8 weeks

Weeks: 8

Weight Gain: +5 pounds (+3 from last week). I'm thinking this is still just my fluctuating weight, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's down 1 or 2 pounds next week.

Symptoms: Oh wow, this nausea/morning sickness is killing me. I still haven't actually vomited at all and I hope it stays that way, but there have definitely been boughts of dry heaving and points where I feel like all I want to do is die. The fatigue seems better, though.

Belly Size: I haven't taken my weekly picture yet, but I'm in all maternity clothes now. I was trying to make a few non-maternity shirts work and they literally ride up and don't cover everything anymore, so all maternity shirts from now on. Which means I need to do some serious shopping!

Baby Size: Baby is .63 inches long and weighs about .04 oz. Think Raspberry size.

Next Appointment: TODAY!!!! Hooray! I've been waiting for so long, yet the weeks seemed to go by pretty fast. Even though I'm 8 weeks today, I've only really known for 4 weeks and that seems like a long time already. I hope the rest of the pregnancy goes by just as fast. Oh and hopefully only 4 more weeks of possible morning sickness, unless I become one of the unlucky ones who have it the whole pregnancy. I will post a separate post either tonight or tomorrow on how my appointment goes.
