Filed under: knocked up — Lauren @ 12:18 pm Edit This



Remember that post about BIONIC FATIGUE? You’ll have to excuse my pitiful attempt at blogging this week.
And for those of us who can’t participate……..

This week, the baby kind of looks like this….

Week 8: Raspberry



Baby Size: Raspberry
How far along? 8 Weeks!
Weight gain/loss: Some days it’s like +1 and some days it’s + 4.
Maternity clothes? No, but I love my scrubs. I did buy a maternity dress to wear to a wedding in a few weeks. I didn’t know what the status of my bump would be by then.
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep? I’m sleeping, I just feel like no matter what I do, it’s not enough sleep. Refer to bionic fatigue.
Best moment this week? Not baby related at all, but we found an amazing dining room table this week.
Food cravings: Chinese food, and I had it for dinner tonight.
Gender: Boy…or girl…..
Belly button in or out? In
Movement? no
What I miss? Still beer…and right now, I am fiending for a diet coke.
What I’m looking forward to: Still looking forward to my first appointment. It got moved :(
Symptoms: During week 7, I started getting really nauseated and carsick. I’ve never been car sick in my life. Yesterday, I almost lost control of my nausea, which being a total control freak, I’m not really ok with. Side notes: I haven’t been telling you guys that the amazing in utero/baby belly pictures are coming from this website. All of the fruit images have been retrieved from google images. I’m not trying to take credit for stuff I didn’t come up with. And really, who can say no to a raspberry AND a turtle?
 

Week 7: Blueberry

I want to summarize why I missed week 7 with a quote from this book. This quote is from 7 weeks, 5 days:

To Do List
Look up “bionic fatigue in the dictionary.
Can’t remember where your dictionary is? No problem.
Bionic Fatigue (noun): The excruciating and bone-crushing tiredness found in early pregnancy that is unlike any other fatigue you will experience in your life and that no one but another pregnant woman really understands.
Anyways, for week 7, baby L as s/he has been dubbed is the size of a blueberry, and kicking my butt.
