9 weeks!!

Whew! This pregnancy has been NOTHING like my pregnancy with Brayden. This pregnancy has been totally different all around!  I have been sick since 7 weeks and not just the dry heaving but vomiting as well.  YUCK!  Thankfully when I had my first appointment I discussed it with the nurse and they gave me a prescription for an pill containing vitamin B6 and Ginger and thankfully that has helped but it definitely has not completely taken the sickness away. The other night I wanted Pizza Hut bread sticks and their cheese sauce so bad so after my husband got off work he ran to Pizza Hut to get a pizza and bread sticks.  That was all I thought about that day.  I enjoyed my slice of pizza and my bread sticks with cheese and within minutes I was in the bathroom.  Evidently this little one already knows what they do not like and Pizza Hut was one of them! :(  Although I have not felt like myself in WEEKS it is so worth it for this blessing!!

I decided to do something different this time around and do pregnancy highlights at the end of each blog entry to keep up with my weight gain,  size of the baby, cravings, best moments, etc.  So here is my first set of pregnancy highlights along with my 9 week pictures!

Pregnancy Highlights!

How far along?  9 weeks 1 day

Size of Baby?  Size of a grape

Weight Gain/Loss? None as of yet

Maternity Clothes? Not yet.  I am still in all my regular clothes/pants

Best Moment this week? My sweet little boy comforting his mommy as I was crying because I felt sooooo sick.  He came to me and wiped my tears and wrapped his little arms around me and gave me his sweet kisses letting me know that everything was ok.  He sure knows how to melt his mommy's heart!  

Gender?  Unknown

Movement? Not yet

Food Craving? Nothing really sounds good at all.

What I miss? Not feeling sick ALL THE TIME! :)

Sleep?  Okay, once I can get to sleep.  I usually go to bed sick at my stomach so it takes me a little bit to finally fall asleep.

What I am looking forward to?  I am looking forward to feeling better and my second trimester! Hopefully this sickness will disappear and I will feel more like myself again! :)

Symptoms? Exhaustion, Nauseousness, Vomiting, and peeing all the time!

Here is my 9 week photo!!!

Check back next week for our 10 week update.
