8 weeks

(This post will be all about pregnancy.  If you don't feel like reading about that right now, I completely understand.  I'll write about something else sometime.)

Total Weight Loss/Gain:  -4 lbs.  (I'm counting my "starting weight" as what I weighed the morning before our embryo transfer, which is only 0.4 lbs less than what I weighed the morning of my first OB appointment.)

Maternity Clothes:  No.  My regular clothes are actually fitting more loosely than they were a few weeks ago, due to the weight I've lost.

Stretch marks:  I've had stretch marks for years from growth spurts and weight gain.  I don't have any new ones related to pregnancy yet.

Sleep:  For the first time in my life, it takes me a little while to fall asleep, even though I go to bed EXHAUSTED every night.  Once I'm out, I sleep soundly for 8-9 hours.  (And I'd love an afternoon nap, too, but don't have time or opportunity for one most days.)

Movement:  Nope, much too early.

Cravings/Aversions:  No cravings, but I have many, many food aversions.  I usually eat a pretty varied diet, but most things I normally would eat gross me out now, and basically anything with a scent or spice to it is out of the question.  (Hot foods are worse, too, except some soups.)  I have been subsisting on cheeses and yogurt, wheat bread, soups and potato chips for the most part.  On a "good" day, I try to eat some lean meat and veggies or fruit.

Gender:  Don't know yet, too early.

Symptoms:  In addition to nausea which lasts most of the day (though no vomiting yet), I have heartburn after every (small) meal or snack and feel horribly bloated if I eat a normal-sized meal.  I am tired nearly all the time.  The only time of day I feel good is for the first half-hour or so after I wake up.  (I also have mild off-and-on uterine cramps and sore breasts, but I've had those since starting progesterone.)

What I miss: Having energy.  Being able to enjoy food.  Feeling good.

What I look forward to:  Our next ultrasound on July 25.  Since the bleeding episode I had on July 13, two days after my last u/s, we've been a little worried about how Zan and Jayna (the Wonder Twins) are doing.  It will be nice to get some reassurance.

Moods:  I have been more emotional and irritable at times but mostly the same as usual, just EXHAUSTED.

Milestones: Hmm.  None yet.

Medical concerns:  Spotting/bleeding I had last week.

Sex?:  Um, we've only "done the deed" once since our embryo transfer.  MM is afraid to harm the pregnancy.  ;-)
