4 Weeks

Here is a list I found on someone else's pregnancy blog and I thought it was super cute! I haven't decided if I will post this weekly, biweekly, or monthly. 


How far along? 4 Weeks!

Weight Gain/Loss: Nothing yet.

Maternity Clothes? Don't need them yet.

Symptoms: This pregnancy still feels so surreal so I keep thinking any symptom I have is all in my head. I have had a few moments of feeling sick. I don't crave any food which is so weird for me because before I was pregnant, if I started to feel hungry I could crave something, usually something fried, greasy and full of fat. Now, I don't feel like eating anything, so I'm taking this opportunity to make myself eat healthy stuff, especially if I'm not craving the bad stuff. My boobs are also really tender and full. I still can't believe that symptoms come this fast!

Best moment this week: Finding our we are going to have a baby and telling our family that I am pregnant. It still doesn't feel real!

Food Cravings? None yet, I'm just super thirsty all the time, I feel like I can never get enough water! I've read that an early symptom can be frequent urination but even with drinking 10 glasses of water a day, I don't go anymore than I used to, my body must really need the water.

Gender? Still too early to tell but we both think it's a boy and so does Jesse's mom. 

Belly button in or out? In.

Stretch Marks? None yet and I hope I don't get any!

Movement? No, too early.

What Im looking forward to: Seeing everyone's reactions when we tell them the news of us expecting!

Milestones: The blastocyst that will be our baby splits to form the placenta and the embryo, and the specialized parts of our baby's body begin to develop.

Baby Size: Our baby is the size of a poppy seed.

We're Expecting!!

This morning at 4:30 am I begged Jesse to let me take a home pregnancy test. He finally caved and gave me one that he had been hiding (I'm known for testing all the time so he hides them). I went and took the test, then gave it to Jesse and laid back in bed. A few minutes later he looked at the test and simply said, "I did it!" We are over the moon happy right now! I am due August 5th and am currently 3 weeks and 3 days pregnant!

Positive!

Here is a picture of my positive ovulation test and the peak reading on my fertility monitor! Praying this is our month and in a couple of weeks we will be blessed with a positive pregnancy test and a little baby growing inside me ! Crazy fact: I could possibly be 2 weeks pregnant right now, crazy to think about :)
