Baby This Week? Baby is about the size of a peach! Or around 3 inches from head to butt. Baby's head is starting to become a bit more proportional to his/her body. And baby is beginning to work on its motor skills. It's wriggling all over the place. I can't feel it yet, though. Also, I'm officially in the second trimester so the risk of miscarriage has gone down significantly! I can also find baby's heartbeat almost immediately with the doppler!
Symptoms? Ugh. Still nauseated but the last 3 days were pretty much 24/7. I couldn't even function. Garrett pretty much took care of Mason by himself (not that he minds AT ALL) but it's still hard not to feel guilty. Today has been ok but that's because I called and got a different nausea med. I'm taking Zofran. It's been helping but it's also giving me headaches. I'd rather have headaches than spend all day trying not to throw up. So the nausea has been ok today thought smells still make me gag. So does sneezing. I'm also very weepy. I cried watching a Disney commercial the other day. Lol
Cravings / Aversions? Everything is gross. I've survived the last week on plain noodles, crackers, and cereal. I've lost 6 pounds since my last OB appointment. Hopefully that number turns around. I'm all for weight loss but not while I'm trying to grow a person.
Goals for the Week? I just want to get my tummy back in track...and my appetite. I know that's not entirely under my control but I can pretend anyway.
Mason? He's all over the place. He can cover pretty big distances. He stays pretty entertained most of the time. But his new thing is wanting to be "up." And by the I meanhe'll crawl over to G or I and kneel, put his arms up and cry until we pick him up. He wants to be where we are. I can't complain. Makes me feel loved!
I'll post a belly pic later. I've got a sleeping baby on me right now! ;)
