This may sound shallow but i always used to pride myself in being thin and I loved working out. That all went out the window when I got pregnant with K. I gained way too much weight and had no motivation to workout, and for awhile I was ok with my post pregnancy bod. But after a few nasty remarks from a certain rude ex-coworker I realized I missed my old body and feeling good and healthy. I decided to enter the Mrs. Idaho pageant to give myself a little kick in the butt to start working towards those goals, and then I find out I'm pregnant. It's funny how things work like that! I couldn't be more happy, but I determined to be much healthier this time around. Today I went to the gym and it did take a toll on me, but I think it was so worth it! I have a feeling its going to be so hard to stay motivated, but I want to walk at least 3x a week. Wish me luck! Also I found a new pregnancy fill in that I'm going to do every week cause I like this one a little better!
Gender: About 14 weeks until we know!
Weight Gained: None I'm hoping!
Stretchmarks: Previous ones only.
Belly Button: In.
Workouts: Walked on the treadmill for 15 min and then the bike for 15, I'm also going to start doing a prenatal yoga dvd at home.
How you're feeling: Pretty stressed out, but trying to calm down and look at the positives! And very tired and crabby!
Sleep: Pretty good.
Side effects: Nausea here and there. Exhaustion and I have to pee all the time! Also bad backaches.

August 2012
So we finally told the family and then told friends that we will be expecting a baby in August of 2012. We are so excited! I will be six weeks on saturday and I am anxiously awaiting our first appointment on the 9th. It is so different on base! I miss my old OB so much. The whole pregnancy with Kien was so easy (and mainly stress free). But I have no idea what to expect this time around, and it makes me kind of crazy! I have no symptoms again, just always super tired. I can't wait for what's ahead of us though. B is such a great daddy so I know he will be great through all of this!
On another note...when B and I first started dating I would constantly stress out. About everything....our relationship (seeing eachother only on weekends was rough), money, jobs, school, where I would live. He had (and has) the ability to calm me down and talk me out of the stressing. But now its starting again! I am in school again, so it's keeping up with that. And money. And should I get a job?! And then there's a situation I have been dealing with for awhile. It never seems to get better no matter how much time passes. I feel like I have tried every approach in dealing with this, and I will get a few weeks or months of stress-free living and then it comes back. I just hope I find the answer to this problem soon or that something changes. It feels like one of those things that i have to let out of my control because it's something I don't feel like I will ever be in complete control of. Which for a control freak is so hard to do.
Total weight gain: None I hope!
Maternity clothes? Nope, I never wore them last time and I am hoping its the same this time around.
Stretch marks? Just from my last pregnancy, yes i was one of the very unlucky (seems like few?)
Best moment this week: Telling the family on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day!
Miss Anything? Energy and caffeine
Movement: None yet
Anything making you queasy or sick: Any meat and salad, same as last time
Gender: No idea!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? on
Looking forward to: My first appointment on the 9thHappy or Moody most of the time: Happy and kind of crankySymptoms: Tired and I pee every 10 minutesFood cravings: Bagels and watermelon, also McDonalds, but proud to say I haven't had any! Sleep: I went to bed at 9 the other night which is so early for me! I am just always tired.
