Week 5

How far along:  5 weeks

Pay no attention to the kid "bang banging" my booty.

Total weight gain/loss:  0

Maternity clothes:  No.  But I do wish I could pull those bad boys out and wear them!  The thighs are too loose in my maternity jeans but my regular jeans start to hurt at the end of the day.

Sleep:  When I fall asleep, I FALL ASLEEP.  I'm out like a light and constantly pushing off covers.

Best moment this week:  Lunch at Five Guys.  Bacon burger, mayo, grilled onions, extra pickles, ketchup and mustard.  By far the tastiest burger I've had in a long time.

Movement:  When running I can feel that my lower stomach is changing.  Different type of fullness and jiggle when hitting the hills.

Food cravings:  Bacon and barbecue.  For lunch one day I nuked a beef & cheese burrito and had a side of cold German potato salad.  Sounds disgusting but through in crazy pregnancy hormones and you've got yourself a happy Mama.

Gender:  Unknown.  But I think it's a boy.

What I am looking forward to:  Finding out the gender and purging the nursery!  We've already picked out an animals theme and I cannot wait to start decorating!

Weekly Wisdom:  Only run twice a week; I keep forgetting to tone my pace down.  Not worth the anxiety after my runs.
