7 Weeks

How far along?  7 weeks and 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: I'm back down to 149
Maternity clothes? No
Stretch marks? No
Sleep:  I've been getting 8-10 hours of sleep every night, but I am still tired.  Baby Norman is sucking up all of my energy.  I like going to bed early, though.  I've been waking up once in the night to pee.
Best moment this week:  When I rocked at a meeting I had on Thursday.  I was totally prepared and wasn't feeling nauseous at the time.
Have you told family and friends: Yes
Miss Anything? Coffee
Movement: No
Food cravings: When I actually have an appetite I've been craving salty things like popcorn, Cheez-Its, and pretzels.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Yes...a lot of things.  Particularly meat, vegetables (including salad), and oatmeal (tried to eat it Wednesday morning and immediately got sick).
Have you started to show yet: I feel different, but I'm sure other people can't tell yet.
Gender prediction: Boy
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms:  Nausea, fatigue, raging hormones (crying at commercials), sore boobs, and sensitive to smell (I can't stand my body wash, deoderant, or hand sanitizer anymore).  I basically feel like an alien is invading my body.  I don't feel like myself at all...like I'm constantly sick.  After hearing me complain all week, my husband said, "Well, at least you're not on your period."  I started cracking up and thought, you're right...there's that.  I love him for being so optimistic.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Moody
Looking forward to: Friday, November 16. That will be our first appointment with the nurse practicioner. I'm hoping she'll let us hear the heartbeat!
