Week 7 Update

Total weight gain:

1.5 pounds.

Body changes:

Bloated, thicker hair, stronger nails, pointy breasts.

Sleep: 

Sleeping very well.

Best moment this week: 

Going home to Greenwich and seeing Maia play with her nephews.

Gender: 

Thinking boy this week...

Food Cravings / Aversions: 

Craving healthy foods. In the morning, I immediately crave orange juice and less coffee. I've been craving less sweets lately. Overall I have no aversions towards any foods but I like to eat more on the healthy side.

What I miss:

My Bikram practice.

Symptoms:

A little moody. Tired earlier at night (I know because I often fall asleep during tv shows which I normally wouldn't). Feeling a little sluggish at times. No nausea. Pregnancy brain like crazy...it's scary sometimes haha.

Movement: 

Way too early.

What I am looking forward to:

Our trip to Switzerland coming up in August. It will be Maia's first time there.

Milestones: 

The last chapter of my dissertation...sigh.

Thought of the week: 

I need to spruce up my garden this week. I've been busy with work so I haven't spent much time out there lately. Also, I think my garden never looks good in the summer. A lot of my plants aren't blooming this time of the year and all the rain makes everything look a bit tired with all kinds of weeds sprouting up. So discouraging. At least all my caladiums are in full bloom and I'm planting more bulbs on Thursday. Yay for that!
