Week 8: Baby is the size of a raspberry! And apparently looking less like a reptile with a tail. 🙂 We’re moving in the right direction!
So here I am at “2 months” or so:
I don’t know if that’s a “bump” yet… I’m pretty sure that’s just me being bloated and catching up on eating after not eating enough during Week 7! But let’s just pretend that that’s all baby. 🙂
I’m going to plan on taking a photo of myself every 4 weeks (once a month-ish). This was my practice round… so I’m hoping the pictures look better in the future. And I’m hoping to get more creative with the white boards. I’m going to do my weekly updates with this handy thing I’ve seen on many other pregnancy blogs:
How far along: 8 weeks
Gender: no idea & no “gut feeling” prediction
Weight gain: I don’t know… I ordered a scale online though 🙂
Symptoms: still some nausea, a couple of days of vomiting, still tired, still have a sore lower back, and still sore boobs

Maternity clothes: I’ve ordered some and got some from my mom for my birthday, but not wearing any yet.
Stretch marks: No
Belly button in or out: in
Sleep: totally fine… I’m always tired, so bedtime is a wonderful time for me
Best moment this week:seeing a friend of mine at the “new pregnancy” class at the hospital on base — we’re due less than a week apart!
Miss anything: not really… shockingly not even wine!
Movement: not yet
Cravings: nothing really… I’ve been sneaking snacks into my work day so I’ve started eating bagels & cream cheese mid-morning. And they are SO yummy! I forgot how much I love eating them.
Looking forward to: our first ultrasound… it’s not soon enough!
