8 weeks 1 day

I keep meaning to update this as I reach each week of gestation, but I've been busy!

So I have made it to 8 weeks, I'm elated! I haven't had any problems; no bleeding or cramps. I am still very nauseous all the time, and morning sickness has hit me. So far it is nowhere near as bad as I had with Montana, so I'm happy with that much.

I still haven't been given an appointment for my ultrasound, so I decided to call the doctor's office to make a prenatal appointment--the doctor I saw at 6 weeks told me I should be seen around 8-9 weeks. The receptionist told me that doctor is now gone (she was a substitute) and my doctor still won't be back until the end of the month. I have to wait two weeks and call again to make an appointment. So I likely won't be seen until 10-12 weeks! She also said it "takes a while" to get in for an ultrasound, so basically I'm playing the waiting game this month. I just have to have faith that baby is growing.

I have grown slightly, my belly is sticking out more than usual. I can feel the little bump swelling more too!

This is the week I will tell Montana, finally! I am so excited, it feels like I've been waiting forever! Here is the shirt I ordered:



It is supposed to be here sometime in the next three days, so I'm hoping I'll have it to give her on Valentine's day. I am going to wrap the shirt with a picture of the test for her. She is going to flip! Counting down the hours now!

Symptoms:
  • Major nausea all the time
  • Morning sickness
  • Backache
  • Cravings
  • Aversion to foods/smells
