no belly just yet.... a teeny tiny one to match the teeny tiny baby growing.... so what is new with me and this body so far?!
1. i am craving healthy food like sandwiches with tomatoes and sprouts.... i am allergic to tomatoes so i get sores in my mouth (along with itchy ears and throat) but i have managed to eat almost 2lbs in less than a week....
2. all but one pair of pants fit me still... i don't think i will need maternity clothes for a long while....
3. my love for coffee has lessened... i cannot stomach too much in a day (good though!) and if its foldgers?! my stomach says "no!"
4. the tiredness has gotten better but the queasiness seems to be lingering just a tad
5. i missed my first doctor appointment with my o.b. i missed my WIC too... i thought my appointments were on thursday and all of them were on wednesday... so i can't hear the baby's heartbeat until next week friday..
this was me last time around, near the end.... yes, the bowl of ice cream is sitting on my belly... and yes, that is a bunch of art supplies in the background in my living room.... my studio became diego's room (before we bought this house) so the living room was full of my art products- it looked messy and now i think i became a bigger clean freak.... back to the belly, i was about 8mos here and yep, i gained more than enough weight! this time around, well, it's different.... but eventually, i will have a big belly again...
Glad you're getting a bit more energy now, and yuck on the queasiness! But your belly is cute! :) Does Diego know what's going on yet?

aww....ellia, your growing tummy is so cute! =D
btw...i love that the bowl of ice cream was resting on your stomach. my husband always says he can't wait until i'm pregnant and he can rest something on my tummy! :p

Best wishes with the new baby Ellia!
They are our best project, I often find myself looking at my kids in awe thinking, "I can't believe that I made that". :)
Amazing!
Enjoy the belly..
