I'm Sure You Get It BUT...

I'm 10 weeks! Sorry everyone, for spamming you with baby photos, statuses, updates and blogs. I'm making NO promise to quit anytime soon.

I'm actually feeling pretty well today. I'm sleepy, so I'm due for a nap soon, but otherwise I'm content. I've been able to eat today with no issues, which is always nice. I am INCREDIBLY thirsty though; I can NOT drink enough water. I've been crying a lot, but I try to do it alone. I've been crying while looking at baby clothes; I envision my little boy or girl in these clothes and then it hits me that I'm going to be a mom. Being a mother is the one thing I know that I will be wonderful at and I'm just so anxious to start.  

I haven't actually gained any weight, in fact, I'm down two pounds but I certainly don't look like it. I'm so bloated everyday. Sometimes, for maybe a few hours, I'll feel normal. I've read in all of my normal sources that this week I can really start noticing a little bump starting to grow. My uterus is the size of a grapefruit! My books tell me that I'll probably have to unbutton pants, wear stretchy clothes or go up a size BUT I live in yoga pants and dresses, so it's not too much of an issue.

The baby is the size of a prune. It's starting to look like an actual human and it's webbing between the fingers and toes are disappearing. By next week, the baby will already be the size of a lime; they grow so fast! 

Exactly 1 week from today my family and friends will be able to experience all this and watch me grow in person. Can't wait to see you all! xo
