6 weeks!

With everything we've gone through in the past, I can't even tell you how exciting it is to reach another "week" mark...even if it is only 6 weeks, and there's technically 34 more to go! 

No belly picture today, b/c really it looks no different than last week. 

And now for the 6 Week Pregnancy Progress:

How Far Along? 6 weeks, boo-ya (we've never been here before!)

How Big is Baby? The size of a lentil
Weight Gain? still +5 overall since stims, none this week
 
Maternity Clothes? No change from last week, still rocking my stretch pants and Bears sweats 24/7 when I'm at home...and making the stretch pants look cute when I go out : )
Belly Button (in or out)? In
Sleep:  Really, really tired this week, with no energy at all.  Falling asleep early, but also waking up at weird hours of the night not able to go back to sleep for an hour or two at a time...stinkin' pee trips waking me up!
Cravings: Indian food (particularly chicken makhni, basmati rice and naan!), cottage cheese with tomatoes and himalayan pink salt, green veggie juice. *the cravings seemed to be really specific this week..but they were strong!*
 
Aversions: Still red meat, chocolate, really anything sweet (its starting to weird me out how much I seriously do not want sweets!?!?)
What I Miss: Sushi, dirty martini, red wine
Symptoms: There were 2 days this week that I was really nauseous pretty much from the time I woke up til I went to sleep, otherwise just being tired and still the sore boobs (although wearing a bra at night has really helped this week!).
Movement: Definitely not, too early!
Best Moment of the Week: Getting a sweet little package in the mail from some of our very best friends! Thank you Megs & Eric! Now we just wait to find out which one we can use : )

Worst Moment of the Week: Working  the 4pm to midnight shift and getting home at 2 am.  It certainly beats the 16 hour 4pm til 8am shift, but man it's still rough!
 
What I'm Looking Forward To: Seeing the little one again in one week, and hopefully hearing it's heart beat (although it was super cool seeing it flicker today)!  I was so nervous today focusing on whether one or both made it, I didn't get to fully take it all in and enjoy it.  So I am looking forward to soaking it all in next week.
