10 weeks – THE SECRET IS OUT! Finally. I thought this week would never come! Bubba’s parents were of course thrilled/emotional, it’s their first grandchild! My family was so surprised! We told them over Easter weekend. Had a big egg with a onesie that said “I love GiGi & Poppy” (so they immediately thought it was from my brother and sister-in-law who are 8 weeks ahead of me!) then there was a smaller egg which had our sonogram in it. So relieved to finally get the secret out. I feel great, no pregnancy symptoms anymore, just feel fat, and can pretty much eat whatever now.
How far along: 10 weeks 2 days
Total weight gain: Probably about 5-6 pounds (ugh)
Maternity clothes: Had to break down and buy some maternity pants this week because buttoned jeans were too uncomfortable. And I am honestly so excited at how comfortable they are! They aren’t the big banded elastic yet, just the short elastic, but I may just wear them forever.
Stretch marks: Applying Palmer’s to prevent them…. here’s hoping.
Sleep: Not getting up nearly as much at night…usually just once.
Best moment of this week: Telling my family FINALLY and posting to social media so now everyone knows!
Miss anything: Feeling skinny…..
Movement: Not yet! It’s still growing in there!
Food cravings: I craved chocolate covered strawberries this week so I made some… haha..
Anything making you queasy or sick: Haven’t felt queasy any… sometimes smells get to me if they are strong.
Have you started to show yet: That’s still debatable… :-/ My stomach looks huge, but is it from the baby? I don’t think so. It’s definitely growing though!
Gender: Don’t know yet!
Labor signs: TBD
Belly button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or moody most of the time: Been a little moody this week :-/
Looking forward to: Going to the beach this weekend with my sister and her 3 kids! Hopefully I can make it through without crashing! Not looking forward to putting on a bathing suit (a one piece at that) but oh well.
