11 week Update
I am officially 11 weeks today! This was baby's first picture taken at 9 weeks!!
How far along: 11 weeks
Total weight gain:0 pounds! Although I have gone up a cup size and I'm starting to get a little pooch in the belly
Size and growth of the baby: at 11 weeks your baby is almost fully formed. At just over 1 1/2 inches long, he or she is about the size of a fig. Your baby's hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under the gums and some of the bones are beginning to harden.
He or she is already busy kicking and stretching, and these tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. Movements will become more frequent but you won't feel these acrobatics for a few months.( All information taken off babycenter.com)
Sex: Too soon to tell
Maternity clothes: None yet although my mom and I went to Pea in a Pod and Gap Maternity yesterday and I bought some new bras which I desperately needed and also bought some jeans and shirts
Sleep: I get exhausted throughout the day and am usually asleep by 9 or 10 at night. However I am now getting up about every 3 hours to use the bathroom
Best moment(s) of the week: Hearing the heartbeat and going maternity clothes shopping. It made it seem even more real
Movement: To soon to feel anything yet
Food cravings/aversions: Mushrooms make me sick. No cravings yet, in fact I don't have much of an appetite
Morning sickness: This has gotten worse within the last week or two. I have the dry heaves all day and then about every 2 days I will be sick all day throwing up
Symptoms: Morning sickness, or in my case all day sickness. Headaches, tender and sore breasts, a back that hurts all the time. Next week I schedule myself a prenatal massage so hopefully that helps. Dizziness, fatigue, nausea, dry heaves
Labor signs: None yet thankfully! It would be very scary if I was having any
Belly button in or out: In
What I miss: Nothing
What I'm looking forward to: Being out of the first trimester in a week. My prenatal massage and hopefully positive results on my 24 hour urine test that I just started today

ReplyDeleteHope you start to feel better soon! The 24 hour is LOADS of fun (note the sarcasm!). I just finished mine this morning. Hope you have good results.
ReplyDeleteAs for the massage...I am jealous and still need to schedule myself one!
How awesome! Maternity clothes shopping always made it seem more real to me, If you continue being sick after the 1st trimester ask for zofran, its a wonder drug (safe) that will keep you from throwing up and being nauseous.
ReplyDeleteThis is so exciting! I hope your morning sickness tones down.. and I'm sure that massage is gonna be amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you get over the morning sickness soon! All in all sounds like you are doing great!
