7 Weeks 1 Day... Baby is a blueberry!

How far along? 7 weeks 1 day (I will have to move these up to Saturday's since baby measured a day ahead)

Feeling: Nausea has it...it is becoming pretty constant but some points in the day it lets up. Not enough to make me vomit but enough to make me very uncomfortable. My boobs are insane, and hurt so bad at night. Still insanely tired. I have managed to stay up to midnight though once this weekend!

Maternity clothes? Just my shirt I take weekly bump pics in.

Sleep: Can't get enough!

Food cravings: None yet, but I tried Oikos (spell?) yogurt today, and baby loved it! No nausea at all with it :) I am going to have to pick some more up.

Movement? Nope nothing, way too early.

What I miss? Nothing! I would not trade this for anything.

Best moment this week: Seeing our little bean on Tuesday and hearing its little heart beat :)

What I'm looking forward to: Anatomy scan! Someone in my birth month board found a study that says early ultrasounds where the placenta is on the left of the uterus are 97% likely to be girls, and the right side are boys. We would be having a girl then! I want a little girl so bad.

Next Appointment: February 5th , I will be 8 weeks 3 days

Milestones: Baby's heart started beating.

6 weeks 3 days: There is for sure a baby in there!

We had our ultrasound this morning. Baby is measuring a day ahead! That puts our EDD at September 14th now. Hubby said it looked like a kidney bean lol. She told us not to worry if we didn't find a heart beat that it is still early. Not only did we find one, we heard it! She was shocked at the strength of it this soon. It was a nice strong 125 BPM. We half expected to find two babies because we had two nice size follicles but apparently only 1 took. We are OK with that :)

This little bean is such a miracle to us. Hearing the heart beat was such a beautiful thing! I cannot believe there is a baby in there!

6 Weeks, Our baby is the size of a sweet pea.

How far along? 6 weeks

Feeling: Still feeling pretty decent. Extremely tired, I am in bed at 9:30 on some nights! My boobs are really starting to hurt bad at night, I told my husband "I dare you to touch them, you will lose a hand". Ouch. I get a little random bout of  nausea here and there if I don't eat soon enough. Oh and lets talk about poops. Constipation one day? Check...Dia the next? Check... oh the glorious moments of pregnancy.

Maternity clothes? Still none.

Sleep: Can't get enough!

Food cravings: This week I want pasta soooo bad. I got in my head that I wanted alfredo and I cannot get it out of my mind! Guess what we are having for dinner tomorrow night? ;) Hubby just doesn't know it yet.

Movement? Nope nothing, way too early.

What I miss? Nothing! I would not trade this for anything.

Best moment this week: Seeing my mom get so excited about it, at first she was subdued but now seeing her actually get excited makes me happy.

What I'm looking forward to: Tuesday!!! We get to see our little sweet pea (maybe sweet peas?) We diiiiidddd have two nice follicles.

Next Appointment: January 22nd.

Milestones: Baby went from an appleseed to a sweet pea!

5 weeks 5 days

I am right on the edge of being 6 weeks. I am so anxious, and worried that there really isn't a little life growing in there. Some days I will wake up and obviously feel symptoms and then there are days like to day where I don't feel pregnant at all. Confession? It terrifies me.

It terrifies me enough that on lunch break I am driving to Wal-Mart and buying another FRER. It is the only thing that gives me peace of mind right now. Obviously if everything is OK I will regret hoping for morning sickness later. But right now? I would die to have it, so at least I know everything is going OK. I am probably being irrational because I know it is still very early...but I cannot help but be nervous. It took us SO long to get this baby and I am not even certain if my body will allow me to keep it!

Our ultrasound is on Tuesday, so until then things are going to drive me nuts!

5 weeks, our baby is the size of an apple seed!

Well today I am 5 weeks. According to the bump our baby is the size of an apple seed. I will take that over a poppy seed :) I am so paranoid, I caved today and bought another FRER. I don't know why...because the line came up dark as can be instantly. My husband keeps telling me to relax, but its hard when I barely have any symptoms. I know they will be coming up soon, but some now to make me feel pregnant would be nice. I find myself poking my boobs all the time to see if they hurt lol.

I figured I would join the club and do a weekly update on Sundays.

How far along? 5 weeks

Feeling: Pretty good for the most part, I am a little moody here and there and sometimes have random bouts of crying. Oh well lol.

Maternity clothes? None yet, but I bought a maternity tank for my bump shots and it is G-l-o-r-i-o-u-s ... why can't they make normal clothes like this?

Sleep: I am sooo sleepy these days. I find myself passed out by 10 at the latest. My husband loves it, and said he gets to go to bed early for the next 9 months.

Food cravings: I get a sweet tooth at night which is uncommon for me. I also am loving french fries lately (a bad craving to have) outside of that nothing much has changed.

Movement? Nope nothing, way too early.

What I miss? Nothing! I would not trade this for anything.

Best moment this week: Probably receiving my second beta and realizing that I am in fact pregnant and it is going on the right track :)

What I'm looking forward to: Our first ultrasound on the 22nd. I cannot wait!

Next Appointment: January 22nd.

Milestones: Baby graduated from a poppyseed to an appleseed!

Ignore the socks...haha.

4 weeks 4 days

Well I am 4 weeks and 4 days today. I had one more FRER to use up so it has been a couple days since my last. I used it this morning and finally I can relax! My test line is darker than the control line :)

I promise I won't pee on any more things...(I think).

I don't have many symptoms yet, still crazy tired at night and now my boobs are starting to hurt. Not to mention their change *ahem* in appearance. It is something to adapt to that is for sure. 

Nothing too interesting until our first ultrasound on the 22nd.

4 weeks 1 Day, Beta #2 is in!

I went in bright and early this morning for my second beta. I tell you what, work has been creeeeeping by lately because I am so anxious for good results. Our numbers were at 45 on Friday. Today we got them back and they were 150! They more than doubled which is good. I still wish they were higher but I will take it! I am praying and praying everything is going to go swimmingly. We prayed so hard for this baby and I do not want anything to happen to lose it. I have my first ultrasound on the 22nd, bright and early at 8:30. I cannot wait to see our little sweet pea!
