How Far Along? 5 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss? 0
Maternity clothes? Actually had to pull out some maternity pants because it was too uncomfortable to be in my regular ones.
Best moment this week? Getting the positive pregnancy test!
Movement? Nothing yet!
Food Cravings? Beef
What I miss? Absolutely Nothing
What I am looking forward to? Getting my blood test results back so make sure my HCG levels are doubling and the ultrasound next week to see our little baby.
Milestones? Your embryo, which doesn't look like much more than a tadpole right now, is actually starting to form major organs (heart, kidney, liver, stomach) and systems (nervous, circulatory, digestive). Baby's presence in your uterus triggers production of HCG (the hormone detected by pregnancy tests), which triggers the production of other hormones like estrogen and progesterone, which triggers all those great symptoms you've probably been noticing!
Other notes? We are so excited to be having another baby and are blessed that it did not take us long to get pregnant.
