5 Weeks
How far along? 5 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 130.4 (+.2)
Maternity clothes? Just bought some maternity work pants so I won’t strangle this week.
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Sleep: Other than waking up in an anxiety attack last night, I’ve been sleeping really well.
Best moment this week: Getting such good beta numbers.
Movement: n/a
Food cravings/aversions: Bread/pastry. Salads with ranch dressing. Strong dislike of chocolate.
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: Having a normal heartrate that isn’t amped up with anxiety. Going to the bathroom without checking the TP ten times.
What I am looking forward to: Confirming the heartbeat. That’s all that I care about right now.
Weekly Wisdom: There is nothing you can do to change the outcome, so try to find time to enjoy what you can…
Milestones: Start of morning sickness today/yesterday.
Symptoms: Boobs still tingly and full feeling, but not sore. Gas, a lot of gas and bloating, so much so I got a stomach ache today after eating crap for food. Very gaggy, and my stomach was just roiling today, making me feel quite ill. Once in a while I get the ligament thing going on, sometimes it’s brief, sometimes it just stays there for a while. And today my legs and knees were aching, but I don’t understand that one.


Another week accomplished… just 35 (or so) left to go. I hope your pregnancy will fly by and you will be holding your son/daughter safely in your arms before you know it!
