10 weeks!
Baby is a fetus! We have had a few rough days over the last couple of weeks but now we look forward--baby is the size of a prune!
Current stats:
Weight Gain: About the same as the last few weeks. I haven't been very hungry, especially at the end of the day. Maybe 5lbs since I had the FET in December.
Cravings: Similar to the last pregnancy, I'm craving a lot of beverages: caffeine-free soda (cherry 7-up), malts (any flavor), cold water, small coffee, decaf teas, etc. For foods, I did have a cupcake craving the other day as I drove by the local cupcake place. I bought four cupcakes but it took DH and I four nights to eat them. We each had half per night.
Nauseous: On and off over the last week and a half. Mainly in the morning and evening.
Belly touches: DH only. I'm not big on that to begin with. I'm trying to enjoy the idea of it since this is the last time. :)
Feeling: Tired and a bit cranky. Chasing after and taking care of the boys all day is beginning to wear on me. I'm mentally and physically exhausted. I also have RLP throughout the day which usually stops me in my tracks.
Boy or girl: I have begun to feel good with either option. There are many benefits to both. DH is saying "girl".
Emotional state: Kinda cranky and feeling a bit detached. I miss my Zoloft-- I could hug it. This Winter SUCKS. I feel like we get snow every other day and have had one of the coldest Winters in 20+ years. We are stir crazy. Even the boys' Y class has been canceled twice due to the cold.

Movement: Nothing yet. Just "little Squishy" hip-dancing on the u/s sans.
Told anyone yet?: DH has had to tell the principal at his school from day one--and had to tell her 'fill-in' on Thursday because of the bleeding situation. I also told a friend of mine who is also preggo since she knew about the FET. (She works at my Pharmacy and knows every med I take). We are planning to tell family this weekend and other people around Valentine's Day.
Maternity clothes: I bought one pair of black stretch pants and two dresses at Destination Maternity a couple weeks back. I've worn the pants but the dresses will have to wait for Spring.
Baby purchases: I've tried to resist until I know the sex of the baby. We have SO MUCH boy stuff. There are a few girl clothing items I bought months/years ago in hopes that one day I would have a girl (by whatever means).
Nesting: Until people know, I think it would be hard. (Outside of basic cleaning). We have to turn the office or guest room into the nursery.
