Today we are 11 weeks along and just started announcing your presence to family this weekend. Though, you are wasting no time in making your presence known. By about 7-8 weeks my pants were feeling a bit snug and at about 9.5 weeks, my belly started becoming noticeably rounder. I'm wearing maternity jeans already; they're a bit big but regular jeans with belly band is just uncomfortable. For the last week especially it's been quite difficult to figure out what to wear so that we could hide your presence until able to tell close family first.
Some memorable dates for you thus far:
Positive pregnancy test August 27
First midwife appointment October 5
First trip to Disneyland September 26
Estimated due date May 7, 2017
Yes, you read that right! Your grandma, dad, big brother and I took a trip to California at the end of September. We had great fun in Disneyland with your big brother and we can't wait to take you when you can enjoy it with us!
At 11 weeks you are approximately 4.1cm from crown to rump and weigh 7-8g, which is about the size of a fig. I love the fruit / vegetable comparisons for baby size; so fun! Other than looking quite pregnant already, I'm feeling mostly good. I've been very tired, as in falling asleep on the couch most nights tired. I've also felt a bit sick, which seems to hit mostly in the evenings. Thankfully it hasn't been bad at all. I'm hungry just about all the time. Just the same as when I was pregnant with your big brother, vegetables are difficult to eat right now. All I want is hearty food like hamburgers, fries, potatoes, meat, bread, etc. My will power is basically gone so I've already gotten fast food several times because it is just so satisfying right now!
Baby, you are so loved and we are excited to see you grow and to meet you in May. Your big brother is a very busy little guy, so you better start preparing to keep up with him!
