7 weeks 5 days



So I miscalculated my dates by about a week and I am now due on 2/3/14 instead of 1/25/13.  I decided that I have seen a lot of pregnancy blogs through my massive searches of the internet and one thing that I wish I had done when I was pregnant with Hunter was document the entire thing.  This time around, I'm hoping to keep up!  I think it will be a neat way to look back once the baby is born and see just how far we have come.  I'm starting today about week 7, which I'm actually almost out of.  My weeks turn over on Monday, so I'm going to try to make all of my posts on Monday.  Here goes!






Size:  You are the size of a blueberry!  Your brain is growing by about 100 cells per minute and you're starting to get your arms and legs, not just those pesky little flippers!!  You are twice as big as you were last week :)





Weight:  0.8 grams

Total weight gain so far:  None!  I have actually lost 8 lbs!

Sleep:  Sleeping okay, except for having to get up a time or two overnight to pee! 

Symptoms:  Nausea, fatigue, and low tolerance for cold!!!  I'm pretty much nauseated much of the time and tired ALL the time.  I am cold ALL of the time now and have to stay under a blanket most of the time at home.  Daddy thinks I'm crazy!

Cravings:  None really.  I would rather not eat anything!  The other day I did crave some pineapple though!  So much that your uncle had to help me go around town trying to find a can opener so that I could eat it!

Aversions:  Fried foods.  Bleh!  The thought of fried foods make me even more nauseous than I am all the time anyway.

Best moment of the week:  Going to the doctor on Thursday and hearing your heart beat for the first time!!!  You have a strong heart beat of 157 bpm!  Way to go, blueberry! 

Big brother's excitement level:  He is excited some moments, and other moments I think he forgets.  Right now the world is still centered around him :)  I think it will become more real to him once you get bigger and he can feel you kick from inside my tummy.

Movement:  Way too early for that!

Gender:  Way too early for that, too!

Next doctor appointment:  June 26, 2013
