8 Weeks

How Far Along: 8 weeks

Size of baby: the size of a raspberry

Weight Gain: I actually did weigh this week. And I will say it was only 2 pounds. This may be the only time I say this :)

Maternity Clothes: Not yet. But I have started saving my birthday money for them. Will probably have to start looking in January.

Gender: I say boy but who knows. Can't wait to find out!

Movement: Not yet. Still too early

What I miss: Still just wish my pallet would come back. Im so hungry but do not want food. I am very tired of special K bars, gold fish crackers, peanut butter sandwiches and saltines.

Sleep: No problems this week. In fact, I just took a 3 hour nap while the city was repaving the road right outside my window.

Symptoms: Very tired the last two days. I Wednesday I actually felt almost normal all day then by 8:30 I was in the bed. The nausea has been worse this week too. Counting down the days until second trimester.

Cravings: These were all random this week- coconut cream pie, fresh peach, dill pick chips (this has been for two weeks now), SUSHI!!! I want Japanese so badly. I told Stephen today I need something with soy sauce on it sometime soon.

We have made it to 8 week! This was a little goal I had for myself. Yea!!
