How far along? 14 weeks!
Total weight gain: -3 lbs, not much has changed yet here but I have a feeling it is going to start rapidly changing soon!
Maternity clothes? still in regular clothes but jeans are definitely tighter this week!
Stretch marks? no and my mom informed this weekend that she didn't get ANY stretch marks with my brother. It wasn't until my glorious self was borne into the world that she got a few. So does that mean I am in the clear for our first baby?
Sleep:? I'm sleeping okay, same with the never ending bathroom breaks and sometimes I do wake up at 5am and my mind is racing with all the exciting things going on i.e. (what are we going to name the baby, how do I get Joey to agree to the name I like?, maybe I can sneak the name I like onto the birth certificate when Joey isn't looking and he won't be able to do anything about it......)You know, things like that.
Best moment this week: Having my mom in town and all the fun baby stuff we did all weekend. There really is no substitute to family and my mom has been such a great support system with the pregnancy. Also, having the doctor tell us its 90% a boy! Still no guarantees, but I'd bet a pretty penny on it at this point. I was hoping we would get some better pictures from the ultrasound on Friday but unfortunately we were too focused on trying to decipher what was in between Baby Cefalu's legs ( we promise not to do this anymore once he's born) that we didn't end up getting him in a good position for a picture. The few we did take, he looks like an alien. I think Joey might have actually screamed when he saw the picture. Therefore, I still havent decided whether to stick those pictures on the blog and let everyone have a good laugh or scream of terror.
Miss Anything? I doubt a day will come when my answer doesn't include Margaritas, Bloody Mary's and Sushi. Also,we celebrated Joeys first Fathers Day with brunch at Newport Landing and champagne has never looked so good. The doctor officially said I can have a glass of champagne or a few bites of sushi now that we are in the second trimester but I am planning on saving that for the 3 weddings we have coming up. I additionally would like to note that I miss shopping for clothes that a 16 year old would wear and thinking I might look cute in that. I think I shed a tear (or a hysterical sob ) when shopping with Steph last week and realizing that my closet will soon to be reduced to moomoo's and grannie panties.
Movement: Nah, dont think so.
Food Cravings: Bloomingdales Poached Pear and Chicken Salad is changing my life right now- I think I am consuming about 3x a week right now- if I had more time, I would be there every single day- no seriously. Really any balsamic salad is making me happy these days, as long as there is some fruit thrown in and a little stanky cheese (gorgonzola, feta, whateva you like). I could also eat sundried tomatoes for every single meal and the amount of hummus and dips in our fridge is starting to get a little awkward. Did I mention Bloomingdales salad?
Anything making you queasy or sick: I'm not too into mexican food these days, which is weird because I normally LOVE it. I have officially thrown up In-N-Out so many times that I can't even imagine eating it anymore- which is a VERY sad borderline sickening thing to say. Meat is seeming a little funky too.
Gender: BOY MAYBE???? 90% is pretty good chances, friends.
Labor Signs: Negative.
Symptoms: So far my throwing up episodes have been every other day at least BUT as of week 14, I am thrilled to announce that I have had my first account of throwing up every 2 days!!!! Might not sound exciting to you normal non pregnant folk out there but after you have memorized the ins and outs of every toilet in the house, and in restaurants, and in friends houses, it starts sounding pretty darn fantastic.
Belly Button in or out? This question is more and more disturbing every time I read it. Really? Does it need to pop out?
Wedding rings on or off? on. I will swallow it whole before I voluntarily take off my ring.
Happy or Moody most of the time: So very happy!! Only cranky when I'm not being fed, similar to our beagle Winston. I wouldn't put it past me to start barking if denied my food of choice.
Looking forward to: Joey's parents coming into town this weekend! Like I said, there is no substitute for family and this is the first time we have seen them since we have been pregnant! It should be a beautiful weekend and I can't wait for more baby talk, shop and fun!
