Bump Day

How far along? 12 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Down 2 from last week for a total loss of 4. Hmmm....had to check that number 3 times after eating like a P-I-G PIG all weekend long. Guess I won't complain!
Maternity clothes? Nope...I think it's kind of an accomplishment really. I did buy three maternity shirts at Gap last week....not because I needed them, but it was a super sale! Oh...and get this for irony. My jeans, still fitting fine. My scrubs....with a drawstring waist....snug around the pooch. WTF? I thought I'd be able to sport the scrubs through this whole ordeal. Guess not!
Stretch marks? no
Sleep: Still going to bed at 9pm. I hope this energy everyone talks about in the 2nd Tri isn't some huge pregnancy myth or I'm gonna be one pissed mama!
Best moment this week: Discovering my soft squishy pudge has turned into a firm TEENY, TINY, ITTY BITTY bump that does not disappear overnight like the bloat did.
Movement: nope....other than the gas. Now there's a side effect no one tells you about!
Food cravings: Cereal. Multi grain cheerios to be exact. The nausea has come back a bit again this week, so nothing too crazy.
Gender: Still thinking boy. The feeling is getting stronger too...I don't sense girl at all!
Labor Signs: Nope. Thank God.
Belly Button in or out? Still in...does it really ever have to pop out? Outties give me the creeps.
What I miss: The brief time I was nausea free! Please come back!
What I am looking forward to: 2nd Trimester...only 1 week, 3 days to go!
Weekly Wisdom: If you're trying to have a baby....keep up on your hair. Otherwise 12 weeks in you'll have some SCARY roots. I know they say it's harmless....but I'm paranoid and waiting to get out of 1st Tri before touching these bad boys up.
Milestones: We are under 200 days people!

I do see a little bit of baby bump this week....weird about the scrubs feeling snug...just go with some basic colored elastic waist uniform pants. That's what I always wore until the end.

Looking fabulous! Love the bright colored shirt! (also jealous of all your closet space, but that's neither here nor there) ;) My friend said she was gaining no weight and then went in one day and had gained 10 lbs and screamed..literally.. haha.. :) High five on the jeans fitting, lovely! The same friend who screamed said her fav ones are Gap maternity...like out of all jans she's ever owned.. haha....just a tidbit when ya need some! :)
