8w0d- Raspberry!

Hello world! I have made it another week! Wee!

Before I get razzed, yes, I still have plans to do some better pictures with a sign board in the future so just bare with me and the terrible bathroom mirror shots for now. I just can't find a sign board I like yet. :( Mr. C is at work again and again this was all I could manage in a pinch. I feel like such a dork.

Anyways:

How far along? 8w0d

Total weight gain/loss? Scale is broken. :/ I feel like I am up at least another lb.

Symptoms?- Some minor nausea when I eat; also the inability to freaking eat more than 6 bites at a sitting. It's getting old. :(

Maternity clothes? Yup. This bloat isn't subsiding and I pretty much said screw the Bella band. :/ I may still get it but at this point I don't really want to go back to my regular jeans.

Stretch marks? Tons but they were already there before this pregnancy. Using lots of lotion to hopefully keep the new ones at bay. Need to buy some body butter or Shea butter.

Sleep? Still exhausted all of the time. Rawr. I'm needing naps in order function. Still having vivid dreams.

Best moment last week? Telling my parents that I was pregnant. :D It felt so good to finally get that out in the open and find out that they are actually excited! I had to face time my mom while texting a picture to my dads phone so we could see their reaction. It was awesome. The picture I sent them is below. :p I know I'm a total cheese ball but they loved it!

Movement? Not anytime soon.

Food cravings? Still craving salt. Mostly pickles though and some candy like skittles.

Gender? Mom, dad and C have girl
Vibes but I keep calling squirt a boy. :/ still unsure.

Belly button in/out? In for a while.

What I miss: My hookah. :/ I still miss it a lot but I am starting to miss eating a real meal without feeling like crap after 6 bites.

What I am looking forward to?:
My next appointment. It will be an u/s, and b.w appointment on 1/22. They said to make sure C was there too.

Milestones: Baby is the size of a raspberry!

Ha. Don't judge me on this crappy bloat/ bump picture. This bloat is massive. Yes, I realize I'm also in my pj's. Sorry. My tmnt pajamas are sexy. You know you're jelly.

( For what it's worth, there is zero way I will ever take a picture before I leave for work on Sundays. Since I won't get home until at least 7pm and have to be in bed before 9, this is just what you get. :P)
