How I am feeling

I had several days this week where I had very little nausea, which was awesome.  I had a scary moment this past week though too.  As we were leaving my uncle's service at the cemetery, I started having some low, sharp cramping.  It had us both pretty worried but thankfully they went away after about an hour and no other symptoms accompanied the cramps.

What do I miss

Nothing much at this point.

Gender prediction

Dave - boy.  Me - leaning back towards girl this week

Food cravings

I don't think I had any cravings this past week.

Food aversions

Everything, sort of.  Pretty much all week I would get my food ready for a meal and as I would sit down to eat I would think "this looks disgusting, there is no way I can eat this".  But, I was always able to eat so apparently it was just a visual aversion more than anything.

Highlights this week 

*I had my 12 week doctor appointment on Friday.  I was able to hear the baby's heart beat again, which was at 150 bpm.

*We have agreed on a boy's name.  Well, the first name anyway.  We haven't discussed any middle names yet.

*Not feeling pukey all the time.
