6 Weeks



How far along: 6 weeks
Size of baby: a sweat pea .25 inches
Total weight gain/loss: still minus 5 lbs
Maternity clothes: not yet but my jeans are tight from bloat and I ordered a bella band
Movement: not yet
Sleep: still have insomnia. I've tried everything but I'm still waking up multiple times per night and can't sleep past 5 - 5:30am. I've started going to bed early at 9:30pm so I can at least log some more hours even if they are interrupted sleep
What I miss: sleeping
Cravings: yes! Still very much dependent on what I see. I'm having a hard time not reaching over to my friend's plates at lunch and stealing their food haha! It always seems like I want what they are having more.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Still having problems with strong smells, fragrances and cologne. I sat next to someone eating mushroom pizza this week and had to move tables. The subway is also making me nauseous. I never realized how much the subway cars sway. I've also developed an aversion to most meat and have to choke down protein when I can.
Symptoms: nausea, insomnia, burping (very attractive haha), cravings, food aversions, happiness!
Happy or Moody most of the time:  HAPPY!! but I can still be set off pretty easily. I have a much lower tolerance for annoying things lately.
Best Moment this week: Seeing our baby and the heartbeat at our first ultrasound!! One of the best days of my life.
What I'm looking forward to: Our second ultrasound next Tuesday :)
