13-14 weeks pregnant FO SHO!!!!

The second trimester is finally here, the sickness is sticking around for it as well:(

How far along? 13-14 weeks pregnant. Typing this I am 16 weeks pregnant, so let's hope I can catch up before 17 weeks!

Total weight gain: Pre pregnancy weight 135. Now around 139-140. I have been losing weight due to all the puking, so let's hope that ends soon!

Maternity clothes? I have been wearing maternity pants, shorts, sweatpants. I have some shirts that will still fit me for a while, and some skirts. I definitely need maternity pants though, things are tight around the waist!

Stretch marks? No new ones, still have my faded one's from Rylan's pregnancy though:)

Skin, Hair & Nails: My nails have been growing like crazy, my skin is pretty clear. I do have an ugly pimple taking over my forehead now though. My hair seems to be growing fast!!

Sleep: Sleeping has been a bit uncomfortable. Not only am I exhausted, I cant get comfortable! My back hurts, feet hurt, and need pillows everywhere to get any sleep. This has alot to do with working too...wears me out! 

NEED a bigger bed ASAP.

Best moment this week: BABY MOVEMENT!!!!

Miss anything? Being able to smell cooking food and not want to vomit! Missing all the foods I love, but cant stomach. Missing a day where I don't throw up at least once!

Movement: I feel like I may have felt some flutters at 13 weeks!!! I felt what I thought was the baby flutter around when I was sitting in the recliner relaxing. I got the doppler out and put it where I felt the flutters and found the heartbeat instantly! At 15 weeks now, I definitely feel baby move!!!

Food cravings:These past few weeks have been hard. No cravings really, but more of finding what CAN I eat? Everything sounds, smells, and looks completely horrible! Nothing seems to please my appetite. I have been craving chicken noodle soup. Good ol Campbells! Peanut butter is top of my list as well! Pizza sounds good, and In N Out burger! Mexican food!!! Although I threw up my mexican food lunch in chunks:( still sounds good though! Yum! (So much for my veg diet right now)

Rylan LOVES chips and salsa!!!

Anything making you queasy or sick:Everything is making me quesy or sick. Every little smell makes me want to throw up! Rinsing Rylan's poo diapers is horrid! Cooking dinner is hard. I am sensitive to everything, it's ridiculous! I throw up every morning at least once, more often 2-3 times. I feel sick alllllll day long!

Gender: Don't know yet! Hopefully soon!


Labor signs: No way!

Symptoms: Backaches, exhausted, short of breath, peeing every 20 minutes(although, sometimes I go forever without peeing...which is weird) heartburn, emotional,scatterbrain...(is that a symptom?)..ha. GAS. Oh my how I have forgotten the gas during pregnancy. Lots of nausea. Moody. And happy.

Belly button in or out? Making it's way out already. I have an innie/outie type belly button, so it's no surprise it's poking out so soon!

Can you see your toes? Yes!

Happy or moody most of the time: Ive been pretty moody. But mostly happy. And tired.Very emotional. Everything makes me cry!

Looking forward to: Knowing the gender!!! My belly bump to pop out!Feeling movement all the time. Being able to eat. Eating everything in sight!!! (not everything, but going without real meals and puking all the time is getting old im ready to EAT EAT EAT...hopefully mostly healthy foods)!

I am 16 weeks while writing this, week 17 is on it's way!! I cannot believe how fast things are going!
My first midwife appt is July 30th!!!! SOOOOO EXCITED!

Much love, 

xoxo

Sleep: Sleeping has been a bit uncomfortable. I sleep on my stomach, and now have gotten to a point where it's not comfortable to. I have to use a pillow in between my legs, and behind my back to ensure I am comfortable. Also, it's more comfortable on my right side, but I try to sleep on the left as much as possible.

Best moment this week:Rylan recieved a medal at The Little Gym!!! He is so happy about it too:)

Miss anything? Being able to smell cooking food and not want to vomit!

Symptoms: Backaches, exhausted, dizzy when I stand up too fast. Off and on loss of appetite. My nipples are SO sore. Everytime Rylan latches I have to take a deep breath. It doesn't really hurt to nurse, but the latching on is horrible! I have to remind Rylan numerous times to be gentle with the boobies. Feeling queasy. Strange cravings of things I never ate before pregnancy. BIG BOOBS! I can see my belly growing quickly!

7 Weeks pregnant, say what?!!!
While I am writing this I am 8 weeks and 2 days pregnant, but I am still posting about my 7th week:)

How far along? 7 weeks

Total weight gain: Pre pregnancy weight 135. Now at 138.

I have been eating some junk lately. Dedicating myself to healthy eating and to continue to exercise!

Maternity clothes? I have one pair of stretchy type jeans that fit me, but I have also been wearing some comfortable maternity capris and shorts! Things are definitely getting tighter around the waist.

Stretch marks? No new ones, still have my faded one's from Rylan's pregnancy though:)

Skin, Hair & Nails: My nails have been growing like crazy,and my skin has been pretty clear of pimples! I feel like my hair has grown alot as well. I know the hair on my legs has been growing fast!

I have to use a pillow inbetween my legs, and behind my back to ensure I am comfortable. Also, it's more comfortable on my right side, but I try to sleep on the left as much as possible.

Best moment this week: Not pregnancy related....Rylan started classes at The Little Gym! He loved it a whole lot!! I am so thrilled to continue to go! I think he is going to really love being involved in it:)

Miss anything? Not at the moment ;)

Movement: Only gas for now. Cannot wait to feel some kicks!

Food cravings: Anything spicy or mexican food. Jalapenos, chips, and salsa!! I ate a cheeseburger...and some salmon. Not very vegetarian of me. If I continue to crave meat I will be making a trip to the health food store for organic free range meat! I do plan to continue a vegetarian diet after baby is born. Hopefully mostly veg throughout this pregnancy.I have been dying to eat anything with ranch, which is soooo weird. Normally I think ranch is disgusting...but now I want to smother a piece of pizza in it. Eww, but oh so good. Im obsessed with peanut butter and jelly on a bagel!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Smells have been intense for me. Working in the restaurant business is the worst for that. In the mornings I have a hard time getting through breakfast. I gag with each bite I force myself to eat! Luckily towards the end of the day I usually feel less queasy. I try to snack often to avoid feeling sick, but it's hard to avoid. Im not severly sick, just a little naseous. Hopefully it stays mild. Also, if I nap in the day with Rylan I feel less sick when I wake up and eat.

Gender: It's far too early, but I cannot wait to know!


Labor signs: No way!

Symptoms: Backaches, exhausted, dizzy when I stand up too fast. Off and on loss of appetite. My nipples are SO sore. Everytime Rylan latches I have to take a deep breath. It doesn't really hurt to nurse, but the latching on is horrible! I have to remind Rylan numerous times to be gentle with the boobies. Feeling queasy.

Happy or moody most of the time: Ive been pretty moody. But mostly happy. And tired.Very emotional. Everything makes me cry!

Looking forward to: Knowing the gender!!! My belly bump to pop out! Hearing the heartbeat for the first time!

I think this is right before bed, which explains why I look like a hot mess!

I definitely have a little belly poking!!!

So excited about this baby and pregnancy!!!!

LOVE

Best moment this week: Not pregnancy related, but I took Rylan to ride a train, and it made him so happy. He was the most excited ive seen him. He kept looking back at me and kissing me while riding the train as if he were saying, "Thank you mom, you're the best"! :)
