Its official! Word is out! Nick and I are expecting our first bundle of joy in February of 2013!! We are SO EXCITED and feeling SO BLESSED because I was really starting to doubt that we would be able to get pregnant because of my PCOS. But we are SO greatful that we are!
So I'm a little far behind on blogging about the first few weeks of pregnancy cuz I have been so sick but hopefully I get caught up!
How far along? 9 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I've lost 10 lbs because I haven't been able to keep anything down.Maternity clothes? My Mom took me shopping to Motherhood Maternity when they were here for vacation and I got some super cute clothes!! Thanks Momma!
Stretch marks? Not really any... I can see some wanting to come though :(
Sleep: Not so great. I wake up sick and then I have a hard time getting back to sleep :(
Best moment this week: Ummm.... I've been soo sick so I don't know that I have one.
Have you told family and friends? We have told close family and some friends.
Miss anything? Feeling good
Food cravings: NONE everything makes me sick well except for otter pops!
Anything making you queasy or sick: EVERYTHING. But especially jalepeno jelly with cream cheese for some reason. and smells.... holy moly everything STINKS!
Have you started to show yet? No
Gender prediction: I really want a girl and Nick wants a boy but he thinks its a girl right now.
Belly button in or out? In
Happy or moody most of the time: Moody, only cuz I haven't felt good.
Looking forward to: Not being sick 24/7
We just told the world! lol!! We put this on facebook and on our family webpage so now pretty much everyone knows! We got to go to the doctor to get our first ultrasound and now I am 10 weeks along!!
How far along? 10 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I've been feeling much better so I'm only down 8 lbs. (gaing 2lbs a week seems like a lot.... eeeek!)Maternity clothes? Not wearing them yet.
Stretch marks? still none.... well no more than I had before I got prego lol!
Sleep: OOO so much better! I have started taking unisom, which is a sleeping pill with vitamin B6 to help with the nausea and I have been sleeping great!
Best moment this week: We got to see the baby on the ultrasound for the first time!!!!
Have you told family and friends? yes everyone knows now!
Miss anything? My mom... its hard being pregnant and not having your mom around.
Food cravings: Arbys and Taco Time!!! sadly, where we live... those places don't exist :(
Anything making you queasy or sick: not really now, thank goodness! but the thought of jalepeno jelly with cream cheese still makes me want to vomit
Have you started to show yet? No
Gender prediction: After seeing the ultrasound, Nick and I both got the feeling that its a boy... but I guess we will wait and see
Belly button in or out? In
Happy or moody most of the time: I think I've been a little happier this week
Looking forward to: My next appointment and finding out the gender!
This week I got a phone call from the doctors telling me that I am on their High Risk pregancy list so Doctor Amon wants me to see another docotor who is a specialist and that I will need further testing .... Ya super stressed about that but I'm hoping that seeing this doctor will make me feel a little more at ease about everything.
How far along? 11 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I haven't weighed myself but I'm pretty sure I've gained a few more lbs backMaternity clothes? Not yet
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I have my days... some good. some not so good
Best moment this week: I don't have a specific one but I have loved that I can pretty much eat whatever and not felt super sick.
Miss anything? Still missing my mom
Food cravings: Taco Time... I went out of town and we ate at Arbys and it tasted SO GOOD!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Smells have bothered me a little bit but not any food really
Have you started to show yet? No
Gender prediction: Still thinking its a boy... Nick isn't quite sure lol
Belly button in or out? In
Happy or moody most of the time: I've been moody kinda because I've been really tired and grogy. We have mold in our house too (we are trying to move out) but I think the mold might be making me feel not so great and I'm definitly stressing out about finding somewhere to live.
Looking forward to: Moving into a new place and finding out the gender.
Congrats to you guys! Having your first baby is such a fun adventure!! You will be amazed at how much stronger your relationship will be when your little one comes. Congrats again! Good luck on the gender, of course I know only boys but I know girls are just as fun!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I 'm sorry you've been sick, it's the worst. And I know how hard it is to be pregnant and not be around family but this little baby will bring you and Nick do much joy! Just focus on that! Congrats again! Good luck in the next few months!
