Size of Baby: 2.5 ounces and 4 inches long, the size of an apple.
How I'm Feeling: Feeling a lot better. I haven't gotten sick any this week, just a tiny bit of nausea here and there. Other than my daily headaches, I'm pretty much feeling like my old self again which is nice.
Cravings/Appetite: My appetite seems to be fully back (hello tea and Mexican food, I've missed you) although I'm starting to eat smaller portions than I usually do especially at dinner. I did this with Campbell also. My stomach is in the beginning stages of becoming squished and I can tell I'm going to suffer from reflux again because of it. I'm dreading it.
Clothes: Still in all of my regular clothes and jeans although I do wear maternity pants some days just because.
Movement: I felt my first real big movements on Wednesday night when I was laying in bed. Three little pops. They weren't big kicks or anything like that but definitely stronger than little flutters.
Changes in Me: My back is killing me. I put my Christmas decorations up this week and by the time I was finished I was in so much pain. I never realized how much I bend over throughout the day to pick up Campbell's messes, put Campbell in his car seat, give him his bath, etc. and I think all of this bending over is the reason for my back pain. I'm starting to make a conscience effort to not bend over as much and it seems to be helping me.
Baby Purchases: Not knowing the gender of this baby with all of the Black Friday sales going on last weekend was torture for me! I was really regretting not opting to do that blood test at 10 weeks that tells you the gender. I had to get some Kickee Pants though (they had such a great sale!!) so I decided to get some newborn footies in midnight and I got Campbell the pajamas to match. My first baby purchase for baby number 2!
Favorite Moment This Week: I had an appointment yesterday to check in on baby. Everything seems to be going well with the little one.
Looking Forward To: We booked our anatomy scan yesterday. That was one of my favorite appointments with Campbell and I'm looking forward to it this time around also.
So exciting! Glad you are feeling better.
