7 Weeks pregnant, say what?!!!
While I am writing this I am 8 weeks and 2 days pregnant, but I am still posting about my 7th week:)

How far along? 7 weeks

Total weight gain: Pre pregnancy weight 135. Now at 138.

I have been eating some junk lately. Dedicating myself to healthy eating and to continue to exercise!

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.

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. I sleep on my stomach, and now have gotten to a point where it's not comfortable to. I have to use a pillow inbetween my legs, and behind my back to ensure I am comfortable. Also, it's more comfortable on my right side, but I try to sleep on the left as much as possible.

Best moment this week: Not pregnancy related....Rylan started classes at The Little Gym! He loved it a whole lot!! I am so thrilled to continue to go! I think he is going to really love being involved in it:)

Miss anything? Not at the moment ;)

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

Food cravings: Anything spicy or mexican food. Jalapenos, chips, and salsa!! I ate a cheeseburger...and some salmon. Not very vegetarian of me. If I continue to crave meat I will be making a trip to the health food store for organic free range meat! I do plan to continue a vegetarian diet after baby is born. Hopefully mostly veg throughout this pregnancy.I have been dying to eat anything with ranch, which is soooo weird. Normally I think ranch is disgusting...but now I want to smother a piece of pizza in it. Eww, but oh so good. Im obsessed with peanut butter and jelly on a bagel!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Smells have been intense for me. Working in the restaurant business is the worst for that. In the mornings I have a hard time getting through breakfast. I gag with each bite I force myself to eat! Luckily towards the end of the day I usually feel less queasy. I try to snack often to avoid feeling sick, but it's hard to avoid. Im not severly sick, just a little naseous. Hopefully it stays mild. Also, if I nap in the day with Rylan I feel less sick when I wake up and eat.

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

Labor signs: No way!

Symptoms: Backaches, exhausted, dizzy when I stand up too fast. Off and on loss of appetite. My nipples are SO sore. Everytime Rylan latches I have to take a deep breath. It doesn't really hurt to nurse, but the latching on is horrible! I have to remind Rylan numerous times to be gentle with the boobies. Feeling queasy. Strange cravings of things I never ate before pregnancy. BIG BOOBS! I can see my belly growing quickly!

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!
