Ahhh week seven. I am now only 5 weeks away from being out of the first trimester and into the 2nd! 5 weeks till the risk of miscarriage goes down! yay!things are going really well (my boobs are still killing me though) We picked a birthing center this week which is in Sanford..yeah it is a little far away but we love it! I can't wait to see the baby on screen and hear it's heart beat! She is the size of a blueberry this week (which makes me think of violet from charlie and the chocolate factory...which in turn makes me giggle hysterically) And I had the weirdest thought ever! If this baby is a girl...in about 1 month she will have developed all the eggs she will ever have in her lifetime. Which will produce my possible granddaughter. which means at some point very soon three generations of women will be residing in my body...the grandmother the mother and the daughter. I know...its weird!
Right now I am focusing on getting through he next 5 weeks. I can not wait to be out of the danger zone!
How far along? 7 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: none this week
Maternity clothes? not yet...but am sporting the belly band with some things
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: would be a lot better if I wasn't getting up ever 2 hours a night to go pee
Best moment this week:making the appointment at the birthing center
Movement: I thought so...but i was assured it was just gas....so no
Food cravings: The kid adores sweet tea.salty things...like chips
Gender: I'm gonna go with girl this week (although according to the on-line ancient Chinese gender prediction chart I'm having a boy
Labor Signs: None
Belly Button in or out? still in
What I miss: hot baths! I miss taking hot bubble baths...all the baths I take now have to be lukewarm...yuk
