9w0d- Olive

So here I am! Week 9! It's crazy. I can't believe just two weeks ago, we were telling our parents that we were expecting. Crazy how time flies.

This week wasn't that great as it was a very hard week due to the death in the family. We were doing all that we could to help them cope during this tragic time. It breaks my heart that a mother had to bury her child. That just shouldn't happen.

Anyhoofles-I won't draw or dwell on the negatives. I just wanted to say that my immediate family is awesome. I love how they rise up to help their loved ones. That kind of love and support makes me feel good and that I know that if I ever needed them, they would be there.

Besides that, nothing else going on. I'm just watching the ravens vs patriots game. Go Ravens! As they are taking the lead in the 4th, 28-13. Got to root for my old stomping grounds! <3

Anyways:

How far along? 9w0d

Total weight gain/loss? Not sure atm. No scale. :(

Symptoms?- Some minor nausea when I eat. Able to consume a little more but still only able to eat 1/3rd o what I used to before I get "full" but get that starving sensation a very short time later. Boobs are getting larger and more sore, some constipation, some cramping, stretching and minor spotting again. (boo!) Also having terrible break outs. I look like I'min 8th grade again!

Maternity clothes? Yup. This bloat isn't subsiding and I can't fit in my regular jeans. I love my maternity pants. Poppin' tags. I admit it! Love my thrift store <3 They usually have most maternity 50- 75% off so I pay 2.00 a pair! Now if only they had non- huge shirts. :/

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. (I keep forgetting! Damnit!)

Sleep? Still exhausted all of the time. Rawr. I'm needing naps in order function. Doesn't help that I worked through my days off instead of resting. :/

Best moment last week? There were two. One pregnancy related one not. The non baby related one was my Aunt and Uncle sending me flowers to thank me for helping them out so much this past week. Totally not required or expected. It was some of my favorite flowers.


The baby related one was because Mr. C has been really reserved with his excitement about this pregnancy. Like he's worried he's going to Jinx it. So when he was saying good night and "tucking" me into bed he said for the first time: "Good night you two. I love you". Made me squee inside but I didn't want to draw too attention to it, so I just said "We love you too." totally made my heart melt. It was only the once last week, but it still makes me happy to think that he is excited even though he doesn't always show it.

Movement? Not anytime soon.

Food cravings? Good hamburgers that I can't get when I crave them. Ruffles potato chips and pickles.

Gender? Mom, dad, Mr. C and T have girl vibes. I got the girl vibes going on this week.

Belly button in/out? In for a while.

What I miss: Pooping regularly, eating whatever I want, and hookah.

What I am looking forward to?:
My next appointment. It will be an u/s, and b.w appointment on Tuesday.

Milestones: Baby is the size of a green olive or a cherry!

Should be the last bathroom pic as C brought up and agreed to start taking weekly pictures. :P

So standard pictures plus I threw in the picture of what I was wearing vs what's underneath since it was not a form fitting shirt. I'm also not wearing any make up as I was getting ready for bed. Then the one of my cat photo
bombing me from the tub. Silly ass!

Side note: For some reason the blogger app wants the pictures in this order and wont let me change them. Lovely. I really hate this app!
