5 weeks!

So here we are, week 5! Holy cow!


According to thebump:
Your embryo (looking kind of like a tadpole) is starting to form major organs (heart, kidney, liver, stomach) and systems (nervous, circulatory, digestive)



And baby is the size of an apple seed. Grow baby, grow!

How Far along: 5 weeks!
Total weight gain: I haven't run in a week and been eating a lot. I am staying away from the scale.
Maternity clothes: Still my fat pants. But there was one day last week I actually unbuttoned them at the end of the day because they felt snug.
Sleep: Fair. We got a new mattress, so I am blaming my restless sleep on that.
Best Moment this week: Talking names for an hour before bed.
Movement: Just gas, and some slight cramping.
Gender: No clue.
Labor signs: No, thank you.
Belly button: In
Cravings: Nothing in particular
What I miss: Being able to go skydiving or SCUBA diving - not that I was planning on doing those things (I am SCUBA certified, so that options could be there), but realizing I can't do them makes me miss them.
Stretch Marks: Nothing new
Weekly wisdom: Don't over react about little things, or it will be a long 9 months.
What I am looking forward to this week: Outing myself on the blog.

And here is my 5 week belly pic.





















Also, a fellow blogger and old high school friend, Lauren, just got her BFP last week! She is due on 10/10/10 (how cool is that?) Congrats Lauren!
eta: Haha, I was just looking at my face in this picture. I think it adequately sums up how freaked out and excited I am.

Thanks for the shout out! If you don't mind, I'm going to steal your pregnancy journal because I couldn't find one online! Hope you're having a good day!

That's fine! I've stolen this one from other blogs I've seen as well.
