9 Weeks, 1 Day



How far along? 9 Weeks, 1 Day

Total weight gain? I forgot to check

Symptoms? Still the nausea.  I'm so tired of it.  And the vivid pregnancy dreams are wearing me out.

Baby Size:  Green Olive

Sleep? Can't get enough!  Sleeping pretty well too, thanks to the anti-nausea stuff.  Except for the stupid dreams.

Best Moment last week? I actually had two days when I felt decent!

Movement? too soon

Food Cravings? milk and sushi.  Not together though.

What I miss? Not feeling sick.  Being able to go on walks and play with Cate.

What I am looking forward to? The next sonogram.  I've been getting extras, thanks to the OHSS, so the next sonogram is at just over 11 weeks.  I never get tired of those.  We'll finally get to hear the heartbeat, and hopefully see that my freaking ovaries have shrunk.

Milestones? I've made it 9 weeks and 1 day without throwing up! 

How is Daddy? Tired of me being sick, I think.  Also dead set on naming the baby Shadow.  No.

8 Weeks, 2 Days



How far along? 8 Weeks, 2 Days

Total weight gain? 3 lbs

Symptoms? Ugh.  Nausea.  I'm so not good with the nausea.  Of course, I'm sure a lot of it is caused by the OHSS, but since there's no way to differentiate between morning sickness and OHSS related nausea....  Also, my boobs hurt.  A lot.  

Stretch Marks? I think I'm going to delete this question.  How on earth am I supposed to see new ones in all the old ones from Cate????

Sleep? I love it.  It's the best thing in the whole world.  I'd sleep all day if I could.  Of course, I have the super-awesome vivid dreams, but still.

Best Moment last week? Telling Cate.  She was so excited.  She couldn't wait to tell everyone she saw "my mommy has a baby in her tummy, and I'm going to be a big sister!"

Movement? too soon

Food Cravings? Right now, I'm usually lucky if anything sounds good.  Did go through a phase where I wanted salsa on everything, but that was before the nausea hit.  

What I miss? drinking.  haha

What I am looking forward to? The next sonogram.  I've been getting extras, thanks to the OHSS, so the next sonogram is at just over 11 weeks.  I never get tired of those.  We'll finally get to hear the heartbeat, and hopefully see that my freaking ovaries have shrunk.

Milestones? I've made it 8 weeks and 2 days without throwing up! 

How is Daddy? Not quite as excited as I am yet....I don't think it's sunk in for him.
