In other baby related news, I finally felt comfortable enough to go out and purchase some maternity tops of my very own (a special thank you to Amanda for the ones you have donated that have helped get me through to now and to Kristie who spent HOURS shopping with me!) and I took my first official "baby" bump photo...though to be honest I think the baby is still all in my pelvis so this is more like my pre-pregnancy starting out comparison type photo.
Symptoms:
Nose is still stuffy but otherwise I feel pretty much normal. May need to invest in a body pillow soon though as it is getting less comfortable to sleep flat on my stomach which is my current preferred sleeping method and then I wake up flat on my back which is a no no once the bump pops into the tummy
Food Aversions:
Nothing - hoping this stays this way for the rest of the pregnancy!
Cravings:
Nothing here either really - Boring, I know
Weight Gain:
Back to pre-pregnancy weight - will be starting to exercise again now in the second trimester and shooting for an hour of cardio 6 days a week
Great Moments/Milestones:
Making it to the official start of the second trimester....and FINALLY being ready to tell our extended families that we are pregnant come Easter Sunday!
Size of Baby:
Peach (2.9 in/0.81 oz)
The crib Eric and I love...not the bumper on it but the actual wood frame :) |
