Put The Lime in the Coconut.

How far along: 11 weeks

Baby is the size of a: Lime.  Although I've also read a brussle sprout, which seems reasonable.  The limes at my grocery store are pretty big! Baby is about 1.6 inches long and weighs about 0.25 ounces.

Maternity clothes: Not yet.  But still rocking the stretchy pants/skirts.  I've gained about 5 pounds since we found out we were pregnant.  No more ice cream trips for this gal.

Stretch marks: Only those I started with!

Sleep: Still sleeping really well until the middle of the night.  Then, after a bathroom break, I tend to toss and turn the rest of the night.  My back has also been sore lately when I wake up. 

Symptoms: Still tire out easily.  I hit a wall sometimes and have to take a break.  Also, digestive woes are a constant struggle.  This could be attributed to my terrible eating habits as of late.

Best moment of the week:  Finally making it to 11 weeks.  Very anxious to tell the rest of our families (which we'll be doing in two weeks on our family vacation in Canada!).

Miss anything:  Not feeling like a starving lunatic if I don't eat every 2-3 hours.

Movement: Not for a few more weeks.

Cravings/aversions: Still big on dairy.  Also all things carbs.  I have to force myself to get my fruit/vegetable quota in for the day.  Who knew yummy fruit could be so icky?

Belly button in or out? In.  Where it better stay.

Sex: No feelings either way.  I keep waiting for that "feeling" people talk about.

Mood:  Happy.  But starting to feel a bit anxious these last couple days.  Our last loss happened at 11w4d.  I really just want to get through this week.  I know things could still happen, but it would make me feel better knowing we've passed that milestone.

  5. I have heard Manitoulin Island is beautiful, although I can't say I've made it there yet, but my ILs have! Hope you have a great trip there, so exciting! I hope this week goes by quickly for you and you have a healthy and uneventful (in a good way!) rest of your pregnancy!
