Yes, I'm still wearing Christmas-themed pajamas in this February photo. Judge away.
Milestones: Baby has grown about an inch since last week. Amazing!
Size of Meatball: A green olive. That doesn't seem like an inch bigger than a blueberry, but who am I to argue with the pregnancy websites.
Symptoms: If someone has ever had it, I've got it too. I'm like a walking cliche of pregnancy. And not only can I still not poop like a normal person, I am now a walking whoopee cushion. Never have I been this attractive!
Food cravings: Watermelon is my life force. I had a couple of plain bagels this week too.
Food aversions: Seriously, I can't talk about food right now.
Food aversions: Seriously, I can't talk about food right now.
Exercise: Not a damned thing. So sad.
Weight gain: I lost 1.6 lb this week and am down 6 lb total.
Week 10
2/5/2012 - 2/11/2012
Yep, a bloated belly shot in my undies. And you thought the Christmas pants in February couldn't be topped.
Milestones: No real milestones, but I'm amazed at how I can simultaneously lose weight and have a monster belly happening at the same time. Mother Nature is funny sometimes.
Size of Meatball: A little wrinkly prune. How appropriate, since they are becoming a staple in my diet these days.
Symptoms: I'm still living a glamorous life of dry heaving, night sweats, not pooping, and washing/brushing my hair about once a week. Don't worry, I'm still showering. Um, most of the time. But the next person who sits next to me in a meeting with a cup of aromatic coffee might end up with a lap full of half-digested watermelon.
Food cravings: I ate chocolate cake once. Okay, twice.
Food aversions: Everything is still disgusting. Except for watermelon, of course.
Food aversions: Everything is still disgusting. Except for watermelon, of course.
Exercise: Only 1 long walk. Leaving the bed is downright impossible these days.
Weight gain: I only lost a lb this week. I'm down 7 lb total.
