9 WEEKS!

So not sure who reads this blog, but really hoping its just my sister, my husband and maybe a few randoms here and there as this is a BIG secret and we haven't told many people yet!


How far along? 9 weeks
Baby size: the size of a medium sized green olive
Total weight gain/loss:No idea, but I feel/look the same as always
Maternity clothes? Not yet, all my normal clothes still fit. My stretchy belt is too uncomfortable to wear for long, but that's about it
Stretch marks? Nothing yet.
Sleep: Not that uncommon for me to have to get up 1 or 2 times during the night to go toilet. Also used to have pretty bad insomnia but i've started using a hypnotherapy app and I've been sleeping much better (even slept right through two nights in a row!)
Best moment this week: Joshy serenading me and Mooch last night with silly made up songs about pregnancy and Moochi
Movement:Nothing yet
Food cravings: Nothing major, although I absolutely had to have a fruit salad the other day. And jalapenos with cheese. And anything with chilli. And water. Water is my new best friend.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not much, although i couldn't eat the steamed brocoli last night, it just didn't smell right and made me feel a bit queasy. Oh and I had a lovely, yummy creamy cake (gateaux) yesterday thanks to work, but then felt a bit sick afterwards. Other than that, not really feeling sick at all, unless I don't eat for an hour or two. So I'm constantly munching these days.
Food aversions: Not really a food aversion, but I'm surprised by the fact that I'm just not interested in chocolate these days. Previously, once I started, I could easily devour at least half a block of cadbury chocolate. Now, I have a piece if it is offered and thats it. Just not interested.
Have you started to show yet: Nope. To the point that sometimes I wonder if I really am pregnant!
Gender:  It's going to be a surprise!
Symptoms: Other than needing to pee ALOT, moodiness, crying uncontrollably over silly things (like the ending of Bicentenial man - really didn't like that!), and feeling hungry alot, I haven't had too many problems this week.
Things I miss: sushi. feta. blue cheese. and alchohol. I thought pregnant women were supposed to develop an aversion to alchohol, but when the waiter put a glass of red wine in front of me on Saturday, I swear it smelt delicious.
Labor Signs: Nothing yet.
Belly Button in or out? Very much in
Wedding rings on or off? On
Looking forward to: Going for our dr's appointment on Thursday. Hasn't happened yet but I can't wait for a check up as this all feels surreal. Would be nice to get some reassurance that all is well with the little one.
