Bumpdate - Week 11

How far along? 11 Weeks

Baby is the size of? A fig.  Baby is only about 1.5 inches long.

Total weight loss/gain? I did not weigh myself this week.

Maternity Clothes? Not yet but I did pull them out.  Regular clothes that fit are pretty slim.  Leggings are worn most days.

Stretch Marks? No sign of them yet.

Sleep? Sleep has been pretty good.  I was very restless last night after a busy Halloween weekend.  I am super tired and have no energy at all.  I try to nap when Harrison naps, even if for just 10-15 minutes.

Best moment of this week? Slowly telling more and more people.  One week until we are through the first tri-mester!

Worst moment of this week?  I don't think I went into much detail on my last bumpdate because I figured I would write a separate post about it but I never got around to it..sorry kiddo.  But anyways at my OBGYN visit, since I am AMA (Advanced Maternal Age) I was treated totally different than I was when I was pregnant with Harrison.  The doctor discussed having extra tests done that I was never asked to do with Harrison.  Its a little frightening to think about it.  We are still undecided if we will do all the recommended screenings or not and I think we will just stick to non-invasive for now unless we feel something is otherwise needed when we get to that point.

Miss Anything? Not really

Movement? Sometimes I think I feel a twinge but really I'm not sure if its just in my head.

Food Cravings? I wish I was craving food.  I have no appetite at all.  All I want to eat is soups and Ritz crackers.  We got Chipotle one night and I can usually eat my whole burrito in one sitting because I LOVE Chipotle.  But it took me three meals to finish it and I ended up throwing the rest away and it about killed me.  That is so NOT like me when it comes to eating Chipotle.

Anything make you queasy or sick?
 Ugh see above.  So sad I feel like eating nothing.  When I was pregnant with Harrison, I ate like a horse.

Symptoms? Tired, Tired, and Tired.  I have absolutely no energy and just want to sleep all day which with a two year old is naturally impossible.  My house is a mess and I have no energy to do anything about it.  I remember this was right around the week when I got my energy back when I was pregnant with Harrison so I am hopeful it will return soon.

Have you started to show yet? I feel like I popped real quick in the beginning and have not really grown much since.  I also think I am gaining weight in other places and not just in my belly.





Harrison remembered to weigh himself but forgot to remind me!  
He is standing on the scale in the pictures below.


Gender Predictions? We haven't told many people but some that know are already saying a girl.  I really don't know but this pregnancy is similar to Harrison's so maybe another boy!

Labor signs? Fingers crossed not for awhile.

Belly Button in or out? In

Exercise? Ha, no.  Lots of walking with Harrison but no real time dedicated to actual exercise.

Happy or Moody most of the time? Despite the tiredness I would say I am pretty happy.  I do get a little frustrated with Harrison when I am exhausted and he doesn't listen or makes things harder on me.

Looking forward to? Having my energy back.

Any irrational worries? ZIKA.  So annoying.  Another thing the doctors office scared me about.  I was already taking preventative measures but now I feel like I just smell like bug spray all the time.
