How far along: 15 Weeks
How big is baby: Orange
Total weight gain: +1
Maternity clothes: Not yet, but I pretty
much only wear dresses and a few of my shorts that were either too big for me
or my workout shorts.
Sleep: So-so. I wake up anywhere
from 1 to 3 times a night. I do a lot of
waking up just worrying about the positions I’m sleeping in. It’s best to sleep on your left side once you
hit the second trimester, so if I wake up and I’m not on my left side I get all
concerned about it in the middle of the night.
Best moment of the
week: I made
keepsake booklets of all the cards Jason and I have sent each other throughout
the years as well as all of our wedding cards.
It was a lot of fun to read through these again. The best part was that I found two Bed Bath
and Beyond gift cards I had forgot to remove from some of the cards from bridal
showers, so that was a nice surprise.
Food cravings: nothing. I've been enjoying veggies more though so
that’s a plus.
Food aversions: Pasta is my biggest aversion right now. Also, I really do not
like sweets right now.
Symptoms: Well, I had a return of the nausea. It had been under control after I started
taking Zofran. But, zofran had some
pretty nasty side effects with me so I had to stop taking it for awhile to get
everything back on track. About a day
after I stopped taking it I threw up a few times, so that was fun.
Still pretty emotional
this week.
Movement: Nope
Gender: We may have agreed on both a girl and boy name this week! That was pretty exciting.
What I’m looking
forward to: Kendall’s wedding is
this weekend! Yay! Couldn’t have come soon enough! A few more weeks and I’m not sure I’d still
fit in the bridesmaid dress.
What I miss: Feeling good about my
body… I've had a rough time with body image this week.
Next appt: September 10th
Workout/Fitness: I did a few smaller workouts this week. My back has been bugging me a bit, I’m not
sure if I overdid something with lifting weights last week, but I haven’t been
totally comfortable in my workouts this week.
Names?!? I need to know these. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are growing a baby!!! Do not think about your body image, I know it's easier said that done, but the beautiful baby in you needs room to grow!
I'm with Kim! Your body image is an image of the perfect and beautiful process of bringing life into this world. What a magnificent picture you are to me!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet sweet husband, and great sister! And truer words were never spoken! You look beautiful! Even in your pictures! I sure wish I could hug your neck though!
