Ten Weeks

Double digits! No longer embryos! Full time maternity pants! Welcome to week ten.

I snapped photos before I ran out the door to meet some friends Saturday. I didn’t even look to see how they turned out & sadly the front facing shots were really blurry. Clothes in the photo above are courtesy of Suzanne aka pretty swell {thank you!}.

How far along? Ten Weeks today.

Maternity Clothes? Heck yeah! I bought a few more & sweet Suzanne of pretty swell graciously passed down a bunch of pants & tops to me Thursday night. I feel so  much more comfortable in them, although there’s no hiding the belly in maternity clothes!

Weight Gain? Haven’t weighed myself but I’d think so. Will probably find out at Monday’s appt.

Stretch Marks? No.

Sleep? I added pillows on either side of me & am more used to side sleeping, so I’m sleeping better. I swear ice cream before bed helps too.

Movement? Not yet.

Genders? We hope & pray for healthy babies first & foremost. But I’d love to have boy/girl combos.

What I Miss? Doing as much as I want without being exhausted. I tried running errands after work a couple days this week & it kicked my butt a little. Of course I’m tired on the weekends too so not sure when things like cleaning, Christmas decorating & finishing up shopping will occur.

Symptoms? As long as I eat every two hours, I feel pretty darn good. I have some end of the day lower back pain which I know comes with carrying three babies.

What I’m Looking Forward to? Monday’s appointment. I can’t wait to meet the MFM doctor & hear what he says to help us bring these trips into the world.

Weekly Wisdom? Eat. Drink water {I get headaches when I slack on water}. Rock maternity pants. Comfort is amazing.

Milestones? The babies are the size of kumquats {anyone actually seen one of those?} & are now fetuses {sp?} with all their parts. My baby center app says they have peach fuzz hair & nails, swallowing fluid, can move their limbs & thus are kicking.

Thankful

Maybe I’m a week plus late with this Thanksgiving post. But I’ve been filled with thankfulness for ten weeks. Here’s my Thanksgiving weekend in photos.

Thanksgiving~ church, pumpkin pancakes, Macy’s parade, decorations & delicious dinner!

Friday we skipped the late night & early morning shopping in favor of cinnamon rolls & sleeping in. Mom, Nana & I still got a few deals at belk & Victoria’s Ragpatch before enjoying a water-front seafood lunch. We celebrated Mom’s bday {a lil early} as well as kinda mine that night with cake & a few gifts.

Friday filled with family & food & thanks.

Jason & I traveled down to his parents’ place Saturday & enjoyed a day full of yummy food out, attempting to hug the new pups & visiting with the back yard geese.

Saturday & Sunday

Sunday we drove back in lots of traffic. Enough to make our four hour ride last close to six. I couldn’t help but take photos of South of the Boarder where we actually didn’t have traffic.
