Baby #3: 7 Weeks

I am officially 7 weeks pregnant today. Here is a little update on Baby Haines #3!

Size of Baby: 1/2 inch long (Size of a blueberry)

Weight: -1 from starting weight. Still 113.

Symptoms: Nausea Nausea Nausea. In the midst of morning sickness, and nothing seems to calm it down. I haven't thrown up yet, but I have been on the verge of it a few times. What seems to help me the most is eating frequently, a few bites here and there every hour or so. I also ordered Psi Bands (Acupressure wristbands) to see if those will help ease my morning sickness. They should be here in a few days, so I will see how they work.
Foods that are good:
Trail mix, Ritz crackers, cereal, bread, Jolly Ranchers, meat, cheeses, apples, potatoes, plain pastas

Foods that are bad:
Fresh veggies, leafy veggies, majority of the fruits.... Mostly the healthy foods that I should be eating....

I have also been tired still. Exhausted is more like it. Having two little ones running around with t-ball games and practices, church activities, photo sessions, etc... I am exhausted by the end of the day.

Sleep: The boys have been getting up in the nights, I think they are growing, so I haven't been able to get a good solid sleep at night this whole week. Whenever they grow, they tend to have nightmares, or wake up randomly in the night yelling for me. Lyndon rarely hears them, so I am always getting up. However, Lyndon has been letting me sleep in a little each morning. This morning he got the boys dressed and fed before he went to work and brought me crackers and water to help ease my morning sickness.

Cravings: None. I am just happy most days to get food in my stomach without being miserable.

Best Moment of the Week: Alden's T-Ball games. Even though I haven't been much help volunteering, since I've been so nauseous, it is still so fun to sit in the stands and watch my baby boy looking all grown up out there playing! I also enjoy every morning Alden wakes up and gives me a hug and kiss, and then kisses my belly to tell the baby good morning.

Looking Forward To: My sister and her family coming to town for the weekend. They will be here tomorrow through Monday for a little mini-vacation. We don't have much planned, just enjoying each others company. We haven't seen them since Thanksgiving.

7 Weeks Down... 33 To Go!
