overdone" before I was pregnant, I really don't like anymore. With the huge exception of sushi. I LOVED sushi before pregnancy and I still love it now, although all I eat is the cooked and veggie rolls since raw fish is a no-no. (Can't wait to go back to my spicy salmon sushi in 30 weeks!)
Cravings: Nothing really specific. I've been liking Kraft Dinner, grilled cheese and Swiss Chalet lol.
Emotions: Happy/nervous for ultrasound coming up/excited.
What do you miss: Coffee. Coffee. Coffee. Haven't beaten that addiction yet. Since the nice weather is coming, I just know I'll be needing my iced capp and coffee frap. I might be treating myself once in awhile after the first tri. (2 more weeks, ya!)
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but I am getting discouraged with my extra padding. My pants fit fine, but tops look terrible. I hope I still have awhile to go before I need to switch over.
Wedding rings on or off: Still on.
Boy or girl: I'm thinking boy? A lot of people are thinking boy.
Next appt: April 29 - midwife (hopefully will hear heartbeat), and then May 2 for ultrasound for IPS scan.
Best moment(s) this past week: I've gotta attention-whore my hubby for a second. Saturday we intended to clean our house. When Saturday came, he told me not to lift a finger. He cleaned the house from top to bottom. He vaccuumed, did all the laundry, cleaned the bathrooms and drains and even made dinner...all while I sat on the couch. It was amazing. I am so happy and thankful to have him. And with all this special treatment, I think he's trying to subconsciously make me LOVE pregnancy so I'll want to do it again and again, and honestly so far, it's working. Might have to do this again in 2014. ;) (Let's see if I still feel the same way at 9 months pregnant!)
What are you looking forward to this week: My LONG weekend!
