8 Weeks

How Far Along: 8 Weeks

Size of Baby: Approx. 0.63 inch 
 Total Weight Gained/Lost: 0 (actually 1/2 a pound, but I'm only going to add while pounds) using my at-home digital scale--although, I know it looks like I've gained 15lbs already. Trust me... I feel that way too!
Maternity Clothes: Not yet. I've bought a few maternity shirts that are too big right now but I wear them occasionally for comfort

Movement: Nope

Sleep: Much better. I've gotten use to sleeping on my side and usually only wake to go to the bathroom or to roll over from one side to the other. My arms tend to fall asleep though which is really annoying

What I miss: Beer. Don brought some Blue Moon beers home a few nights ago and I could just taste the deliciousness. I just want one with the biggest orange slice you've ever seen. Yummy! Only 200+ more days :)
Cravings: Holy Chick-Fil A sauce!! I can't get enough of it. Oh...its so devine! The smell, the color, the mouth watering taste... ah! Just pour me a glass! 
Aversions: None
Symptoms: Sore boobies, cramping occasionally, weight shifting to the front. I have also developed the weirdest symptom yet...sore teeth. Hopefully this is pregnancy related and my teeth aren't actually going to fall out. I went for a run this week and my teeth or gums or something ached--all over. It was the weirdest sensation. Am I falling apart? Dentures already?
Highlights from this week:  Reaching week 8. Some days go by fast and some really slow. The first trimester is 2/3 of the way over!

*Please observe how crooked my hips/waist/body is in the pictures below. I can't tell if I'm crooked or if one side of my waist is just bigger than the other side right now---so weird!
