5 Weeks


I've scheduled our first doctor's appointment on Monday, May 21st at 1:50pm.  This way Joey and Steve can come with me and share in this moment as a family.  I also made the appointment with the same midwife (Danette) that delivered Joey.  I really like her and had the best labor/delivery experience because of her and the delivery nurse, Angela.


How far along: I think 5 weeks and a due date of 12/31/12

Weight gain/loss: None yet

Maternity clothes: Nope

Stretch marks: No and I'm trying to use the cocoa butter day and night.

Symptoms: Out of breath feeling, tired around 2 or 3pm.  I can nap for 20-30 minutes and feel so much better.  Light cramping here and there but nothing significant.

Sleep:  I fall asleep pretty quickly, but wake up a couple times a night to change sides or just get comfortable.  I think it's just me and my restless mind.

Best moment this week: Visiting with Brandi and the kids last week.  It was so much fun!

Food cravings: Having trouble finding things that sound good.  I don't have strong hunger pains but do feel better when I eat little meals throughout the day.

Gender: My first instinct was girl, but I have no rhyme or reason.

Belly button in or out: Too early

Movement: Too early

What I miss: Nothing at the moment.

What I'm looking forward to: Lyla's 1st birthday party is on Saturday and I am excited to see Joey with all of the kids.  And hanging out with the family.
