For our first ultrasound! I am so excited! I think it will become all that more real for us. I have been having the craziest dreams too, and just being so worried that everything is ok. Nothing has "confirmed" it all except a few pregnancy tests so I can wait to see the baby and know that everything is ok. here's my nine week update:
Baby is the size of a: Gumball!
Total weight gain/loss: Minus 7!
Maternity clothes: Nope. I'm gonna be huge in the summer too, so I am holding off another month or so to start looking.
Stretch marks: From before...
Sleep: Exhausted some days
Best moment this week: Getting m/s back. It went away when I had a bad cold, but now it's back and I am glad cause that means I'm still pregnant, as weird as that sounds.
Movement: None yet.
Food cravings: Subway veggie sandwich!
Gender: We'll know in 11 weeks!
Labor Signs: None
Belly Button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
What I miss: Having energy!
What I am looking forward to: My first u/s and being closer to finding out gender
Weekly wisdom: Exercise!

Healthy
This seem like the worst time to take charge of my health and weight, considering I'm pregnant. A lot of doctors say not to worry about your weight, yet don't gain too much. This is really confusing to me and probably the reason i gained so much the first time around. From week six until now (almost week eight) I have had extreme nausea. Just a constant upset stomach, nothing sounds good kind of nausea. At night is usually when I get my appetite back, and it is usually for bland things like breads and also sweets. This is something I am trying to control though. Eating late at night just does not work for me. I have also been so tired. Like one morning I woke up at ten and by two my eyelids would not stay open! I keep reading getting out and being active can help battle fatigue. So that's what I am doing today. I also got my new workout shoes in yesterday so that is even more motivation to go. I am also going to be posting one here about some of the healthy food choices I make. Here is my breakfast this morning, and I am not a breakfast person. But I know eating breakfast can help set your metabolism for the day. A protein waffle. Now off to the gym!

Seven Weeks Today
I feel so busy lately even with not much going on. Just a lot to get done I guess. And getting used to being pregnant again is hard! Tonight I went to dinner with a friend. It was nice to get out kid free. Tomorrow my best friend is coming to stay the night and then we will be going into town to do a little shopping and see my mom. I need to clean my house and fit in a workout and school work tomorrow though. So no relaxing for me! My first appointment is on Monday and I am so excited. We don't get to see or hear the baby yet, but it just feels good to get in for something. Hoping I can get everything done because I am exhausted!
Total weight gain/loss: About 2 lbs
Maternity clothes: Nope, but I prefer leggings or sweats right now, just cause of the bloat
Stretch marks: From before
Sleep: Exhausted, but never sleep.
Best moment this week: Figuring out nursery themes for each gender, and non related my SIL had her baby boy
Movement: None yet.
Food cravings: Watermelon, I would kill for some watermelon right now.
Gender: We'll know in 13 weeks :)
Labor Signs: None
Belly Button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
What I miss: Having energy
What I am looking forward to: My appointment and being closer to finding out gender
Weekly wisdom: Take time to do things for myself.

Resolution.
I stayed up until midnight! I really wasn't sure if I would make it. I am just so tired these days. We watched 300 and then all the NYE specials and then I went to bed. I was officially six weeks yesterday, which is really exciting because 2 weeks has already flown by since we found out! In honor of it being the New Year and all, I'm going to write down my resolutions for this upcoming year.
- While pregnant work out 2-3x a week. Yoga. Walking. Whatever, as long as I am making a conscious effort to do something.
- Take charge of our finances. (create a budget)
- Grow my hair out! It seems silly, but I HATE my short hair. I keep cutting it because the in between just drives me crazy. But I will let it grow out!
- Keep up with school. I am already doing this, but I just want to stay motivated and continue to stay on top of things.
- Start my Arbonne business. This is something I really want to do and I need to commit and stick with it!
