Due Date: May 11, 2013
SURGERY DATE: MAY 3, 2013 - STILL FREAKING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14 weeks to go! YIKES!
Total Weight Gain (CRINGE): 16 lbs..............................My eating has been totally OOC this past month and the scales certainly showed it!!!!!!!! Whoa! I need to get myself in check! I can't stop eating!!
Exercise:
M- Yoga & Group Power
W - Insanity
T - Arrichion (MMA)
F- Insanity
Symptoms: INSOMNIA, bloody gums when flossing/brushing and getting up two to three times a night to go to the bathroom. I am also starting to get that uncomfortable feeling of not being able to breathe as freely as before. I feel a bit more winded when going up stairs and bending over to pick up Lottie or anything off the floor is becoming a little uncomfortable.
Thyroid: Next follow up appointment is in March. Lab work came back great after increasing my dosage so hopefully I can keep my appointment in March and not have to go back before then.
Maternity Clothes: EVERYTHING is full on maternity now! My belly really shot out there these last couple of weeks. I swear I didn't start showing until I was 25 weeks along the last time around. I definitely feel like I am growing by the meal!! :)
Gender: It's a GIRL!!!!!!!!!
Movement: She is moving more and more every day. Most active times seem to be in the morning at my desk and right before bed.
Food Cravings: Oranges!!!! No lie, I am eating like 4 to 5 of them a day! So delicious! Now, if I only I can find someone to start peeling them for me!
Food Aversions: Chinese food - the last couple of times I've had it has just been BLAH!
Best Moment of the Week: Spending a little quality time w/ my BFFs for restaurant week. We met on Thursday night at Zink. We laughed and ate our faces off. It was just good to be out and about with the girls! I miss my girl's nights out here and there!
What I Miss: My sanity!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I swear this past week my hormones really got the best of me! Steve and Lottie were driving me nuts! Between the whining, crying and tantrums, I honestly just wanted to lock myself in my bedroom! Most of the time, I tend not to let it get to me b/c I know it is only a phase, but this past week really made me feel like I was going crazy. I also felt like I was the only one doing any of the disciplining, which made me bite Steve's head off a couple of times. He just laughed which made me even more crazy!
Differences Between 1st Pregnancy & 2nd Pregnancy: I know exactly when I am planning on having this baby!!!!!!! Of course, I realize there is a possibility of that not happening, but for the most part, this baby is coming on May 3!!!!!!!!
Fears/Dreading: TO TIE OR NOT TO TIE.............. Do I or don't I??????????? Since I'll be having a c-section, it is going to be very easy to go ahead and get the tubes tied while she's in there. The question is should I??????? I know only I can answer that, but if anyone would like to chime in, please do!!!! Steve is 100% saying no more babies, but I just wonder if 5 years down the road I'll regret not having anymore.
Follow Up Appointments/Ultrasounds: Next f/u appt. with my doctor is February 14. I will also have the glucose screening test to check for gestational diabetes.
Bump Photo: Sunday Brunch (Steve refers to this dress as "a bedsheet" - such a sweetheart!)
