Week 10

November 25- December 1, 2013

(beginning of week 10 ) Thanksgiving Week!

How far along: Pregnancy week 10

Total weight gain: Unknown, but next week I will have a number.

Maternity clothes: Same old, same old.  I use a rubber band on skinny jeans, but regular jeans are normal.  Being that I have a week off from work, when I’m at home I’m wearing lounging pants and sweatshirts- if I could only wear this every day.

Stretch marks: None.

Sleep: Hello middle of the night bathroom breaks!  This week I have officially started going to the bathroom once during the night.  It is hard because our house is so cold that I have to talk myself into getting out of the bed.

Best moments this week: Being able to take a nap everyday! Plus I also can feel my stomach changing.  My lower abdomen near my pelvic bones is firmer that the rest of my stomach.  A sign of a growing baby.

Miss anything: This week meeting up with Will for lunch was hard.  We decided on getting sandwiches, which sounded great, but then realize at the restaurant that there weren’t many options for me.  Oh how I miss salami sandwiches.

Food cravings: Nothing really, just eating snacks.

Anything making you queasy: No, but my sense of smell is on a roll. 

Gender: Unknown, just a healthy baby.

Labor signs: None.

Belly button in or out: In.

Wedding rings on or off: On.

Happy or moody:  This week I experienced hormonal emotions.  I found out by myself that one of our chickens got taken away during the night by another creature.  I was sobbing uncontrollably for an hour.  Even typing this make me want to cry.  I tell Will this is why I can’t have chicken, I get too attached.  So long dear chicken friend Collin, Collin the Chicken.

Looking forward to: Our doctor’s appointment next Tuesday!
