It's our anniversary and I am 11 weeks today! We officially have announced the pregnancy! Whoop! AND I haven't had any bleeding since the last big scare two weeks ago so it looks like little baby Shellhart does want to stick around - yay!
My pants are starting to get so tight - I have started to do the little hair tie trick where you loop it around your jean buttons so you don't have to button them up all the way. The other day I had Brandon squeeze me into a pair of jeans.... That didn't work for too long since half way through a Target trip I said 'screw it' and unbuttoned them anyway. I have a little pudge coming out - friends and family notice it. He he.
It's also really hard to eat anything these days. Certain kind of junk food like donuts and licorice sound amazing, but that won't make the doc too happy so the BRAT diet it is. I'll eat one thing one day and the next it sounds awful, so I am running out of things to eat - it's frustrating.
We actually went to Fall's Terrace for our anniversary dinner, but nothing looked good! Poor Brandon just wanted a nice steak. I nicely explained to the waiter that I was 11 weeks pregnant and although everything looked delicious, steaks and chicken would just be too rich for me. So, gulp, I asked to look at the kids menu since a grilled cheese sandwich sounded AMAZING! Apparently you have to be under 12 and under no circumstances can order off the kids menu. Ha ha! Awkward... So we left, and good thing too! We went across the street to Pellegrinos where I could snack on bread and pasta - plus Brandon could eat his steak. yay!
I also keep finding the CUTEST baby clothes and its hard not to buy the store out. :( I have bought a few bargins so far (I try to keep onsies at $1.25 or less and sleepers at $3 or less) and put all the other cute stuff back until I actually know a gender. Although, I wouldn't put it past me to put my cute baby boy in a pink jumpsuit or my sweet baby girl in a dinosaur onsie. ;) Who's counting anyway, they'll still look so cute! Lol.

How far along? 11 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 5 lbs or so (losing and gaining all the time)
Total weight gain/loss: 5 lbs or so (losing and gaining all the time)
Pants fit? No! So tight!
Maternity clothes? Not wearing any yet, but I have a few that I collected over the years :)
Pregnancy symptoms: Bloating - Feeling much more nauseated and some vomiting (hungry all the time, but sick all the same) - Lots of cravings, I like one thing one day and hate it the next. Makes it hard to eat anything and I am so hungry! - Still peeing A LOT - Still tired all the time.
Sleep? Not very well - I am up a lot at night to pee and I have strange dreams. Soo tired.
Best moment this week: No bleeding - yay! *happy dance*
Miss Anything? The other day I really wanted a nice cold Dr. Pepper and I still want that COLD all American sub!
Movement: Nope
Food cravings: Donuts, chicken strips, water
Anything making you queasy or sick: greasy fried chicken, heavy drinks like soda, bacon, hot dogs, red meat
Have you started to show yet: A little, but it's just the bloating. People who know about the pregnancy notice my little pudge, lol.
Gender prediction: Still a boy
Happy or Moody most of the time: Still feeling happy and silly, but Audrie told me the other day that I am definitely acting very 'defiant' about certain things lately, but in a good way :) ha ha! :S
Looking forward to: Finding out the gender so I can buy all those cutesie things! So for now I have been just buying both boy and girl stuff :)
Last Doctor Visit Update: I had my BIG official visit with the nurse last week where we discussed nutrition, baby tests and insurance stuff. It was exciting to get the low down, although the nurse was a bit ... 'bossy.' I'll have to learn to be a good patient.
