8w6d: Raspberry



How far along? 8 weeks, 6 days
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but rubber-band ready for after a big meal!
Stretch marks: None yet...trying to use the cream nightly that was a gift from a sweet friend.
Sleep: Depends on the day. Probably go to bed way too late for a preggers, but it's the only time I get to see Daniel.
Best moment this week: Belly laughing with Daniel as he wakes the baby in my belly up in the morning, as if I can't hear him say "GOOOOOD MORNING BABY!!!" 
Miss Anything: Wine, and diet coke
Movement: Nothing yet, too early
Symptoms:  Strange cravings at different times of the day; Headaches; and very sore ta-ta's
Food cravings: Milkshakes or smoothies!
Anything making you queasy or sick: I HATE MORNING SICKNESS!  Cigarette smoke is the biggest trigger...and yes, I will puke on your shoes if you blow it my way.
Have you started to show yet:  Nothing yet too crazy.  Food belly mainly.
Gender:  No idea yet...love to listen to Daniel's predictions after reading old wives tales on the internet
Labor Signs:  No, unless my crazy dreams count!
Belly Button in or out?:  In still....very IN!
Wedding rigns on or off: On still; not sure how I'm going to handle taking these babies off
General Mood:  Good, except when I get sleepy or h"angry"
Best advice this week:  Came from my co-worker, who is 20 weeks ahead of me.  She gave me some good questions to ask the doctor at our next appointment!
Worst advice this week:  None yet, but I'm sure it will be coming!
Exercise:  Some walking since the weather is so pretty.  Too tired after work to do much else these days.
Looking forward to:  This journey with Daniel; Telling everyone our good news (soon!)
