week 8

So, i found this list of weekly questions. i thought it would be a good place to start for this blog. Eventually i will include belly pics with these, but since i only feel bloated and pregnant, and don't look it, i'll just let you imagine and enjoy the questions!!!

Beware, i'm honest and not shy.


How far along? 8 weeks. exactly.
Total weight gain/loss: i'm about the same as always due to being deathly sick all weekend (not due to baby) and only eating english muffins and water. i think i have gained about 6lbs, but i lost all of that in 3 days of misery. 
Maternity clothes?nope
Stretch marks? nope, i'm looking into ideas to avoid. i've heard Mustela cream  is worth the price...
Sleep: i'm tired all the time and sleep as much as possible.
Best moment this week: having the kids i teach tell me i don't look like i have a baby inside because i'm not fat. i asked them if they ate a raspberry would they be fat? they said no. i told them my baby is only that big. they didn't believe me.
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? S3X. can i say that? well it's true; this week has been terrible! not only have i been sick as a dog, but my man has been working 14+ hour days and we are too pooped to woop by the time he gets home. So i guess i miss my man too.
Movement: i think my uterus is actually the size of a graepfruit, which is normal, and it kinda feels like it's ascending... my belly button hurts, so to me that's a sign that there's movement.
Food cravings: anything MEXICAN!!!!!!!! bring on my favorite anytime food! yes!
Anything making you queasy or sick: yogurt or almost anything dairy.
Have you started to show yet: not really. bloating doesn't count.
Gender prediction: Boy.
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY!
Looking forward to: Hearing the heartbeat!!! Next week is appt #1!!! woo-hoo
