TEN WEEKS PREGNANT!

The second trimester is near!

How far along? 10 weeks...although I am late to writing this and now am 11 weeks...but here's the scoop on week 10.

Total weight gain: Pre pregnancy weight 135. Now at 141.

Maternity clothes? I have one pair of stretchy type jeans that fit me, but I have also been wearing some comfortable maternity capris and shorts! Things are definitely getting tighter around the waist. I love to wear a nice fitted shirt on my belly so maybe people won't think I am "just fat"!

Stretch marks? No new ones, still have my faded one's from Rylan's pregnancy though:)

Skin, Hair & Nails: My nails have been growing like crazy,and my skin has been pretty clear of pimples! I feel like my hair has grown alot as well. I know the hair on my legs has been growing fast!

Sleep: Sleeping has been a bit uncomfortable. Not only am I exhausted, I cant get comfortable! My back hurts, feet hurt, and need pillows everywhere to get any sleep. This has alot to do with working too...wears me out!

NEED a bigger bed ASAP.

Best moment this week: Nothing extraordinary I suppose. I ordered some new books, so that is exciting! Cant wait to get them!!

Miss anything? Being able to smell cooking food and not want to vomit! Im missing chinese food too....but cant being myself to be able to eat it.

Movement: Only gas for now. Cannot wait to feel some kicks!

Food cravings: Anything spicy or mexican food. Jalapenos, chips, and salsa!! Although, some heartburn has kicked in....ugh! I have been craving pizza, salad, lots of soup, walnuts, and orange juice, peanut butter,cheese, pasta, and cinnamon rolls!

Anything making you queasy or sick:Everything is making me quesy or sick. Every little smell makes me want to throw up! Rinsing Rylan's poo diapers is horrid! Cooking dinner is hard. I am sensitive to everything, it's ridiculous! I have puked many times now, mostly in the morning. The morning puke consists of stomach acid, which is horrible. And, Rylan thinks it's hilarious when I gag or throw up! Ive got a little audience when I am puking, oh joy!

Gender: It's far too early, but I cannot wait to know!

Labor signs: No way!

Symptoms: Backaches, exhausted, short of breath, peeing every 20 minutes, heartburn, emotional, BIG BOOBS, scatterbrain...(is that a symptom?)..ha. GAS. Oh my how I have forgotten the gas during pregnancy. Lots of nausea. Moody. And happy.

Belly button in or out? Making it's way out already. I have an innie/outie type belly button, so it's no surprise it's poking out so soon!

Can you see your toes? Yes!

Happy or moody most of the time: Ive been pretty moody. But mostly happy. And tired.Very emotional. Everything makes me cry!

Looking forward to: Knowing the gender!!! My belly bump to pop out! Hearing the heartbeat for the first time! I bought a doppler!!!I tried using it at 10 weeks 4 days, no heartbeat yet. I bought the Sonoline A Fetal Doppler off Ebay!!!
