9 Week Bumpdate



Baby is the size of a grape!

How far along?  9 weeks
Total weight gain/loss?  already 7 pounds!
Maternity clothes?  haha actually yes!  I wore a maternity shirt the other day because I'm already starting to get a little belly and needed something baggy.  also, I'm sick of all my clothes anyway so right now I'm excited for maternity clothes!
Stretch marks?  nope!
Best moment this week?  telling my mom I'm pregnant!  she is the first person we've told.  we were going to wait until the family reunion (and still are to tell the rest of the family) but I need a ride to my next doctor's appointment since Mark won't be able to take off work again.  also, I was going crazy not telling her!!  it was much easier last time when she was hundreds of miles away!
Miss anything?   I just copied and pasted this survey from my 9 week post with Clark and I have to say I agree with my answer there...energy!!!  I'm feeling the exhaustion so much more this time around.  Mark lets me sleep in on Saturdays and it's the only day I wake up feeling rested and not sick!  I haven't worked out at all yet this pregnancy (I blame it on the heat and not being able to be outside for more than 5 minutes!) so I'm really looking forward to the second trimester when I hopefully have more energy for anything other than just taking care of mine and Clark's basic necessities.
Movement?  okay I swear I've been feeling this baby since about 5 weeks!  and it's getting more and more noticeable but all the websites tell me I can't possibly be feeling movement at this point.  so maybe it's gas pains (because I've been really gassy this pregnancy!)
Food cravings?  all the time!  yesterday it was salad and so we went to Chili's and I got the bottomless soup & salad and ate two whole salads and two bowls of loaded potato soup.  OMG it was so good!!!
Anything making you queasy or sick?  haha, last time I said salads were making me queasy!  basically, heating up anything for Clark to eat makes me queasy!  and when I first wake up in the mornings, anytime my stomach is empty.
Have you started to show yet?  I have a teeny little bump!  well, more like a curve in my normally flat tummy so that only people who are really looking and know me really well might be able to tell.  but I have a feeling at 12 weeks I will definitely be showing!!
Gender?  I've been feeling girl all along!
Labor signs?  no, thank goodness
Belly Button in or out?  in
Wedding rings on or off?  on!
Happy or Moody most of the time?  pretty moody unfortunately.
Looking forward to?  Sean and Kara coming at the end of this week!!
