Week 12 and 13

I didn't update last week because I really didn't feel like much had changed :)



Baby size: Lemon






How I feel about being pregnant: I'm now on 7 weeks of nausea. I've started working out again and that has helped my mood.
Symptoms: I am getting more energy from working out, but nausea is still pretty constant. I try different things to improve it, but little helps
Food Cravings: Cheese Fries. Like a Mug.
Special moment: I threw up when I brushed my teeth. That was funny. Well, and in week 12 we got to hear the stuper strong heartbeat again :)
  
Next Milestone: Our next apt is in another 2 weeks. I always forget to ask what we will do at each apt, so I have no clue.
What I'm praying for: For the nausea to SUBSIDE

I'm adding this week what I'm thankful for. I'm super thankful for a doctor we know well. Kim has been so great spending time with us and answering all my quesitons. It's so great to have someone you've known for years and can make things real for you.

Week 11

Baby size: Lime




How I feel about being pregnant: Some days are finally easier!! This past week I decided I would try not to take my nasuea meds at night, thinking maybe I was past that.... yeaaaa, that was a mistake.
Symptoms: I have been more fatigued, and I think my stomach is getting more squishy
Food Cravings: Mmmm still just chips. My mind craves veggies, but my stomach still disagrees 

Special moment: Not sure we had one this week.
  
Next Milestone: Next Visit is on Tuesday! I don't know what we will do then.
What I'm praying for: For the nausea to finally completely subside and that I would not feel constantly worn out. Also, that as the stress of end of quarter comes, I am able to go with the flow :)

Week 10

Hello to all our new followers! We're so thankful for all the excitement and each of you sharing in our joy. We are thankful for such amazing friends and family who love and support us. Our child will be very loved!

Baby size: Kumquat/Prune
 


 

How I feel about being pregnant: Things have been so much better this week! I have been able to ride more, go to yoga, and my stomach hasn't been nearly as angry.... I either overdid it, or we are having an issue with my iron again, so pray we get that figured out!
 
Symptoms: I get tired and take 15 min power naps in the afternoon. I am so thankful for my job where I can go to work in an office every day and my reps are so encouraging and understanding
 
Food Cravings: Not too much, still aversions.  

Special moment: We told Facebook :) Who knew that would turn out so exciting haha. I feel like I have a big mouth and so many people knew, it was exciting to share it with the rest
  
Next Milestone: We have another visit on the 16th. I am also excited to feel better and better :)
 
What I'm praying for: Someone suggested I pray for a good eater and a good sleeper. That sounded like a great idea.

Adam is in Kansas City this weekend, so it's just the puppies and I hanging out. We miss him, but i'm excited for the fun he will have. My body is definitely starting to grow, I am thankfully still able to wear my old clothes, but I see it starting to get more difficult!
