Symptoms: This week I started to notice that if I eat too much sugar, I feel super nauseous! I'm actually glad about this, though. I'd be stuffing my face with desserts if that wasn't the case! My belly is still growing like crazy, but I've had more energy.... especially early in the morning! I've been waking up pretty early, and haven't been able to get back to sleep. My body must be preparing itself for the early mornings!
Weight gain: I've gained 3 pounds total.
Maternity clothes: I'm still not wearing maternity shirts... just stretchy ones. I'm, also, mostly in maternity jeans (some regular ones, still).
Cravings: I feel like this changes every week. This week, I've been loving bagels and cream cheese, things with melted cheese (yeah, not good!), and still carrots.
Aversions: I'm still not drinking coffee. Things with a lot of dairy (besides cereal) are still nauseating. I'm used to craving chocolate (pre-pregnancy) and that has not been sounding good. Weird!
Gender: I still feel pretty confident that this little one is a girl. This pregnancy is pretty similar to when I was pregnant with T. We'll see! 7 more weeks! :)
This week, I had to remind myself that my tummy is expanding for a great reason! Sometimes, it's hard comparing (I know I shouldn't compare!) this pregnancy to the last one. When I was pregnant with T, I didn't wear maternity clothes nearly this early. I just have to remember that the more kids you have, the sooner you look pregnant. It's only natural. Our bodies are amazing. I just feel huge (haha, I know I'll look back at this when I'm 38 weeks, and just laugh!!)! :)
T will be a fabulous big sister. She's been "rocking" her babies to sleep, lately. So cute!
