Total weight gain/loss: still 1-3

Sleep: It's still a struggle 

Best moment this week: Honestly it's been a really rough week. This week I had gotten up with the boys one morning and gotten them ready for school, I usually obviously get up and go to the bathroom and all was fine. After my dad came to get the boys, I went back to bed until Lynlie got up around 10 which is when we get up to be able to go get Lorelai from school. Once again I went to the bathroom but this time it looked like I had started my period. I obviously started to freak out internally bc I didn't want to scare Lynlie. So I called my OB and they were able to get me in that afternoon. I was able to pick up Lorelai and take her and Lyn to my Aunts and then my friend that I carpool with offered to keep the boys after school which was amazing. 

We had an ultrasound that confirmed that baby was OK!! YAY!! THANK GOD! my bleeding was from a sub chorionic hemorrhage. I vaguely remember her mentioning this at the 6 week u/s. After talking with my new OB, bc Gaudreau no longer does OB, she confirmed that baby looked great but that I could continue to have bleeding throughout this pregnancy because of it...great. But I'm just grateful that baby is ok. 

Movement: I think I may have felt a few 

Food cravings: Nope none

Food aversions: Pregnancy is just not my friend. 

Gender: Still thinking BOY

Labor Signs: none. 

Belly Button in or out? always out.

What I miss: nothing, feeling blessed to have a healthy looking baby so far. 

What I am looking forward to: Continuing in the pregnancy.  

Size of the Baby:

Baby's now the size of a plum!As you move into the second trimester, baby shifts into the growth and maturation stage. After weeks in the critical development stage, almost all of her systems are fully formed
