Here's me, trying to be optimistic

Eric and I found out on February 12th that we are expecting! We were trying to keep it quiet until we saw our little dinosaur on an ultrasound, but it somehow got out to the whole world. Here's hoping everything works out and I don't have to untell the world...

How far along? 9 weeks 3 days
Weight gain/loss: No clue. I don't go back to the doctor for another 2 weeks and we don't have a scale... My pants don't fit right and I have gone a notch (almost two) bigger on my belt, but that, my friends, is baby bloat.
Maternity clothes? I bought some nice nike capri workout pants that are elastic in the waist. I don't think I'll be brave enough to buy maternity clothes until I know Rex will continue to grow
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep? Yes, please!
Best moment this week? The one day I felt sick.
Movement: Not yet. But I think every now and then the baby presses on a nerve or something because I feel a pinch
Food cravings: I see food, I crave it
Gender: No idea.
Belly button in or out? Still in.
What I miss? My symptoms... Nausea mostly. It was the only thing keeping me sane...
What I am looking forward to? April 12th... and then April 16th. Hopefully everything is great
Milestones: Making it past 6 weeks... then 7... and 8... Every day is a milestone to me
What I'm nervous about: Another loss.
