Almost 10 Weeks


It will be 10 weeks on Tuesday and I feel great. The morning sickness is gone for the most part. I still find myself hungry all of the time. Andrew is worried that he'll gain as much weight as I will during the pregnancy. I need to stop being a bad influence encouraging more desserts than usual.

Today's weight = 116 lbs.

New Pants at 9 Weeks, 2 Days?

I had a difficult time buttoning my pants this morning. I think it's a little early to shop for maternity clothes. I have a wide range of sizes in my closet from 2-10 for my figure that has fluctuated since college. Unfortunately, the majority of my nice, teaching clothes are in the 2-4 range. Ugh.

Almost 9 Weeks


I began feeling much better this week. I still get morning sickness from time to time, but it isn't constant. My grandmother, Marge, passed away yesterday and part of me really wanted to tell people that Baby Garrett is on the way to lift their spirits, but we've decided to wait. We also sold my car yesterday. Were going to see how long we can manage with just one car, then look for a family car. Not a mini-van, but maybe a hybrid or SUV. We'll see.

Today's weight = 118 lbs.

Relief from Morning Sickness

I may be speaking to soon, but it appears that my constant nausea has subsided. Whether it is a temporary change or not, it is welcomed. I haven't felt sick since Sunday morning! Yay!

Almost 8 Weeks



I felt sick all last week. I thought it was going to let up on Friday, but I was mistaken. It will be nice when we tell people so I don't have to pretend to feel well. Our plan is to tell everyone on Brian, Andrew's dad's, birthday, September 3rd. We think it will make a wonderful birthday present. My weight doesn't appear to be changing, but I feel pretty bloated and I know I'm eating a lot more than I normally do.

Today's weight = 117 lbs.
