Week 11 Wrap Up

How far along? 11 Weeks

Baby is the size of a: Small Lime

Total weight gain/loss: Down .8 for the week and 17.8 total... I'm so conflicted. I was so unhappy with my starting weight, so I'm halt to be losing, but not happy for the reasons I'm losing! Dr says baby looks good though and that it will get what it needs... I just might whither away in the process. Apparently she sas I should have called a while ago for a prescription to help with the nausea. I assumed I was doing pretty good since I hadn't gotten sick a lot. She doesn't want me to keep losing much more and would like to see it level off if not start to gain. 

Symptoms: EXHAUSTED.

Wedding rings on or off? On

Belly Button in or out? In

Sleep:  Totally dead. And I'm generally in bed by 9:00. I'm getting about 9 hours on average each night. Still wake up at least twice though. 

Food cravings: Cookie cake! JD made me eat dinner before he would let me get it. And fried pickles. Love me some fried pickles.
 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Just strong smells bothering me. Still struggling with meat. It generally has to be "hidden" in my foods. 

Miss anything? Cooking at home, or I should say JD cooking. We haven't cooked dinner in about 6 weeks. I've developed a serious fear of smells.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Bitchy. And emotional. Basically a roller coaster.

Workouts: Slowly increased cardio to 5 rounds of 4 minutes on the elliptical. Actually got to a point where my lungs weren't screaming at me! We also changed up the way that I'm pulling the sled which sucked, but still proud that I'm out there working out 3 days a week for about an hour and a half.  

The Bump: 38 inches

Have you started to show yet: A little bit, but it's definitely not obvious. Losing weight has kind of counter balanced any belly growth... Maybe?

Stretch marks? No

Maternity Clothes? Nope. I did buy a bigger pair of jeans a few weeks ago because mine had gaping holes in the crotch/inner thighs from rubbing so much, and you can only patch those things so many times. Unfortunately I've lost about 5lbs since buying those bigger jeans so they are now major baggy.

Gender Prediction: This was the first week I thought boy because I think I saw "something" on the ultrasound. Also had a dream!

Any Names Picked Out Yet: Same ones. 

Labor Signs: Yeah right

Movement: Yeah right

Best moment this week: Ultrasound and telling a few girlfriends when we all went out to eat!
  
Looking forward to: Telling all our friends and family next week!!
