Honeymoon week!! This week has been spent relaxing and adventuring through Phuket eating delicious food, riding elephants, feeding baby tigers, kissing snakes, snorkelling with Nemo and sharks (Bruce perhaps?!), watching freaky (gross!) shows in Patong and for poor Nick... Battling gastro for 2 days ( that's what he gets for ordering a milkshake in Thailand!)! My morning sickness has GONE! Besides a little upset belly from the different food over here I am feeling fantastic and full of energy but we will see how long this energy lasts once the 5am starts at work begin next week!
My bump is actually.. Bumpish! I can feel my uterus in my belly now. A really hard curved bulge under my belly button. I love to lay in bed with my hand on it and hope that if I lay quietly enough I might feel Baby T... No luck yet! But it feels a lot more real now that I can feel where Baby T is!
Here is my bump.. Definitely filled out a bit more I think! I am beginning to lose my waist and feel a little 'soft' although that could be all the yummy food I have eaten!
What is the baby up to this week? I am rapidly closing in on the end of my first trimester and our little peach size baby is probably just as fuzzy as a peach with a fine layer of hair all over Baby T's body! The vocal chords are developing ready for us to hear the first cry in less than 6 months (oh I can't wait!!) and all the connections between the brain, nerves and muscles are all formed!
Maternity clothes? Not yet but I have bought lots of stretchy pants in Thailand that will hopefully see me through until I am a huge whale!
Stretch marks? Nope!
Sleep: Plenty! This week has been amazing! Waking up next to my husband without an annoying alarm at 4:30am!
Best moment this week: An Australian lady on our elephant trek tour commented that she thought I was pregnant!! I think I was bloated BUT it felt nice that someone else had noticed! We also bought Baby T his or her first singlet and if its a girl we bought a cute little tie dye jumpsuit that can transform into into pants too (if Baby T turns out to be a boy... We figured we have Sarah or Teaghan's baby that could be a girl!.... Figured we had good odds of atleast one of us with a girl)
Miss Anything? Nothing at all pregnancy related but I miss our home and our puppies and 'normal' food!
Movement: Nothing yet :-(
Food cravings: Coffee actually! I cut out caffeine a couple of months before we started trying and haven't felt like it since (mainly because the smell was gross to me) until now. But no coffee for me.. So will stick to inhaling the fumes from Nick's morning coffee!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing really... Bit off in my belly and the smells here are so strong that I find my stomach in my mouth quite a few times a day!
Have you started to show yet: Definitely a lot more filled out and rounder but from am outsider I think it would just look normal.
Gender prediction: No idea now. I had the strong girl feeling initially but now am not sure!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Happy or Moody: Happy! Have had a fantastic week with my husband (hard to believe I have been a wife for over a week!) and can't wait to get home and start to focus on our little family (rather than the wedding)!
Looking forward to: August 28th when we have our 20 week scan and hopefully find out the sex!
Well that is all for this week!
Love from us (all 3 of us) xxoo
