Wow, I cannot believe we are already halfway through June. I know time before this baby arrives is going to fly by between summer travels, fall, and holidays. Until then, I'll just try to enjoy each week as it comes, pregnancy symptoms and all!
So here I am with my [first] 12 week bump date. There's a little format flying around blog land, so I figured I'd stick pretty close to that... because, well, it's easy :-) The left picture below is just a few days after we found out I was pregnant. The one on the right was this morning after my workout. Crazy how quickly a body can change!
How far along: 12 weeks
Due Date: January 1st, 2016
Baby is the size of: Lime
Symptoms: The queasiness has subsided. I'm hungry ALL of the time, but I also get full quickly. I am starting to gain some of my energy back. I was taking naps almost daily, but now I'm down to only 1-2 week. I try to hold off on naps so that I can sleep better at night. Some lower back pain and still breaking out like crazy! What happened to that Glow?!
Gender: Unknown. I think Girl, Steve thinks Boy. We are hoping to find out at the end of this month!
Name: We have both names fully picked out. I'm surprised we decided this early!
Movement: There have been a few times I think I have felt flutters, but nothing that I am positive about.
Nursery: It's a BIG messes of everything we haven't unpacked yet. haha.
Maternity Clothes: I can still wear some of my clothes, but they are getting uncomfortable. I have a few maternity clothes from Sadie that I've worn. Otherwise I've mostly been wearing dresses. Maxi's are my favorite. I'm trying to hold off on shopping until we visit the States.
Sleep: Finally sleeping good. I get up once a night to pee. I LOVE my giant pregnancy pillow.
Best Moment This Week: It's still all about Sadie at this point.
Missing Anything: A Beer. Or a glass of wine would be nice. Especially now that we have a grill to cook out on the weekends.
Cravings/Aversions: No Aversions yet. Craving EVERYTHING. Seriously. Food is my friend.
Health/Exercise: I'm working hard to stay on track with healthy eating 80% of the time. I've also been working out 3-4 times a week. I try to get in an upper body workout, lower body workout, yoga, and walking.
Mood: Hormones are still going a little crazy at times. I feel like I'm happy most of the time, but I have my moments. Sorry honey!
Husband: Speak of the... He has been great! He is always supportive. He's only had to drive to get me something to eat that I'm craving a few times.
Looking Forward To: Our trip back to the States in 3 weeks!
