24 Weeks

How far along? 24 weeks 1 day
Total weight gain/loss: +15 pounds (probably up more now, I just don't own a scale and haven't been to the doctor!)



Maternity clothes? Yes, they are pretty comfortable!
Stretch marks? Maybe, I can't see them all of the time but I think I spotted one the other day!
Sleep: Having a hard time getting comfortable though I don't have to get up to use the bathroom as much! 
Best moment this week: when my 8 year old cousin felt the baby! She thought it was so cool!
Movement: Yes all of the time!
Food cravings: chocolate dipped in chocolate ice cream cones! which is so refreshing in the negative temperatures ;)
Gender: BOY
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? It is still in. It looks like a little slit in my stomach! I wonder if it will ever pop out!
What I miss: being able to bend without compressing internal organs ;)
What I am looking forward to: Finishing the nursery, baby shower and meeting the little guy!
Weekly Wisdom:
Try to enjoy pregnancy, it doesn't really last that long and most of it goes by in a blur!
Milestones: Viability!!

Long Time, No Type

The SICKNESS, has finally started to lift! Hallelujah! I can eat again and things are starting to be wonderful!
I am happy to say that there was a heartbeat at our ten week appointment! It was beating at 160 bpm! It was so exciting even my husband couldn't contain his glee! I didn't cry which surprised me but I also did not want the Doc to remove the doppler! It is the most amazing, wonderful, fantastic sound in all the world! Like a little stampede of horses in my uterus! I cannot wait to go back and hear it again!

Thanks for reading!

The Sickness

Well as I entered my 6th week of pregnancy I became so incredibly ill I thought I was dying! I had to go to the ER and get meds and fluids. Now after almost 2 weeks of meds. I am feeling much better, still puking but not as often. I hope this means I have a healthy baby in there! We go to hear the heartbeat and get a bunch of bloodwork done on Tuesday November 9th. I am anxiously awaiting this date. My worst fear is that we will not have a heart beat. I am told this is unlikely considering the horrible sickness I have been suffering. So sorry I haven't updated there just isn't much to report. I couldn't write about my fun vacation because I was so sick I had to miss it :(

M.I.A

I have been sooooo busy lately! We were gone all weekend spending time with our families! It was so hard to be around them with this giant secret in my tummy! I cannot wait until I hear this heartbeat so I can flap my gums!
This weekend started spending quality time with my grandma, then I came home and took a 3 hour nap! This exhaustion is killing me! After that I had housework to do!
Sunday we went to a football game with my Father-in-law and some friends! It was a lot of fun but an extremely long day!
Now I am bogged down with school work, housework and preparing for our mini Ozark vacation coming up next week!
I promise to blog next Tuesday after my appt, until then it is going to be scattered!
Thanks for reading :)
