7 weeks

How far along: 7 weeks

How big is Baby: The size of a blueberry

Maternity Clothes: This week I broke down and bought 2 Belly Bands- one white and one black.  While I was at the store I also saw some maternity underwear that said they were good for before, during or after pregnancy.  I've been much more comfortable the past few days!
Sleep:Some days I pass out by 7:30 on the couch, other times I feel more awake.  I find myself getting up a few times and having a few weird dreams in between times getting up which leaves me feeling exhausted in the morning.

Movement: Not for awhile.


Food cravings: Cheese, salad with balsamic vinegrette, I've noticed that my appetite isn't as big as it was last week. Once I eat I feel full longer and I can't seem to find foods to satisfy my taste buds.

Food aversions: sweets, spaghetti, garlic

Gender: Won't know for awhile

Symptoms: I feel like the symptoms are coming and going and it's weird because I'd like to be constant, just because that would give me reassurance day after day.  I have heartburn but that comes and goes, fatigue and bloat seem to be the biggest ones. At night I feel cramping and stretching in my uterus

What do I miss: Nothing at all.

Best moment this week: Buying maternity items... it just made me happy

What I am looking forward to: tomorrow- where we'll share with some family members and Monday where we'll have our first u/s

Milestones: Baby is developing mouth and tongue and arm and leg buds sprout!
