9 weeks

Weeks: 9 (Can you believe how fast the weeks are coming now?)

Weight Gain: +4 pounds (which is -1 from last week). I'm basically fluctuating between +2 and +5 so until I get over +5 pounds, I'm not going to consider anything really weight gain yet. Hopefully that won't start happening until around 20 weeks.

Symptoms: After last week's appt, the doctor gave me some meds for the nausea and I have only taken it 1 day so far. It did help but then I got a headache and thought that was a side effect, but then I kept getting them the next couple of days. So I have switched to glasses and no contacts and drinking water like it's going out of style to stay hydrated. That seems to keep the headaches away. The nausea still comes and goes, most days not too bad though. Otherwise, I have to pee quite often, especially in the middle of the night.

Belly Size: It's definitely getting bigger, but I haven't taken a picture yet this week. Maybe I should start measuring with TP????

Baby Size: Baby is 1 inch long and weighs .07 ounces. In other words, a green olive (not a black olive, a green olive).

Next Appointment: Still September 21!

We leave for Chicago tomorrow. Probably won't post anything while I'm gone, but I should have some goods pics when we get back.
